Adore idols, altars, shrines, god(s), but don’t forget to adore the divine Self within. #spirituality #wisdom

Once you remove identification with form and name, all that remains is awareness. #spirituality #wisdom #mindfulness #philosophy

When the mind is still, the world that we think we know disappears and the world as is it truly is reveals itself. #wisdom #meditation #spirituality #mindfulness #philosophy

True and total freedom is not the ability to do whatever the self wants or doesn’t want. Total freedom transcends wanting and is the ultimate reality. What freedom holds the most value to you? Live accordingly and experience what is truly real and what is not. #meditation #wisdom #philosophy #buddhism #spirituality #mindfulness #freedom

When the mind has left a thought and is restrained from moving towards another thought, it comes to rest in the middle. Then, through that middle state of being, one's true nature blossoms brilliantly. - Vigyan Bhairava Tantra, verse 62 #meditation #mindfulness #spirituality #hinduism

Buddha was once asked, "What have you gained from meditation?" He replied, "Nothing”. However, Buddha continued, "Let me tell you what I lost: anger, anxiety, depression, insecurity, fear of old age and death." Enlightenment offers freedom to those that seek it. #wisdom #buddhism #spirituality #meditation #mindfulness #mentalhealth

Look into the center of change that is manifesting in your own life. There you will find the heartbeat that permeates all existence, including yourself. #philosophy #spirituality #meditation #mindfulness #mentalhealth #buddhism #yoga

We do not receive wisdom, we must discover it for ourselves, after a journey through the wilderness which no one else can make for us, which no one can spare us, for our wisdom is the point of view from which we come at last to regard the world. – Marcel Proust #wisdom #mindfulness #happiness #spirituality #meditation #philosophy

Love Is Understanding IN BUDDHISM, it is said that love and compassion are made out of one substance, which is called "understanding." If you understand, you can love. But if understanding is not there, it is impossible for you to accept and love someone. Why did he act that way? Why did he say those things? You should look deeply into these questions, and then you will see the causes of what you are dealing with. With this understanding, you stop blaming and criticizing. Your compassion is born of your understanding of the situation. #buddhism #mindfulness #love #wisdom
