Ребятки, что за розовые сопли? Не ждите лёгкой жизни. Лёгкой жизни не бывает. Легко лишь тому, кому трудности привычны. Никакая победа не вечна. Вечна лишь борьба. В этой борьбе важна любая победа, даже малая. Хочешь победы- готовься к борьбе. Поражение – не конец. Кто не смирился, тот не побеждён. Бояться ничего не надо! Всё можно изменить к лучшему. Укрепляйте в себе всё живое, и в первую очередь волю к жизни, уважение к себе, уверенность в coбственных силах, честь, чувство человеческого достоинства. Воля укрепляется в борьбе. Надо запомнить, что лучше быть здоровым, умным и богатым, чем бедным, глупым и больным. Самым вопиющим недостатком является безволие. Не стойте, праздно наблюдая за происходящим, а делайте жизнь такой, как вам надо. Что сделаем, то и будет. Если мы ничего не будем делать, то будет так, как сделают другие. Жизнь не идет сама по себе. Она делается. 

Very Wise

When you want to reach a floating ball in the sea, if you swim towards it, it will go further away from you. If you stay calm and still, the waves will bring it back to you.

Lost In Thought

"Most people spend their entire life imprisoned

within the confines of their own thoughts.

They never go beyond a narrow,

mind-made,

personalized sense of self

that is conditioned by the past.

In you,

in each human being,

there is a dimension of consciousness far deeper than thought.

It is the very essence of who you are.

We may call it presence,

awareness,

the unconditioned consciousness.

In ancient teachings,

it is the Christ within,

or your Buddha nature.

Finding that dimension frees you

and the world from the suffering you inflict on yourself

and others when the mind-made "little me"

is all you know

and runs your life.

Love,

joy,

creative expansion,

and lasting inner peace 

cannot come into your life 

except through that unconditioned dimension of consciousness.

If you can recognize,

even occasionally,

the thoughts that go through your mind as simply thoughts,

if you can witness your own mental-emotional reactive patterns

as they happen,

then that dimension is already emerging in you

as the awareness in which thoughts 

and emotions happen -

the timeless inner space in which the

content of your life unfolds.

The stream of thinking has enormous momentum that can

easily drag you along with it.

Every thought pretends that it matters so much.

It wants to draw your attention in completely.

Here's a new spiritual practice for you:

Don't take your thoughts too seriously."

~Eckhart Tolle

When Overwhelmed

1. Practice acceptance – Some degree of anxiety is “normal”, healthy, and motivating. It is what helps us get to appointments on time. It’s “normal” to experience some degree of anxiety when stressors are unfamiliar, unpredictable, and/or imminent. Anxiety, in itself, feels bad, but is not harmful and always passes. Think of it like a wave of the ocean; allow it to come in and ride it out.

2. Dismiss your thoughts – We all have moments in which we increase our own anxiety by worrying about that which we cannot completely control. These thoughts are often unrealistic, inaccurate, or to some extent, unreasonable. Catch those thoughts, think about them and how they affect you, and change them to more helpful, adaptive thoughts.

3. Be in the “now” – Too much focus on worrying about what may or may not come and you will not be able to enjoy the present moment. So, schedule some time to plan for what is to come, but take in all that is your present moment and enjoy the present.

TO REPRESS ANYTHING IS A CRIME

TO REPRESS ANYTHING IS A CRIME: IT CRIPPLES THE SOUL. It gives more attention to fear than to love. And that is what sin is. To take more note of fear is sin, to take more note of love is virtue. And always remember to take more note of love -- because it is through love that one reaches to higher peaks of life, to God. Out of fear, one cannot grow. Fear cripples, paralyzes: it creates hell. ALL THE PARALYZED PEOPLE -- psychologically paralyzed, spiritually paralyzed, I mean -- LIVE LIFE IN HELL. And how do they create it? The secret is that THEY LIVE IN FEAR; they only do a certain thing when there is no fear, but then there is nothing left worth doing. ALL THAT IS WORTH DOING HAS CERTAIN FEARS AROUND IT. If you fall in love, there is fear -- because you may be rejected. Fear says, 'Don't fall in love, then nobody will reject you.' That is true -- if you don't fall in love, nobody will ever reject you -- but then you will live a loveless existence, which is far worse than being rejected. AND IF ONE REJECTS YOU, SOMEBODY ELSE WILL ACCEPT YOU. The people who live out of fear think more of not committing mistakes. They don't commit any mistakes, but they don't do anything else either; their life is blank. They don't contribute anything to existence. They come, they exist -- they vegetate, rather -- and then they die. Never be afraid. TAKE RISKS AND LISTEN TO THE HEART. Even if sometimes it says to do mad things, do them! Only then will you live the life of thrill. OSHO Believing the Impossible Before Breakfast Ch #2 pm in Chuang Tzu Auditorium
