Bright but hidden, the Self dwells in the heart. Everything that moves, breathes, opens, and closes Lives in the Self. Self is the source of love and may be known through love but not through thought. Attain this goal!
In thinking, “This is I” and “That is mine”, he binds himself with his self, as does a bird with a snare.
The self-confidence one builds from achieving difficult things and accomplishing goals is the most beautiful thing of all.
At night, I open the window and ask the moon to come and press its face against mine. Breathe into me. Close the language-door, and open the love-window. The moon won’t use the door, only the window.
Selflessness is the sign of the selfless; Bow down at the door of the selfless. The selfless are of the highest authority, The kings of the time and the wearers of the crest and crown.
The best way to find your self is to lose yourself in the service of others… All other pleasures and possessions pale into nothingness before service which is rendered in a spirit of joy.
Any caterpillar who tried to “know himself” would never become a butterfly.
We are responsible for what we are, and whatever we wish ourselves to be, we have the power to make ourselves.
If you wish to be free, know you are the Self, the witness of all these, the heart of awareness. Set your body aside; sit in your own awareness. You will be at once happy, forever still, forever free.
In reality, what you are is not that important as "are you really what you portray
yourself to be?"
-Deep Trivedi
