Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans.
-John Lennon
Appreciate fully what you are eating, enjoy it fully, breathing and smelling the aroma to add to the taste, chewing slowly and well, to taste more and to digest better. Discover the subtleties of taste. Gently keep bringing the wandering mind back to tasting fully what you’re eating. Feel the difference! Give thanks for the chance to be able to enjoy what you eat.
It is only when the rich are sick that they fully feel the impotence of wealth.
-Benjamin Franklin
If we sincerely want to become a liberated person, then we have to be willing to be independent in a world where so few truly think for themselves.
Nature is all-round balanced by two polar opposites. As there have been
mountains on the earth, equal have been valleys. As vast as the space is,
equally expansive is time. Here, the measure in which negative energy exists,
in the same measure positive energy also exists... It is this balance, which has
made nature sustain itself and we are in this situation today, because we have
disrupted our balance.
-Deep Trivedi
Let us not pray to be sheltered from dangers but to be fearless when facing them.
-Rabindranath Tagore
