There is a very Simple Secret to being happy.
Just let go of your 'demand' on this moment.
Any time you have a demand on the moment to give you something or remove something, there is suffering.
You're Arguing with 'What Is' - Your demands keep you chained to the 'dream-state' of the conditioned mind.
The desire to 'control'... is, ultimately, our unwillingness to just be awake.
-Adyashanti
' Be Free of Fear '...
Once you realize that the world is your own projection, you are free of it.
You need not free yourself of a world that does not exist, except in your own imagination!

See the imaginary as imaginary and be free of fear.

This is the Place of Non-Desires..
As long as You, Desire, You are trapped within Dreams..

' Mind's Natural State '...
No particular thought can be mind's natural state, only silence.

every experience happens against the background of silence.
-Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
' Two Ears and One Tongue '...
We have two ears and one tongue so that we would listen more and talk less.

The second is to recognize the inward pull.
For the rest, the stillness itself will guide and lead him to itself.

If we are true to ourselves,

By whose alphabet the hidden becomes the manifest.
Therefore, you have no need to look beyond yourself,
What you seek is within you, if only you reflect.

Understand and embrace your values, for they become your destiny.
-Mahatma Gandhi
' Your Time is Limited '...
Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life.

At the very long time upon the earth that I have served..

I am running out of sentences to form my paragraph..

' Before Us '...
By replacing fear of the unknown with curiosity we open ourselves up to an infinite stream of possibility.

leaping out of our comfort zones,
and accepting what life puts before us.
-Alan Watts

... yours is the earth and everything that's in it...
-Rudyard Kipling

Listening to music from the sixties and Chris Stapleton reminds me of 'Now'..
John Denver is now heard within my environment..
These Vibrations of Energy remind me of a Higher Reality of Thought..
Those Times of Peace and Love,

Where is the modern human ?..
What have you become ?..
The Ancient Ones' already told you..
you must diffuse your-self of 'you'..
This is the Answer that you are Seeking...
-thomas

' The Stage Was Gone '...
When I got enough confidence, the stage was gone.

And when I mastered the art of hating, somebody started loving me.

' The Motto of Enlightenment '...
Enlightenment is man's leaving his self-caused immaturity.
Immaturity is the incapacity to use one's intelligence without the guidance of another.
Such immaturity is self-caused if it is not caused by lack of intelligence,
but by lack of determination and courage to use one's intelligence without being guided by another.
Sapere Aude!
Have the courage to use your own intelligence!
is therefore the motto of the enlightenment.
-Immanuel Kant
' The Problem With The World '...
The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves,
and wiser people so full of doubts.
-Bertrand Russell
' Unconscious Cruelty '...
We must fight against the spirit of unconscious cruelty with which we treat the animals.
Animals suffer as much as we do.
True humanity does not allow us to impose such sufferings on them.
It is our duty to make the whole world recognize it.
Until we extend our circle of compassion to all living things, humanity will not find peace.
-Albert Schweitzer
' True Happiness '...
To be beautiful means to be yourself.
You don't need to be accepted by others.
You need to accept yourself.
When you are born a lotus flower, be a beautiful lotus flower, don't try to be a magnolia flower.
If you crave acceptance and recognition and try to change yourself to fit what other people want you to be,
you will suffer all your life.
True happiness and true power lie in understanding yourself, accepting yourself, having confidence in yourself.
-Nhat Hanh

but I know that it exists.

' When The Storm Is Over '...
And once the storm is over, you won’t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive.
You won’t even be sure, whether the storm is really over.
But one thing is certain.
When you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in.
That’s what this storm’s all about.
-Haruki Murakami
' A Musical Process '...
If you take the creation of music and the creation of your own life values as your overall goal,
then living becomes a musical process.
-Cecil Taylor
' John Coltrane '...
John [Coltrane] was like a visitor to this planet.
He came in peace and he left in peace; but during his time here,
he kept trying to reach new levels of awareness, of peace, of spirituality.
That's why I regard the music he played as spiritual music -- John's way of getting closer and closer to the Creator.
-Albert Ayler

Love yourself first and everything else falls into line.
You really have to love yourself to get anything done in this world.

Change your thoughts, and in the twinkling of an eye, all your conditions change.
Your world is a world of crystallized ideas, crystallized words.
Sooner or later, you reap the fruits of your words and thoughts.
-Florence Scovel Shinn
' The Subconscious Mind '...
Our subconscious minds have no sense of humor,
play no jokes and cannot tell the difference between reality and an imagined thought or image.
What we continually think about eventually will manifest in our lives.
-Robert Collier
' Spiritual Progress '...
Do not be impatient with your seemingly slow progress.
Do not try to run faster than you presently can.
If you are studying, reflecting and trying, you are making progress whether you are aware of it or not.
A traveler walking the road in the darkness of night is still going forward.
Someday, some way, everything will break open, like the natural unfolding of a rosebud.
-Vernon Howard
' The Gospel Of Thomas '...
(7) Jesus said, "Blessed is the lion which becomes man when consumed by man; and cursed is the man whom the lion consumes, and the lion becomes man."
(8) And he said, "The man is like a wise fisherman who cast his net into the sea and drew it up from the sea full of small fish. Among them the wise fisherman found a fine large fish. He threw all the small fish back into the sea and chose the large fish without difficulty. Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear."
(9) Jesus said, "Now the sower went out, took a handful (of seeds), and scattered them. Some fell on the road; the birds came and gathered them up. Others fell on the rock, did not take root in the soil, and did not produce ears. And others fell on thorns; they choked the seed(s) and worms ate them. And others fell on the good soil and it produced good fruit: it bore sixty per measure and a hundred and twenty per measure."
(10) Jesus said, "I have cast fire upon the world, and see, I am guarding it until it blazes."
(11) Jesus said, "This heaven will pass away, and the one above it will pass away. The dead are not alive, and the living will not die. In the days when you consumed what is dead, you made it what is alive. When you come to dwell in the light, what will you do? On the day when you were one you became two. But when you become two, what will you do?"
(12) The disciples said to Jesus, "We know that you will depart from us. Who is to be our leader?"
Jesus said to them, "Wherever you are, you are to go to James the righteous, for whose sake heaven and earth came into being."
(13) Jesus said to his disciples, "Compare me to someone and tell me whom I am like."
Simon Peter said to him, "You are like a righteous angel."
Matthew said to him, "You are like a wise philosopher."
Thomas said to him, "Master, my mouth is wholly incapable of saying whom you are like."
Jesus said, "I am not your master. Because you have drunk, you have become intoxicated from the bubbling spring which I have measured out."
And he took him and withdrew and told him three things. When Thomas returned to his companions, they asked him, "What did Jesus say to you?"
Thomas said to them, "If I tell you one of the things which he told me, you will pick up stones and throw them at me; a fire will come out of the stones and burn you up."
(14) Jesus said to them, "If you fast, you will give rise to sin for yourselves; and if you pray, you will be condemned; and if you give alms, you will do harm to your spirits. When you go into any land and walk about in the districts, if they receive you, eat what they will set before you, and heal the sick among them. For what goes into your mouth will not defile you, but that which issues from your mouth - it is that which will defile you."
(15) Jesus said, "When you see one who was not born of woman, prostrate yourselves on your faces and worship him. That one is your father."
' Being Saved '...
We have all heard the expression, " you are your own worse enemy",,
they say
this not knowing how True this statement is..
They are speaking of your ego, but
they do not know the deepness of this Truth..
"Being Saved", is the expression
that means that you have been saved from your "self"..
No one can save you but
your "Real Self"..
This is the Divine Consciousness that You already Are, but
have forgotten..
You have been saved from ignorance and pain when you have
dissolved the false self and Recognized the Real Self..
So, in Truth, Salvation
means Recognition of Self...
- thomas
' I control You '...
Is a 'Thing' called a self ?..
Is there a point of Consciousness that must exist ?..
Is there a reason to feel pain ?..
The ego says, yes..
The ego says;
I am the generator of thoughts,
follow them into hypnosis..
I control the Dreams..
I control You..
-thomas
' By Love It Perceives '...
For the soul’s sense is love;
by love it perceives whatever it perceives;
alike when it is pleased and when it is offended.
When the soul reaches out in love to anything,
a certain change takes place in it by which it is transmuted into the object loved;
it does not become of the same nature as that object,
but by its affection it is conformed to what it loves.
— William of St. Thierry
' Love Much '...
The important thing is not to think much,
but to love much; do,
then, whatever most arouses you to love.
— Saint Teresa of Ávila
' Truth Makes Happy '...
“It is always the false that makes you suffer,
the false desires and fears,
the false values and ideas,
the false relationships between people.
Abandon the false and you are free of pain;
truth makes happy, truth liberates.”
― Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
' Silence - Jean Klein '...
Silence is our real nature. What we are fundamentally,
is only silence.
Silence is free from beginning and
end. It was before the beginning of all things.
It is
causeless.
Its greatness lies in the fact that it
simply is. In silence all objects have their home
ground.
It is the light that gives objects their shape
and form. All movement, all activity is harmonized by
silence.
Silence has no opposite in noise. It is beyond
positive and negative.
Silence dissolves all objects.
It is not related to any counterpart which belongs to
the mind.
Silence has nothing to do with mind. It
cannot be defined but it can be felt directly because
it is our nearness.
Silence is freedom without
restriction or center. It is our wholeness, neither
inside nor outside the body.
Silence is joyful, not
pleasurable. It is not psychological. It is feeling
without a feeler.
Silence needs no intermediary.
Silence is holy. It is healing. There is no fear in
silence.
Silence is autonomous like love and beauty.
It is untouched by time. Silence is meditation, free
from any intention, free from anyone who meditates.
Silence is the absence of oneself. Or rather, silence
is the absence of absence. Sound which comes from
silence is music.
All activity is creative when it
comes from silence. It is constantly a new beginning.
Silence precedes speech and poetry and music and all
art. Silence is the home ground of all creative
activity.
What is truly creative is the word, is
Truth.
Silence is the word. Silence is Truth.
The one
established in silence lives in constant offering, in
prayer without asking, in thankfulness, in continual
love. "
' To Be Misunderstood '...
“Is it so bad, then, to be misunderstood?
Pythagoras was misunderstood, and Socrates, and Jesus, and Luther, and Copernicus, and Galileo, and Newton,
and every pure and wise spirit that ever took flesh.
To be great is to be misunderstood.”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson, Self Reliance

' Who Am I ?' ...
The question 'Who am I?'

the question 'Who am I?'
is meant to dissolve the questioner.
-Ramana Maharshi
' All You Need '...
“All you need is already within you, only you must approach your self with reverence and love.
Self-condemnation and self-distrust are grievous errors.
Your constant flight from pain and search for pleasure is a sign of love you bear for your self,
all I plead with you is this: make love of your self perfect.
Deny yourself nothing -- glue your self infinity and eternity and discover that you do not need them; you are beyond.”
― Nisargadatta Maharaj
' Grant me '...
Grant me, O Lord my God, a mind to know you,

and a hope of finally embracing you.
Amen.
-Saint Thomas Aquinas
' You Are Christ '...

Saint Teresa of Avila

' The Gospel of Thomas '...
These are the secret sayings which the living Jesus spoke and which Didymos Judas Thomas wrote down.
(1) And he said, "Whoever finds the interpretation of these sayings will not experience death."
(2) Jesus said, "Let him who seeks continue seeking until he finds. When he finds, he will become troubled. When he becomes troubled, he will be astonished, and he will rule over the All."
(3) Jesus said, "If those who lead you say to you, 'See, the kingdom is in the sky,' then the birds of the sky will precede you. If they say to you, 'It is in the sea,' then the fish will precede you. Rather, the kingdom is inside of you, and it is outside of you. When you come to know yourselves, then you will become known, and you will realize that it is you who are the sons of the living father. But if you will not know yourselves, you dwell in poverty and it is you who are that poverty."
(4) Jesus said, "The man old in days will not hesitate to ask a small child seven days old about the place of life, and he will live. For many who are first will become last, and they will become one and the same."
(5) Jesus said, "Recognize what is in your sight, and that which is hidden from you will become plain to you . For there is nothing hidden which will not become manifest."
' Your Own Self '...
Always bear this in mind:
Everything is in God's hands, and you are His tool to be used by Him as He pleases.
Try to grasp the significance of 'all is His'.
and you will immediately feel free from all burdens.
What will be the result of your surrender to Him?
None will seem alien, all will be your very own Self.
-Anandamayi Ma
' In Search of Yourself '...
You are really in search of yourself, without knowing it.
You are love-longing for the love-worthy, the perfect lovable.
Due to ignorance you are looking for it in the world of opposites and contradictions.
When you find it within, your search will be over.
-Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
' The Wise Stay Here '...
In the land of "I know," there is always competitiveness, jealousy, pretence, pride and arrogance.
It is an aggressive realm - the realm of the ego.
I say refuse citizenship.
In the land of "I dont know," the inhabitants move without conflict and are naturally quiet, happy and peaceful.
The wise stay here.
-Mooji
' The Future '...
Why should you trouble yourself about the future?
You do not even properly know about the present.
Take care of the present, the future will take care of itself.
-Ramana Maharshi
' Beingness Is Transcended '...
You must come to a firm decision.
You must forget the thought that you are the body and be only the knowledge �I am�, which has no form, no name.
Just be.
When you stabilize in that beingness it will give all the knowledge and all the secrets to you, and when the secrets are given to you, you transcend the beingness, and you, the Absolute will know that you are also not the consciousness.
Having gained all this knowledge, having understood what is what, a kind of quietude prevails, a tranquility.
Beingness is transcended, but beingness is available.
-Nisargadatta
' Your Own Mind '...
“It is a man's own mind,
not his enemy or foe,
that lures him to evil ways.”

You have to go within.
Whatever great things have happened in nature, however powerful, still they disappear right here.
These situations appear and disappear.
This is actually abstract, what is solid here is the knowledge I am.
The seen and seeing disappear.
I tell this only to those who are prepared to listen.
Whatever appears is bound to disappear.
- Nisargadatta

' Enthusiasm '...
"Enthusiasm is the mother of effort,
