Says Shiva:
I alone am. No one has ever belonged to me, nor have I belonged to anyone else. No one has ever loved me, nor have I loved anyone else. I alone am [as everything. There is no other].
~ Sri Devikalottara (Jnanachara Vichara Patalah)
Papaji
The gap between breaths or thoughts or between any other two movements is always there and it has nothing to do with the movement itself. This gap is what the movement occurs in. You are the gap. Knowing this will make the difference.
~ The Truth Is, Sri HWL Poonja (Papaji)
Mooji
“I” is the password to log on to this world. Don’t trust the software of the mind. All its files are corrupt, every thought a potential virus.

Don’t go out for a while. Just sit at the [rotating] sushi table of life and see what it brings you. Don’t come to life bringing your own menu.

Trying to get rid of your ego would be like trying to get rid of your shadow. Where are you gonna put it?!

Meditation is to effortlessly turn the mind toward that energy which energizes the mind.
~ Sri HWL Poonja (Papaji)
Papaji
When you see the darkness you must be in the light in order to see the darkness. You can’t see the darkness while in darkness. You are the seer of the darkness and the darkness is the object, so you must be the Light. When you face away from the light you see only your shadow, the darkness. Turn toward the light and you will see only light, not your shadow. Turn your back on the shadow and face the light. This is up to you now. If you see the illusion you are Enlightened, but if you think that you are enlightened you are in the illusion! (giggles) So find out who sees the darkness. Who sees the darkness? To whom is darkness an object of sight? Find out now, who sees the darkness.
You must stay Quiet to find this and do not make any effort. Keep still. Then there will be no darkness. Don’t even stir a thought of the darkness in your mind.
~ The Truth is, Sri HWL Poonja (Papaji)

My body is flooded
With the flame of Love.
My soul lives in
A furnace of bliss.
Love’s fragrance
Fills my mouth,
And fans through all things
With each outbreath.
~ Kabir
I embrace you in my Heart...
Hang up the swing of love today! Hang the body and the mind between the arms of the beloved, in the ecstasy of love’s joy: Bring the tearful streams of the rainy clouds to your eyes, and cover your heart with the shadow of darkness: Bring your face nearer to his ear, and speak of the deepest longings of your heart.
Kabir says: ‘Listen to me brother! bring the vision of the Beloved in your heart.
~ Kabir
Fuelled by masala chai I'm breathing through the bittersweet lessons and challenges of Shiva's tough love, slowly discovering the art of becoming empty. I am coming undone, finding myself once again... and it is t/here, waiting with arms wide open. Shanti ♥
