What years of #meditation have done for me? I can engage in the world fully, without reactivity. I choose what I want to think and feel, with the only intention being to bring more #awareness and #wellbeing to those who have lost them. Sometimes it's me who lost them 😍 No worries, easily found 🌞

Listening to Bruce, it's hard to hold back emotions. But I know that you, we - have the power to move from aberration to sanity.
From #Sweden, and from everyone in #Europe, stay strong and sane, dear friends in the #US ❤️

We all want a better world. Do you know that the world is created right now in --your--consciousness, and that you are that consciousness, free to create it much more brightly?

Fascinating to compare different spiritual traditions and see how they express the same deep truths we all find within. In this case, Vedanta and the Kabbalah, in harmony.

Desire is stronger.
When the desire to do good arises, ego fear will do its best to fog my thoughts & feelings, and stop me from acting.
Focus on the light. Golden opportunities for good will sparkle everywhere & nothing will stop action into manifestation.

Pausing for connection.
I pause to reconnect to fullness, knowing, certainty, desire, purpose. I pause so I can return to being infinite and complete. I pause to appreciate existence and experience. I pause to deepen the love, and to spread the smile.

Sunrise Insight 9/11:
I do not fall into the trap of ego.
It will shout that this moment is wrong, that I'm broken, you're to blame, it's impossible. It will weave a net of arguments for why the light is not here.
But the sun is always here, and it is rising now.

Sunrise insight 9/10:
There is enough good for all of us.
We strive for more from dawn to dusk, all our life. It's natural to stretch towards the sun, that's how we grow.
Have confidence: the source of light is endless. Shake off the dew, open up wide to receive.

Sunrise Insight 9/9:
When I don't have clarity, I trust more.
Fog might be veiling the wisdom, hiding my true intention and purpose. But the fog is always my friend.
It helps me trust more and deeper, beyond logic, and into the heart.

I align with the rising sun.
Even if I know that rising and setting, growing and shrinking, succeeding and failing- are relative movements in the universe, even as I love it all, I still choose to rise.

Sunrise Insight 9/6:
On my morning walk, our eyes met in a space of fulfillment. Nothing was lacking.
The neediness stopped, time stopped, there was only this, and it was love.
Today, instead of chasing, I stay in the completeness we recognized together. Grateful 🙏🏼

Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far:
A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.
