Exploring inner space, learning, growing and helping others on the same journey.
During this uneasy time in American history, when so much is uncertain. It helps to feel your center, feel the entire universe. Accept that as a species, this is where we are.

Do what you can but maintain your center, your inner light. Humams grow from suffering, good will come from all of this.

What happened today in Los Angeles was a coup. Its a ploy to take over California and do away with elected officials. California is the biggest economic state and they're liberal, democratic.

They need to take California.

Lets not let that happen at any cost!

A positive drug story about psychedelics plus the absolute truth about human potential all roled into a comic delivery. #BillHicks
was a person who sees with clarity.

When some part of you objects to what you want, listen to it. Invite it to share its objections, even if they seem unreasonable. Ask that part of you what it wants, negotiate with yourself, with these parts of you.

Once the you work through your own resistance, your success will follow with ease.

Remember that every experience you've ever had happened inside of you. You've never really experienced the outside world, only the inside interpretation of your senses.

Because of this, you can choose how you want to think and feel. You can choose how you want to react and feel.

Every human can!

I saw a bird today atop a tree. How free , I thought to myself. To go anywhere, do anything.

Then, as i observed closer, i saw its focus was mostly on survival, not freedom.

I looked inside and realized how important it is not to allow survival to dominate my thoughts.

Give yourself peace.

When a thought bothers you, what do you feel in your body?

A pit in your stomach?
A tightening of your throat?
Zapping on your scalp?
A weight on your chest?
Tension in your jaw?

I've heard so many, everyone is unique.

Share yours!

Listening to Pink Floyd, what a fuckin' Renaissance we had in the 60s and 70s in music. Every human renaissance has come when people have their needs met.

Imagine what art and music we will create when we create a world where every human has what they need.

We can and will.

It is extremely important to take a break from the politics and suffering our nation and the world is enduring, and center ourselves.

Find peace, joy inside in memories and envision beauty in the future, even in the face of uncertainty.

What we're seeing in the world today is a mirror into the human condition.

We're looking for wellbeing, tearing the planet apart looking. We think we can take it from others with force, war, greed, power or by having things nobody else can.

It is an immaturity we seem to suffer as a species.

Love this. 100% possible to make this a reality for every single human being, not one exception. What a world we could build!
No and I love how this shows us the difference.

If a disabled friend of yours is grieving something painful and likely permanent (loss of fertility, loss of ability to walk, loss of a planned future) it is not only fine, it’s wonderful to say,

“I don’t know what to say, but I’m here.”

The inner work goes on until the very end.

Every day, you notice parts of you that need work. When something bothers you, angers you, depresses you, these parts are your work.

When you can't go on and you drop to your knees, start digging. That is where you'll find treasure.

Enlightenment is three things converging:

- Deep understanding that ALL human experience is within

- Disillusion of ego such that we feel ALL inclusive

- Holding both our cosmic significance and insignificance simultaneously.

Animals can not easily change. If your cat is afraid of the vacuum, it will likely stay that way.

But humans, we can imagine a different way. We can see new possibilities, hear and feel inner changes.

We can rewire ourselves at will.

This is not super human, being human, Is super!

Most suffering is created by people who cant find inner wellbeing. They're digging the earth frantically, like a dog searching for a bone. They're looking outward for something that is inside.

Enlightenment is simply realizing the truth of existence. It is knowing that "you" control that body and "you" control that mind and "you" are more than either a mind or a body.
