Blame

When you blame and criticize others, you are avoiding some truth about yourself.
-- Deepak Chopra

The Wonder of the World

I don’t destroy the wonder of the world
and I don’t kill
with reasoning the mysteries I find
along my way
in flowers, on faces, on lips or graves.

The light of inquiries from others
strangles the magic spell of treasures hidden
in the depth of the unknown.

Instead
my light adorns the mystery of life –
much like the white moonlight
doesn’t diminish, but trembling,
increases even more the mystery of night,
my light intensifies the subtle horizon
with shivers of a mystic secret.

And all the unknowns
become unknowns even bigger
in my eyes –
because I love the same way
the flowers, faces, lips and graves.

Flowers

Don't wait for someone to bring you flowers. Plant your own garden and decorate your own soul.

Intelligent

"Respond intelligently even to unintelligent treatment."
- Lao Tzu

Each moment is new

“You cannot step in the same river twice” — Heraclitus
Each moment is new, each moment is fresh, life is flowing and changing every moment.

concerned with the being

a man of wisdom is always concerned with the being. a man of ignorance is always concerned with questions of doing, what is to be done.

Who are you trying to trick?

Who are you trying to trick, who are you trying to deceive? The other, God, yourself? Once you understand the wholeness of life, you will stop being cunning. You are not separate; you are not the individual; only the whole exists.

Ambition

Ambition and desire are the food of human misery.

Freedom

One should not interfere in anybody else’s freedom.
