Stillness

Even when he is still, the selfish man is busy.
Even when he´s busy, the selfless man is still.
Ashtavakra Gita__

What is what?

full interview here

Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find anything that agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.

Reflections

Sufi ancient wisdom reminds us that as soon as we are able to distinguish between the consciousness and what it is conscious of, we become aware of the separation, as we separate the mirror from what is reflected in it.

Speaking Hands

In the same way that our hands, in all their actions, display the intention of a mind moving them, it´s in the awareness of the inner Self when and where the thinking becomes truly inspired.



Recognizing this is an invitation for your real being to witness body and mind; setting pure consciousness free to know itself, even while notices or leads any fleeting thought.

Rain

The desire of a thoughtlessly living man grows like a creeper. Drifts from one life to another, like a monkey looking for fruit in the forest. When one is overcome by this wretched, clinging desire in the world, one's sorrows increase like grass growing up after a lot of rain. But when one masters this wretched desire, which is so hard to overcome, then one's sorrows just drop off, like a drop of water...
__Buddha

might we absolve ourselves, to renounce and let it go allˇ
when sunrise enlights the soul and illusion just dissolves
to countless bitter tears, forever lost after fresh rainfall

The Human Dream

If we can let go with our own fear, we can truly remove fear from the world. Because the world appears to be some kind of human imagination about ourselves.



We are here to remember our true essence, to learn how to let ego behind, and evolve togheter towards a higher state of consciousness. That´s the path to walk through, the burden to leave behind, and the light shining in us.

Beyond Words

Alan Watts says; if we think is because we're manipulating with symbols... then the ghosts in our languages are in fact the limit of our reason.



Also aims that fortunately we might not be completely lost after that, because as the Dutch philosopher Aart van der Leeuw wisely said; the mystery of life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced.

Paradox

We have bigger houses but smaller families;
More conveniences, but less time;
We have more degrees, but less sense;
More knowledge, but less judgment;

More experts, but more problems;
More medicines, but less healthiness;
We've been all the way to the moon and back,
but have trouble crossing the street to meet the new neighbour...

Awakening the Dreamer

There’s a global movement emerging on Earth, oriented to find out ways of living which will take us beyond the crises of our age into a world that truly works for all. The mission is bringing forth an environmentally sustainable, spiritually fulfilling and socially just human presence on this planet.

The Illusion

Showing pieces of the Qatsi trilogy, this video brings an interesting zoom in, from galaxies in the universe, to some of the pictures we´ve almost embedded to imagine our world.



And in spite of this mirage it is right now, precisely at this point in time, when we finally glimpse the way out off these chains, our way forward... It just happens that have to be willing to surrender what we are for what we could become.



Because the answer is not division but unity, not greed but nobility, not fear but courage, not hatred but love, not conflict but compassion.



Welcome back to you. We all are infinite consciousness, pure potential having a human experience.

Message of Hope

Here is the story of man going down the wrong path, with one day the possibility of finding the way of peace and love. A short video shaped around the knowledge and ideas of Willy Whitefeather, a man of Cherokee ancestry.

Using traditions and stories from Native American and world cultures, the film combines dreams, images and reminiscences from our collective memory to send a message of hope for the future.


Directed by Catherine Margerin, produced by Luna Media.

Seeds of Change

We as a civilization and a race of human beings are teetering on the edge of the cliff. We must examine our lack of tolerance for others, and as well no longer willing to endure more convenient masks or deliberate blindness.

It starts just opening our eyes, from there, we´ll need the sincere wish of a truly awaken world where we all can live in harmony and peace.

Its abundantly clear if one is paying attention at all, that human beings have missed the mark. In our hubris we have forgotten the earth is our home, and even our mother, as most tribal cultures consider earth to be, and as such, we must repay with gratitude, respect, and honor the gift of life.

Courage

You block your dreams when you allow your fears to grow bigger than your faith. Never fear shadows, they simply mean there's a light shining somewhere nearby. Because each time we face our fears, we gain strength, courage, and confidence.


1½min.

If I can endure for this minute whatever is happening to me,
No matter how heavy my heart is, or how dark the moment might be...

If I can but keep on believing what I know in my heart to be true,
That darkness will fade with morning and that this will pass away, too...

Then nothing can ever disturb me or fill me with uncertain fear.
For as sure as night brings dawning, my morning is bound to appear...

Spotlight & Floodlight

You are not an stranger on earth; your environment is also part of you, you're in fact all that is too.

Each one of us is at once an universal self which has the capacity to focus in so many different ‘here’ and ‘now’. When you use the word ‘I’, is really an idea about position, like ‘this’ or ‘here’, you are referring to.

Our behaviour cannot be separated of the behaviour of the rest of world, we are something that the whole realm of being is doing.

It was 1964 when Alan Watts wrote these words:
One of our general failures over the past three thousand years of human history has been not to notice the inseparability of things.
We have seen our own basic unity with the external world as the result of specializing in a particular kind of consciousness.
For we have very largely based culture and civilization on concentrated attention, on using the mind as a spotlight rather than a floodlight, and by this means analyzing the world into separate bits.
