regardless of our circumstances?

for future generations.
Create the legacy of a better world.

to represent the kind of legacy
you want to leave to future generations.

Beyond mind, there is an awareness that is intrinsic,
that is not given to you by the outside, and is not an idea -
and there is no experiment up to now
that has found any center in the brain
which corresponds to awareness.
The whole work of meditation is
to make you aware of all that is "mind"
and disidentify yourself from it.
That very separation is the
greatest revolution that can happen to man.
Now you can do and act on only that
which makes you more joyous, fulfills you,
gives you contentment, makes your life a work of art, a beauty.
But this is possible only if the master in you is awake.
- Osho

I never found a companion that was
so companionable as solitude.

We need to find God, and he cannot
be found in noise and restlessness.

We need silence to be able to touch souls.
- Mother Teresa

We have always found the Irish a bit odd.
They refuse to be English.

When you open up to the ultimate,
immediately it pours into you.

Now you are no longer separate -
you have found your roots.
