Quote of the Day

Correcting oneself is correcting the whole world. The Sun is simply bright. It does not correct anyone. Because it shines, the whole world is full of light. Transforming yourself is a means of giving light to the whole world.

Quote of the Day

Gratitude is the most important piece, the most powerful tool in our tool chest that we’ve been given to get through the human experience. What you resist persists. But what you look at with gratitude ceases to have illusory form.

Quote of the Day

Without forgiveness we continue to perpetuate the illusion that hate can heal our pain and the pain of others. In forgiveness we let go and find relief in our heart.

Quote of the Day

Ego is neither positive nor negative. Those are simply concepts that create more boundaries. In fact, such conclusions arise from the ego itself. Pay no attention to them. Don't go to war with yourself; simply inquire into who you are.

Thupten Jinpa Langri

For practicing Buddhists, why would you need third-person proof to show that your own practice is helping you? In the end, when it comes to spiritual practice, you are your own best proof.

Thich Nhat Hanh

We really have to understand the person we want to love. If our love is only a will to possess, it is not love. If we only think of ourselves, if we know only our own needs and ignore the needs of the other person, we cannot love.

Wild Child - Expectations

We met and it was simple

I had it all and you were the one

That would make it all okay

You made me feel so different

We had each other night after night

All my troubles went away

But of course it's just not the same

You try to hold too tightly

Everything's gonna change

Make the rules and it's just a game

I can't stop burning bridges

I'll win you over, make you my own

And then we'll both feel different

You can't possibly give what I want from you

I know I said you were perfect

I made the rules that you didn't know

All of these expectations

You can't possibly give what I want from you

So now I treat you different I made a list of all that I need

And I left it up to you I treat you like a stranger

And talk to strangers like they know me

It's your fault for all I do As if you don't suffer too

I tied up all our shit Into something that we can't undo

These are the rules I should follow too

I can't stop burning bridges I'll win you over, make you my own

And then we'll both feel different

You can't possibly give what I want from you

I know I said you were perfect

I made the rules that you didn't know

All of these expectations

You can't possibly give what I want from you

Oh it's all my fault Never meant to be so unkind

Now I don't listen when you talk

And what it comes down to is

I'm just afraid to lose something that shouldn't be mine

I can't stop burning bridges

I'll win you over, make you my own

And then we'll both feel different

You can't possibly give what I want from you

I know I said you were perfect

I made the rules that you didn't know

All of these expectations

You can't possibly give what I want from you

You can't possibly give what I want from you

You can't possibly give what I want from you

One People - Nattali Rize

Oh, yeah
Keep waking up now now
Rising up yeah yeah
Aye
Ouuu yeahhh
Babylon you hypocritic enemy
You create more problems than you got the remedy
You mislead and deceive my peoples endlessly
And then you wonder why me neva what you next to me
Your civilians are like slaves linked in servitude
And the only way you keep them is to keep them from the truth
While your institutions keep indoctrinate the youth
We hear you speak on hope and change then you leave no proof, aye
Babylon you're smart now this is more than true
But when the people wake on up
They will come straight after you
There is no escaping from the plans we got set out for you
You will see young men, women and children coming after you, aye
Life with you is an illusion not reality
And for anyone who wants some peace, you name insanity
You subdue my people with stories and fantasies
False governments, false courts, false authorities in this
Iration
All nations
One people
One destiny ouu yeahh
Iration
All nations
One people
One destiny ouu yeahh
Babylon you are a sickness to society
There is no other that could claim your notoriety
With all your chemical concoctions of variety
What you really seek is for my people to go quietly
But what they really getting ill from is your mind control
It has deminished their intelligence and numb their souls
Manipulation of the masses is your only goal
You may have succeeded but the difference is now we know
So what you gonna do without our energy
There's no way using it to make a brand new energy
Yea we infuse our mediation, our philosophys
Learning to trandsend beyond the realms of this reality, yeah
So Babylon it's over now it's time you go ooo
When one foundations are rotting you can go no more
So lift your eyes and set your sights upon that door
And get the that out our lives don't come back no more, in this
Iration
All nations
One people
One destiny ouu yeahh
Iration
All nations
One people
One destiny ouu yeahh
Music's the healer
The healer
It is the healer
Music the healer

Oh the healer
