You should discover your own reality and not thwart yourself. For you have the self as your only friend, or as your only enemy.
When your sense of self is no longer tied to thought, is no longer conceptual, there is a depth of feeling, of sensing, of compassion, of loving, that was not there when you were trapped in mental concepts. You are that depth.
Any caterpillar who tried to “know himself” would never become a butterfly.
To become conscious we must become Self-aware in the awareness of the observer Self-observing.
We are responsible for what we are, and whatever we wish ourselves to be, we have the power to make ourselves.
The self-confidence one builds from achieving difficult things and accomplishing goals is the most beautiful thing of all.
Service without ideal of self…trains you to transcend all the artificial distinctions imposed by history and geography, and to realise that the human community is one and indivisible.
The best way to find your self is to lose yourself in the service of others… All other pleasures and possessions pale into nothingness before service which is rendered in a spirit of joy.
