Often you will get caught in your desire to find patterns in life that will give you an external validation for what you’re doing and you will use the universe to do it to yourself. So just stay with your truth from moment to moment, and get the clues wherever you can.  |

Via Sri Prem Baba: Flor do dia / Flor del dia / Flower of the Day – 15/05/2016
“Quando se permite sentar por alguns minutos, alinhando o corpo,
fechando os olhos e concentrando a atenção na respiração, você se coloca
no aqui-agora; você se coloca presente. E somente na presença você pode
observar; somente na presença a consciência pode expandir. Ao observar,
é possível perceber que existe uma canção psicológica, um fluxo de
pensamentos repetitivos com o qual você está identificado. Estar identificado
significa que isso te dá um senso de identidade. A sua consciência está
presa nesse ponto. Então, o próximo passo é dissociar-se disso. Ao
observar a mente, você deixa de ser a mente. Assim a identificação
começa a perder força.”

“When we allow ourselves to sit for a few minutes, align the body, close our eyes and place our concentration and attention on our breath, we bring ourselves back to the here and now and we become present. It is only from this presence that we are able to observe, and expand our consciousness. As we continue observing, we may perceive that there is a psychological track playing in our minds: a flow of repetitive thoughts that we are identified with. Being identified with these thoughts means that they are giving us a sense of identity and our consciousness is fixated upon this identity. The next step to be taken is to de-associate ourselves from this identity. As we observe the mind, we stop being the mind. Consequently, the identification begins to lose its strength.”

Via Daily Dharma / May 15, 2016: Beyond Language
When
in daily living we learn to return again and again to where we are in
body, emotion, and mind, we are learning to hold our language and views
lightly, to see that they are ever-evolving currents of being, that they
are not only ours but belong to everyone else as well.
