Sophia Schliemann (wife of Heinrich Schliemann, the amateur who first
excavated the ruins of Troy) wearing “Priam’s treasure,” jewelry from
the excavation. It is very unlikely that these object actually date from
the time of the Trojan War (ca 1200 BCE).
Our anxiety does not
come from thinking about the future, but from wanting to control it.

We are all prisoners but some of us are in cells with windows and some without.
Kahlil Gibran (via purplebuddhaproject)
Il faut prendre soin de son corps car c'est un réservoir de pouvoir.
Le corps humain et un magnifique système auto-guérissant, auto-réparant
et une merveille organique qu'il faut pleinement apprécier.
Les cellules, les organes, le sang et les os sont dotés d'une intelligence spontanée, fondée sur une coopération harmonieuse.
Les PLÉIADIENS.

Meditation is the
antidote to all the poisons of your life. It is the nourishment of your
authentic nature.
I was always sweet, at
first. Oh, it’s so easy to be sweet to people before you love them.
Never be bullied into
silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one’s
definition of your life; define yourself.

Everyone makes a greater effort to hurt other people than to help himself.
Man is the most insane
species. He worships an invisible God and destroys a visible Nature.
Unaware that this Nature that he has been destroying is this God he’s
worshiping.

If a political party
does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause
that is right and then is moral than it is not a political party, it is
merely a conspiracy to seize power.
Dwight D Eisenhower , Speech March 6 1956 (via philosophicalconservatism)
By believing
passionately in something that still does not exist, we create it. The
nonexistent is whatever we have not sufficiently desired.
Silence is not the absence of something but the presence of everything.

There is no need to go
to India or anywhere else to find peace. You will find that deep place
of silence right in your room, your garden or even your bathtub.
Nothing has happened in
the past; it happened in the Now. Nothing will ever happen in the
future; it will happen in the Now.
