Famous Sarah Dakhili Quotes

“That’s the thing with humans. We don’t change unless we are taken to the edge. Unless we are shaken at our core, we don’t stop to listen and honour the messages that life is communicating to us and yet “all roads lead to Rome”. No matter what path we end up choosing, we are always being guided back “home”, where our truth and essence lies. No path is free from pain. Pain is what makes us stronger. From the moment we are born into this world, we are born into immense pain. We feel pain when we grow our first teeth. We experience pain when we first learn to take our first steps. We feel it when our bones grow bigger and stronger into adolescence. Pain is inevitable. Suffering, however, is optional. Depending on how and when you choose to grow in consciousness, you can lead a life that is free from suffering. You will not be free from discomfort and challenges, but you will be liberated from suffering.”

“When we live in a state of dis-ease, we eventually end up creating disease. The genetically weaker parts of our body become more susceptible to ailment. Although the experience of falling ill has been challenging and difficult, it has nevertheless brought me an immense opportunity to dig deeper and connect with the wisdom within me. This is why I am a big believer of the concept of our unlimited nature. There is so much we are yet to discover about our true nature; the nature of being a soul and an empowered being, a conscious creator and connecting to the endless loving stream of the Universe.”

“Whenever we are at the lowest possible point of our life, we get faced with a time of humility. This time of humility is a precious time. It is the time of opportunity and choice. It is when you are given a chance to view life as something other than black and white, a time where you cannot help but to see colour all around you and realise that there is much life and wisdom yet for you to tap into. Somehow, from within, this humility opens you up for a deeper knowing beyond what you have allowed yourself to utilise so far. It is a time when you subconsciously or consciously choose to become a student of life rather than a victim of life.”

“The challenge with hidden racism in the shape of discrimination is that although it exists in most countries and within humanity at large, it is not a normal state of being. Do you ever see young children and babies of various skin colours and cultures rejecting each other on the playground? If anything, they tend to get curious and come close to discover their differences, or they simply don’t notice any. If a child ever does discriminate or reject another child because of her or his colour or cultural origin, it is always due to a learned behaviour. Racism is an insidious cultural disease. We take it in, like air based on our environment. All types of racism are taught. None of us are born judging each other. Judgement is a taught behaviour.”

“I believe that there is a story within us all, and that this story must be told as it may bring much wisdom, inspiration, healing and insight to the world around us, including to ourselves. You are not your story, and yet your story is a symbol of your strength. It doesn’t matter whether it is a story about success or failure. Every story provides us with an opportunity for growth and learning.”
