“He cleared his throat. "Can I ask you, what does a woman mean when she says she needs space?" He put his hand to his chest. "I have lost my wife, she has left, and it hurts so deeply." I stifled a laugh, not because I thought he pain (or inebriation, if that's what it was) was funny, but because it was too ridiculous.

“Someday, you will leave this town and venture into unfamiliar territories. If your heart yearns for exploration, your soul carries a message for you. Perhaps there’s something awaiting you in the place you desire to go, even if you’re uncertain of its exact location at present. The crucial thing is to trust your heart’s calling and embark on the journey when it signals that the time is right. Embrace the undeniable power of destiny without hesitation.”

“Tapascharya, spiritual practice means: accepting the truth that you are alone; that there is no way one can have a friend, a companion. No matter how much you long for it, regardless of how much you close your eyes and dream of them – you will still remain alone. For lives you built a home, you built a family, and then you lost it – and all through that you have always remained alone. Not even slightly has your aloneness been ever affected. So one who has known, one who has accepted that he is alone, for him there is an indication in this sutra: CONSCIOUSNESS IS THE BEING. Only being is yours, nothing else.”
