Quote by Brittany Burgunder

“Don't let fear interfere. It's how you use your fear that counts. Don't let it exhaust you -let it excite you. Change the narrative. You only get one life.”

“What we consistently manifest outside of ourselves is simply a projection of what’s inside. All that we’ve been, all that we are and all that we will be is a result of the law of our being. Our being, not luck nor chance, is what creates everything. If we want to change the outside, we must first change the inside...individually and or collectively. Our being springs forth from the fount of our thoughts. Adjust our thinking and we will shape our being as well as the world around us.”

“As we become adept in communication, we forget that the concepts and words that we use in language are abstractions. In other words, we fall asleep to what is real--actual experience-- and take concepts to be real. As with language, so with every other aspect of experience. We forget that thoughts are thoughts, feelings are feelings, and sensations are sensations. We instead take the contents of thoughts to be real entities, feelings to be what we are, and sensations to be external objects. Think of an elephant, for instance. If you forget that you are thinking about an elephant, then you take the elephant you are thinking about to be an actual elephant. 'Absurd!' you say, but isn't that exactly what happens when you are distracted in meditation? A thought of a dispute with a friend arises. You don't recognize it as a thought. In the next moment, you are engrossed in an argument with your friend. You forget not only your meditation practice but also where you are. Your world of experience has collapsed down to the dispute with your friend. You are completely obsessed with it. The only argument that is taking place, however, is the one in your mind.”
