“Many people who are going through the early stages of the awakening process are no longer certain what their outer purpose is. What drives the world no longer drives them. Seeing the madness of our civilization so clearly, they feel somewhat alienated from the culture around them. Some feel that they inhabit a no-man's-land between two worlds. They are no longer run by the ego, yet the arising awareness has not yet become fully integrated into their lives. Inner and outer purpose have not merged.” PeopleMenWorldFeelsTwoRunningPurposeCertainCultureProcessSeeingLandStageAwarenessCivilizationEgoMadnessAwakeningIntegratedTwo Worlds Book:A New Earth (Oprah #61): Awakening to Your Life's Purpose Source: A New Earth (Oprah #61): Awakening to Your Life's Purpose

“If you choose to see everything as a miracle, then where you are right now is perfect. There is nowhere to run to; there is nothing else to do except be in this moment and allow what is to be. From that place of radical acceptance, major change can happen. The first step in any transformational experience is acceptance and surrender to the present moment, the way that it is. From that place we have the awareness, humility and power to change what is.” IfsWayFirstsMomentsHappensRunningPerfectInspiringStepsAwarenessAcceptanceHumilityRight NowMajorsYogaMiracleSurrenderRadicalWell BeingPresent MomentWhere You AreYou ChooseFirst StepsPower To ChangeMajor ChangeRadical Acceptance Author:Mastin Kipp
“He who stands aloof runs the risk of believing himself better than others and misusing his critique of society as an ideology for his private interest. While he gropingly forms his own life in the frail image of a true existence, he should never forget its frailty, nor how little the image is a substitute for true life. Against such awareness, however, pulls the momentum of the bourgeois within him.” ShouldBelieveLittlesRunningFormInterestForgetExistenceRiskAwarenessIdeologyNever ForgetSubstitutesMomentumCritiqueBourgeoisFrailFrailtyTrue LifeAloof Book:Essays on Music Source: Essays on Music

“Time seems to pass. The world happens, unrolling into moments, and you stop to glance at a spider pressed to its web. There is a quickness of light and a sense of things outlined precisely and streaks of running luster on the bay. You know more surely who you are on a strong bright day after a storm when the smallest falling leaf is stabbed with self-awareness. The wind makes a sound in the pines and the world comes into being, irreversibly, and the spider rides the wind-swayed web.” KnowsWorldSelfMomentsLightSeemsHappensRunningFallStrongSoundAwarenessWindSelf AwarenessWho You AreStormSmallestLeafsGlancesSpidersStreaksQuicknessLusterFalling LeavesBright Days Book:The Body Artist Source: The Body Artist
