“More and more it seems to me that the philosopher, being of necessity a man of tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, has always found himself, and had to find himself, in contradiction to his today: his enemy was ever the ideal of today. So far all these extraordinary furtherers of men whom one calls philosophers, though they themselves have rarely felt like friends of wisdom but rather like disagreeable fools and dangerous question marks, have found their task, their hard, unwanted, inescapable task, but eventually also the greatness of their task, in being the bad conscience of their time.” MenHardPhilosophySeemsTodayFoundFeltEnemyDangerousGreatnessFoolTomorrowConscienceIdealsTasksMarkExtraordinaryPhilosopherContradictionDisagreeableUnwantedQuestion Mark Author:Friedrich Nietzsche
“It should be for satsang that we go to spiritual centers. By going there, people who are involved in the world can attain peace and concentration. The concentration gained when one goes there cannot be achieved if one sits at home. Even though the breeze blows everywhere, coolness will be felt more if we sit in the shade of a tree. In the same way, although God is all-pervading, this presence will clearly shine in certain places more than others. That is the greatness of satsang. Satsang is the best thing for spiritual advancement.” PeopleIfsWorldWayShouldHomeSpiritualCertainFeltTreeGreatnessInvolvedShiningBlowDevotionBest ThingsConcentrationShadeBreezeAdvancementCoolnessSatsang Author:Mata Amritanandamayi

“I was lucky enough to see with my own eyes the recent stock-market crash, where they lost several million dollars, a rabble of dead money that went sliding off into the sea. Never as then, amid suicides, hysteria, and groups of fainting people, have I felt the sensation of real death, death without hope, death that is nothing but rottenness, for the spectacle was terrifying but devoid of greatness... I felt something like a divine urge to bombard that whole canyon of shadow, where ambulances collected suicides whose hands were full of rings.” PeopleRealEnoughWholeHandsEyeLostFeltMy OwnBusinessMillionsGroupsSeaGreatnessDivineLuckyShadowSuicideDollarsRingsFinanceUrgesSensationsCrashMillion DollarsHysteriaWithout HopeCanyonsAmbulanceFaintingMarket CrashHope DeathStock Market Crash Author:Federico Garcia Lorca
