“Do things with your whole heart, with as much intensity as you are capable of. Anything done halfheartedly never brings joy to life. It only brings misery, anxiety, torture, and tension, because whenever you do anything halfheartedly you are dividing yourself into two parts, and that is one of the greatest calamities that has happened to human beings - they are all split.” HumansHeartTwoDoneWholeMotivationalJoyHuman BeingsHappenedAnxietyCapableMiseryTortureTensionIntensitySplitsCalamityDividing Author:Rajneesh

“All solitary enjoyments, quickly fall, or become painful, so that, perhaps, no more insufferable misery can be conceived than that which must follow incommunicable privileges. Only imagine a human being condemned to perpetual youth while all around him decay and die.

“So long as millions of human beings in every country has to sell their labour-power to a small minority of owners, and to sink into the most wretched misery if they could find no buyers, the so called “equality before the law” remains a pious fraud, since the laws are made by those who find themselves in possession of the social wealth. But in the same way there can also be no talk of a “right over one's own person,” for that right ends when one is compelled to submit to the economic dictation of another if he does not want to starve.” IfsWayWantHumansPersonsLongDoeMadeEndsCountryLawSocialWealthHuman BeingsMillionsEconomicRemainsSellsMiseryPossessionMinoritiesLabourOwnersFraudSubmitCompelledWretchedPiousBuyersDictation Author:Rudolf Rocker
“Human beings have a drive for security and safety, which is often what fuels the spiritual search. This very drive for security and safety is what causes so much misery and confusion. Freedom is a state of complete and absolute insecurity and not knowing. So, in seeking security and safety, you actually distance yourself from the freedom you want. There is no security in freedom, at least not in the sense that we normally think of security. This is, of course, why it is so free: there's nothing there to grab hold of.” ThinkingWantHumansStatesSpiritualCoursesCausesHuman BeingsKnowingSecurityAbsolutesSafetyDistanceMiserySeekingConfusionFuelInsecurityNot Knowing Author:Adyashanti
“For Jesus, it is clear, poverty is not the problem; it is the solution. Until human beings learn to live in naked contact and direct simplicity and equality with each other, sharing all resources, there can be no solution to the misery of the human condition and no establishment of God's kingdom. Jesus' radical and paradoxical sense of who could and who could not enter the Kingdom is even more clearly illustrated by his famous praise of children.” HumansChildrenProblemJesusHuman BeingsPovertyClearConditionsSolutionsResourcesDirectPraiseMiserySimplicityKingdomsNakedContactRadicalEstablishmentHuman ConditionParadoxical Author:Andrew Harvey
