Life Lessons Quotes

“Let your life reflect the faith you have in God. Fear nothing and pray about everything. Be strong, trust God's word, and trust the process.”

“I love to walk. Walking is a spiritual journey and a reflection of living. Each of us must determine which path to take and how far to walk; we must find our own way, what is right for one may not be for another. There is no single right way to deal with late stage cancer, to live life or approach death, or to walk an old mission trail.”

“تیرانا،تیرانا!خاموشی،چیزی بجز همین اصوات و نواها نیست که از جنبش در ایستاده اند.زبان خاموشی گویاترین زبانهاست.خاموشی زبان خاصه طبیعت است؛زبان کوهساران،دشتها و زبان ستارگان است، زبان درختان،گلها و گیاهان است،زبان آفرینش و زبان همه کائنات است. آیا تو هیچ با طبیعت سخن گفته ای؟ #تیرانا”

“Tirana, Tirana! Silence, there is nothing but these sounds and noises that stand out from the movement. This Language is the most expressive language. Silence is the special language of nature; it is the language of mountains, plains and stars, it is the language of trees, flowers and plants, the language of creation. And it is the language of the whole universe. Have you ever talked to nature? #Tirana”

“Observing daily silence periods requires the diligent following of a process. It is not about attaining a state of thoughtlessness. That’s not possible. And that’s not required either. What is possible, and important, is that you can still the mind and train it to attend only to the present. And like with everything else in Life, mastering this process requires disciplined application and rigorous practice. It is only through stilling the mind, through being in the now, that you learn the art of being happy despite the circumstances.”

“Practicing silence periods daily works for your mind in the same way that anti-virus software and firewalling protect your computer against virus attacks. Silence or mouna, practiced daily, helps prevent wasteful, debilitating, thoughts and emotions like anger, greed, jealousy, hatred, self-pity, self-doubt, guilt, fear, worry and such from invading your mind. mouna firewalls your thinking and helps you stay anchored – happily, peacefully, in the now.”

“Still the mind by practising daily silence periods. The mind has to stop its constant chattering. And must fall silent. This does not mean you will not have thoughts arising in your mind. This means you must learn not to pick up worrisome, fearful, angry, anxious thoughts. And instead train your mind to think abundant, thankful, thoughts celebrating the now. When you are in the present moment, the mind is powerless. The mind, interestingly, can control you only when it is trapped in memories (often of pain, grief, guilt, anger) of the dead past or has raced into the unborn future (and is worrying and anxious). The mind really thrives only in the past or in the future. In the present, it holds no power. The secret to Happiness lies in training the mind to constantly be in the present moment.”

“Enlightenment is not about attaining an ultimate level of intelligence or intellect. It is regained by shedding all the ideas, illusion and binds thrust on you and that you then so readily accrue.”

“The only way you're going to reach places you've never gone is if you trust God's direction to do things you've never done.”
