Mindful Quotes

“Meanwhile, the must-haves we're encouraged to lust over bombard us from every direction. Jewellery. Clothes. Technology. Cars. In pursuit of them, the reasons for which we are enticed to buy slip from view. To make life happier, to have more downtime and fewer complications. Folk practising the coorie commandments are working to cast aside fast consumerism and usher in meaningful products. One school of thought argues that handing the population the information they need to make decisions on how to live a more mindful existence is half the battle won.”

“When a gardener plants seeds they wait for them to grow, in the knowledge that they will ripen in their own time; so with our practice, we take a relaxed step back and allow it to mature naturally, in its own time. Appreciating this helps us to have a relaxed approach to our training, and means we are making a significant investment in the mental health of our future self. We will come to experience all the beneficial effects of our practice.”

“When we are practising mindful meditation, we need to be aware of our mind when it gets overexcited due to distractions, and when it becomes dull and starts to fall asleep. Excitement and mental dullness take our attention away from the present moment and have a significant part to play in the stress and anxiety that arises in our life.”

“Birds never know (Sonnet) Birds never know if the sun will rise, yet they sing everyday right before dawn. And sure enough the night collapses, into the arms of the rising sun. Kiss the world like morning sun, Sing to the sky like waking birds. Fret not the fears of wild insecurity, You do your task with dutybound heart. Touch the soul like summer breeze, Hug the soil like monsoon rain. Life is calling, can't you hear! Universe awaits your humane reign.”

“Anatomy of Conspiracy (Sonnet 2094-2095) The biggest conspiracy in the world is to make people think that there is a conspiracy, because when people believe in conspiracy, they get paranoid, and a paranoid population is the ideal consumer for various soothsaying items, from guns, bombs and nuclear weapons, to crystals, chemtrails, chakras, magnets, gemstones, ouija, racial purity, and plots of land in the afterlife. Now, some of these items and ideas may be harmless, others downright villainous, but they are all part and parcel of an insecure primate's pursuit for control - delusional though such control may be. Conspiracy, superstition, conventional or newage, it's all about control, either self-inflicted or institutionalized - you are searching for order where there is none, so your brain cooks up one, just to keep you satisfied - and you start seeing faces in the clouds, or patterns in your star charts. Keep your mind open, just not so open that your brain starts leaking - an empty attic is a primate's olympus.”

“Put down your glass, it is time to dance. If you want to get drunk all you need is to drink love. Put down your pipe and do away with these childish toys. If you want to get high all you need is to breathe love. Now, can I have this dance?”
