Living The Ankh

“To breathe in consciously is to know that the air is entering your body, and to breathe out consciously is to know that your body is exchanging air. Thus, you are in contact with the air and with your body, and because your mind is being attentive to all this, you are in contact with your mind, too; just as it is. It needs only one conscious breath to be back in contact with yourself and everything around you”
— Thich Nhat Hanh (via eternalconsciousness)

“In the midst of pain and sadness, find love for those who suffer, the heart to let go of the pain, the will to seek the truth, the strength to find the way out.”
— Buddha (via aseaofculture)

If I have a daughter

If I have a daughter, I hope she’s free. I wish her spirit the ability to soar wherever she wanted. I dont want her mind to be her prison. I don’t want her to live in the sadness of life… I want her to live purely in the moment. I want her to be free.

“‘Positive imagery! You’ve got to visualize the things you want to have happen in your life.’ That’s the secret of life to you? Then kill yourself. It’s got to mean more than that! ‘Positive imagery.’ Fly to Africa and tell one of them starving children that shit. ‘What’s wrong with you?’ ‘I have not eaten in five days.’ ‘Well, what you need to do is visualize some roast beef and some mashed potatoes with gravy! The problem is you have a bad attitude about starving to death.’”

“When the elephant is young and relatively weak, it is tied to an immovable stick. So later, no matter how large and strong he becomes…he continues to believe that he cannot free himself.
Many intelligent people are like circus elephants. They never question their self-imposed limitations.”
