Do not believe a thing because you have read about it in a book. Do not believe a thing because another man has said it was true. Do not believe in words because they are hallowed by tradition. Find out the truth for yourself. Reason it out. That is realisation.“
Swami Vivekananda (via stardust-seedling)

No, I am not strong and I cannot write and I cannot do anything. And now, Milena, on top of this you are turning away from me, not for long, but remember a human can’t last for long without a heartbeat, and as long as you are turned away how can my heart go on beating?
Franz Kafka, Letters to Milena (via theglasschild)

Quote
Whatever has happened, Has happened for good. Whatever is happening, Is happening for good. Whatever will happen, Shall also happen for good. What have you lost, That you cry for? What did you bring, That you lost? What did you create, That was destroyed? You came empty handed, And will go empty handed. What is yours today, Was somebody else’s yesterday, And will be somebody else’s tomorrow.
Sri Krishna (via iamabuddha)
A reminder to anyone who needs it.

The Aghori have a profound connection with the dead. Death is not a fearsome concept, but a passing from the world of illusion.

A wandering sadhu, or holy man, is asked what his life work is? He replies: 
“I’m a farmer." 
Looking upon the puzzled face of the questioner, the holy man further explains:
"This body of mine is my field. I sow good thoughts and actions, and in my body I reap the results.”
Traditional Hindu Anecdote

“Drop the idea of becoming someone, because you are already a masterpiece. You cannot be improved. You have only to come to it, to know it, to realize it.”

We hiked for five hours in the middle of the night across the ruined Silk Road to watch the sunrise bathe Petra in hues of dusty pinks and pale oranges and dark plums. Nothing quite compares to that. It really truly is the Rose City. Petra, Jordan
