- Never be ashamed, he said. Accept what life offers you and try to drink from every cup. All wines should be tasted; some should only be sipped, but with others, drink the whole bottle.
- How will I know which is which?
- By the taste. You can only know a good wine if you have first tasted a bad one.

Be brave. Take risks. Nothing can substitute experience.

When someone says, "You’ve changed," it’s not always a bad thing. Sometimes it just means you stopped living your life their way or the way they expected you to. And that’s okay. No need to apologize for it. Instead, be open and sincere, explain how you feel, and keep doing what you know in your heart feels right

#463

Nothing other people do is because of you. It is because of themselves. All people live in their own dream, in their own mind; they are in a completely different world from the one we live in. When we take something personally, we make the assumption that they know what is in our world, and we try to impose our world on their world.

Learning something isn’t the same as living the truth

#450

We are living in a conditioning environment, even if there is an illusion of separateness, we are not separated. We are deeply connected to each other

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover

#295

See if you can catch yourself complaining in either speech or thought, about a situation you find yourself in, what other people do or say, your surroundings, your life situation, even the weather. To complain is always nonacceptance of what is. It invariably carries an unconscious negative charge. When you complain, you make yourself a victim. Leave the situation or accept it. All else is madness.

Если случаются ошибки — это нормально. Если вещи немного вышли из-под контроля, то это, возможно, именно то, что вам нужно. Когда это происходит, вы становитесь намного ближе к жизни, чем когда пытаетесь всем управлять.

You can't start the next chapter of your life if you keep re-reading the last one

If you think adventure is dangerous, try routine. It's lethal.

Основным грехом, из-за которого у людей возникает множество проблем, явлется недовольство жизнью, проявленное в форме длительных негативных переживаний

Time is like a river. You can't touch the same water twice

Вам нет нужды быть христианином, индуистом или буддистом, вам нужно только одно - быть естественным, как ваше дыхание. Любите свою жизнь. Не живите согласно каким-то заповедям. Не живите согласно чужим идеям. Не живите так, как от вас требуют люди. Прислушайтесь к своему собственному сердцу. Станьте безмолвны, прислушайтесь к тихому, слабому голосу внутри вас и следуйте ему

Рассвет приходит к тем, кто видел тьму
Во всём её убийственном величии...
Кто плакал от людского безразличия,
Но безразличным не был ни к кому!

Рассвет приходит к тем, кто был в пути,
Не зная ни усталости, ни лени.
Кто, обессилев, падал на колени,
Но поднимался. Продолжал идти!

И, зажимая волю в кулаки,
Вдруг находил ромашковое поле,
И, задыхаясь от щемящей боли,
Свои ладони прятал в лепестки!

К тем, кто, похоронив свои мечты,
И, помянув их, устремлялся дальше.
Кто смог среди предательства и фальши,
Не растерять душевной чистоты!

Нечаянно в небесной синеве,
Вдруг распахнутся солнечные двери.
Рассвет приходит к тем, кто верил в свет.
Абсурдно, до последнего. Но — верил!

Take life joyfully, take life easily, take life relaxedly, don't create unnecessary problems. Ninety-nine percent of your problems are created by you because you take life seriously. Seriousness is the root cause of problems. Be playful, and you will not miss anything — because life is God. Forget about God; just be alive, be abundantly alive. One moment of intense totality is enough to give you the taste of God.

#235

Religion is living. Living totally, living intensely, without any purpose because purpose is always in the future and living is always in the present. If you have a purpose to live your life is divided between present and future — you cannot be total. And without being total you cannot experience what life is. The only way to be total is to forget all about purpose

#234

Life has no goal because life is its own goal

#233

You are nothing but your past. What are you? Just a collection of the past. Drop your past, and you are not. The ego is nothing but a collective name for your whole past; and when you don't live in the past, you start living egolessly. Then moment to moment you go on dying to the past, you go on renouncing the past, and each moment you are fresh, young, virgin. And in that virginity is God.
