Thought For Days

Friendship
Anyone with a heart full of friendship has a hard time finding enemies.

Making a Life
We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.

In Silence and Stillness
In the silence of my being, in the stillness of peace, I ponder the greatness of my existence, and the truly endless love and power I have within me.

Dance In Happiness
The easy way to remain happy is to remain constantly light. Pure thoughts are light and waste thoughts are heavy. Therefore, keep your intellect busy with pure thoughts and you will become light and continue to dance in happiness.

Contentment
Remain content by recognizing the benefit of every moment - and the beauty of every soul.

Imperishable Wealth
The wealth of a rich man can be stolen or burnt, but the happiness and wisdom of the wise remain.

Fragrant Heart
The heart is like a flower - unless it is open it cannot release its fragrance into the world.

Diamond Consciousness
When you look at the world through your physical eyes, you will see all the facets of our diversity: culture, race, personality, religion and so on. Seeing only through your physical eyes, it is easy to become stubborn and to try to prove yourself right. However where there is stubbornness there is no love. And trying to prove the self right is equally offensive. A diamond will sparkle even in the dust; you do not ever need to prove that you are right. In the face of the dangers that come from seeing only with the physical eyes, always think: now is the time to go beyond all divisions, beyond all that limits us and our sense of self. Whatever the race, the religion, the class - our consciousness now has to go beyond all of that.

Learn a Lesson
Instead of being afraid of situations, consider them to be your teacher and learn a lesson from them.
