I don't believe the inner work ever really ends, and sometimes I'd like to take a vacation. ↗

The soul-Self doesn't follow the crowd. It encourages you to speak up when you need to and live by your truth. ↗

عندما تتأمل الوجود من حولك، انظر إليه كأنك تراه لأول مرة. إن الاعتياد على الأشياء التي حولنا يمثل حجابا بيننا وبين حقيقتها، يسمونه «حجاب الاعتياد». ↗

Perhaps if we could popularise through the techniques of branding and consumerism, a different idea, a different narrative, perhaps the world can change. After all it changes constantly and incessantly, it's just the perceptions that we have are governed by people with self-interest and are not inalignment with the health and safety of us as individuals or as a planet. ↗

Life will always be sorrowful. We can't change it, but we can change our attitude toward it. ↗

Without love even the most radical devotion to God is of no value to Him. Let me make sure that sinks in… You can gain all the spiritual gifts in the world. You can take the most radical steps of obedience. You can share every meal with the homeless in your city. You can memorize the book of Leviticus. You can pray each morning for four hours like Martin Luther. But if what you do does not flow out of a heart of love - a heart that does those things because it genuinely desires to do them - it is ultimately worthless to God. ↗

And your own heart generates enough pressure as it pumps blood throughout your body that it could squirt blood up to 30 feet. (I’ve never tried this, and I don’t recommend it.) ↗

Strive to engage in activities that require constant self-development. Nurture and develop the physical body, but also our spiritual nature. We exist for a purpose: to honor our spirituality. When we do, we cannot help but love others. Hurting others is easily recognized as a crime against ourselves. It’s no coincidence that all religions teach this at their core. ↗
