What I am is what I want to be. I am already perfect.
If I crave to be somewhere or someone else, then I do not appriciate my self or this place.
Make peace with the condition or place or mood.
Don’t strive or crave. Be.
Feeling of loss
The feeling of clinging or loss is everywhere.
When you say goodbye to friends, when you wake up in the morning, when switching channels on the TV.
There is freedom in practicing to letting go.
Say “I let go without the feeling of loss. I embrace the new moment.”
Whenever I light an incense stick i say; “I make this offering without the feeling of loss”. It reminds me always to let go of the passing moment, to embrace the next moment.

Be good to yourself
Be kind to yourself.
Love yourself.
If you are hurting or sad or lonely, honor that.
Make time for yourself.
Let yourself heal.
Don’t expect so much of yourself.
Life can be downright brutal.
Let the love within you and others carry you through.
In time, you will see how much you have learned.
It is worth the journey.
Just ask people who almost lost their lives and
they will tell you that most of the stuff we fret
over isn’t that important.
Being alive is a great gift.
Don’t define yourself in such narrow terms as your work,
your body, your house, your kids, or your relationships.
Learn to see what is precious around you each day.
Do not take your good fortune for granted.
Be thankful and humble.
You do not have to justify your life with a big list of accomplishments.
Try to experience just being alive.
Try to belive in yourself, don’t look at this world.
Find your path and don’t give up .
Try deep meditation and spiritual evolution.

Is that the answer?
Every answer you get that has a voice is an ego-answer. There must be absolutely quite in your head if you want to hear your inner “voice”, your being.
Every break through I have ever made came to me without a voice. I could see the answer. The words came later.

Mechanism to create unhappiness
Mind will never allow you to be happy. Whatsoever the condition, the mind will always find something to be unhappy about. Let me say it in this way: mind is a mechanism to create unhappiness. Its whole function is to create unhappiness.
If you drop the mind, suddenly you become happy…for no reason at all. Then happiness is just natural, as you breathe. For breathing, you need not be even aware. You simply go on breathing. Conscious, unconscious, awake, asleep, you go on breathing. Happiness is exactly like that.
That’s why in the East we say that happiness is your innermost nature. It needs no outside condition; it is simply there, it is you. Bliss is your natural state; it is not an achievement. If you simply get out of the mechanism of the mind, you start feeling blissful.

Be nude
Once in a while, whenever the opportunity is possible and nobody is disturbed by your being nude, be nude. I am not telling you to go nude in the marketplace, but whenever the opportunity arrives and whenever you can be nude in the sun and in the wind and in the rain, be. Just by dropping the clothes you will feel a tremendous liberation — because your clothes are representative of your civilization, of your conditioning.

The ego is hidden from us
Ego-life is hidden from our awareness, because the untrained can only be self conscious for shorter periods of time. It is very trying for most people.
This is so because the ego believes that if your “being” was to take control of your life, your existence would be threatened. And on some level this may be correct. It would change you. And maybe you would not be able to command the necessary level of cynicism required to negotiate the contracts you normally do. You might get fired or your commission might go down.
But the fact is you would survive, you would probably just negotiate in a totally different manner. And maybe you would not be able to get the same contracts, but then you would probably be remembered for being such a loving person, and you might get some totally other contracts you just couldn’t get before, because you were such an idiot in the eyes of your peers. And your family might love you in a totally different way.

Panic Attacks
Panic arise when you are afraid of being anxious. It is a race-condition.
The biggest weakness of all is the fear of appearing weak.

No-mind epiphanies
Every breakthrough of any significance I have made came to me in a flash. There was no logical trail of thought. No words in my head. Mostly I was just starring into the void absent minded. I think I was letting go of my ego so my being could just take over my body. And then I could see it clear. Suddenly. See it. Not hear it or think it. See it.
Words only came later when i was trying to see how to remember that, or convey it to others.
Osho explains it like this.
And then the explosion. In a moment, everything was transformed. The question had dropped.
The answer had come from some unknown dimension. Truth is attained through a sudden explosion, not gradually.
It cannot be compelled to appear. It comes.

Disarmament
If we are to evolve as humans we must dismantle our nuclear weapons systems. But these nuclear weapons was invented to reduce or remove our fear. So evolving as humans MUST be followed by much fear.
The same goes for people.
