I am a dreamer. I know so little of real life that I just can't help re-living such moments as these in my dreams, for such moments are something I have very rarely experienced. I am going to dream about you the whole night, the whole week, the whole year. I feel I know you so well that I couldn't have known you better if we'd been friends for twenty years. You won't fail me, will you? Only two minutes, and you've made me happy forever. Yes, happy. Who knows, perhaps you've reconciled me with myself, resolved all my doubts.

When I woke up it seemed to me that some snatch of a tune I had known for a long time, I had heard somewhere before but had forgotten, a melody of great sweetness, was coming back to me now.

Life's too gorgeous to be sad! Why settle for a frown when you can turn that upside down into a smiley emoji? Dive into the beauty around you, chase those rainbows, and sprinkle glitter on any gray clouds that dare to linger. Remember, happiness is your birthright, so grab it with both hands and twirl it around like a champ! It's your world, so make it sparkle and shine. Remember, happiness is a choice, and today, you choose joy!

The journey of ego-Self separation and reunion is not a strictly linear process with a clear beginning and end. Similar to the heroic journey, it is a spiralling path that we navigate throughout our lives. We separate and reunite multiple times, at different depths and levels of consciousness. With each revolution of the spiral, we reconnect with deeper and vaster expanses of our authentic Self, without negating the role of the ego or our humanity. This lifelong journey is a continual unfolding and balancing of the paradox of the human and divine within us.

Awaken To Love: Reclaiming Wholeness through Embodied Nonduality with Jungian Wisdom, Psychosynthesis & Internal Family Systems

Many individuals on spiritual paths either avoid intimate relationships altogether or continue to struggle relationally, despite good intentions, due to the influence of unconscious patterns rooted in our formative years. Psychological work to bring these patterns to conscious awareness is frequently necessary. As Swami Prajnanpad emphasized, the context of a committed relationship serves as a potent litmus test, exposing our vulnerabilities and potentially confounding superficial spiritual achievements. Rather than viewing relational difficulties as mere manifestations of the unpleasantness inherent in the cycle of existence (samsara), we could recognize relationships as a significant evolutionary challenge—the very curriculum for our awakening.

There are many paths to success. True success is happiness. It is lying on your deathbed, looking back at your life, and feeling a sense of satisfaction.

The nondual approach allows us to follow conventional therapeutic protocols while remaining mindful of the interconnectedness of all things. In the nondual state, we can attune not only to our personal unique Self but also to the transpersonal Self, recognizing its wave-like properties. The panoramic perspective of nonduality helps us gain a bigger picture outlook and address suffering while feeling connected to the unbroken whole of existence. From this nondual view, the diversity within is welcomed and held in love.

I often wonder what our responsibility is to other people, how much we owe them. Whose job is it to look out for our own happiness, Us, or the people who love us? It's both, of course. We owe ourselves and each other. But in what order?

Studies show definite negative health consequences to those who hold jobs that offer them low intellectual discretion (a measure of how repetitive a job is) and little freedom of schedule (such as the ability to take a break at one’s discretion). Those holding such jobs are at significantly higher risk for coronary heart disease. A more recent meta-analysis revealed that the risks go beyond coronary heart disease to include significantly higher rates of all-cause morality for workers with low job control. Lack of occupational freedom kills!

The more death, the more birth. People are entering, others are exiting. The cry of a baby, the mourning of others. When others cry, the other are laughing and making merry. The world is mingled with sadness, joy, happiness, anger, wealth, poverty, etc.
