At Any Moment You Can Either Choose Love or Fear

 An any moment you can choose love, or you can choose fear. You cannot choose both simultaneously. One is about survival. The other, service. You can't be in both modes.

Most suffering arises from a mental concept of something or someone and your attachment and repulsion towards that mental concept.

When We Reduce Others

We often reduce human being to their opinions, beliefs, mistakes and shortcomings. We forget their humanity and their hurts. We blame, shame and criticise them, make them small, insignificant, and sometimes even make them the villain, the enemy. How have our thoughts and beliefs taken over our hearts and so create misery for ourselves and our world.

When We Believe We Are Better...

Whenever we believe we are better than others, we will never be able to accept or make peace with them. We will never have true relationships. Only transactional ones.

Patience with Impatience

 Learn to become patient with your own impatience. Instead of trying to be patient, simply create space with your own impatience. Be compassionate to impatience. Be kind. Then you soon realise that impatience fades away in it's own time, in it's own way - without any force or effort. All it requires is your kind attention and space for it to be, as it is.

Everything is Beautiful

Everything is beautiful not because it meets your ego’s expectations. But because it is God’s Will. 
Only when you surrender to that reality - is when you see the beauty and enter gratitude.

The Highest Form of Existence

 Is when you can love even those who put a blade through you

Here your love is unconditional, pervasive and expansive

You are fully connected to Source. You are consumed in God.

The freedom, the peace, the joy, the love comes form the Infinite.

You have fully risen above the game of survival.

This is the highest form of existence. 

You have become nothing.

And hence, everything.

This is the joy

Why Resist What Is?

Why resist what is, when what is, is exactly God's Will.

Why resist God's Will, when God's Will is exactly, what is.

Surrendering to "what is" (God's Will), returns you to your natural state - inner peace - which is in fact the natural state of the universe. 

In contrast, resistance places you in the state of suffering. The state of mis-alignment with God's Will. 

Aligning one's own will to that of the Divine, returns you to peace. 

From this state, the quality of your being, your presence, begins to transform your life, your relationships, and the world.

Two Wantings Causing Suffering and the Remedy

There are two types of wantings that cause personal suffering: wanting something you don’t have and wanting to retain what you already have. Observe both wantings with compassion instead of trying to squash them. Your presence is all that is required to return to Self - to peace.

Whenever You Feel Hurt By Another

 Whenever you feel hurt by another, the first thing to do is to bring compassion, kindness towards yourself and your hurt. Know that the hurt is normal, natural and real. It requires your own deep care and compassion. Once you do that, and only then, if you wish, you can extend that compassion to the other person. If you do not wish, continue to bring loving kindness to yourself. You will know when you are ready to extend this. The extension will be natural and organic - never forced.

We all Carry Filth No Matter Who We Are

No matter how holy someone is, in form, we all carry filth with us and each and every one of us are polluting the environment through our mere consumption and our excrement. We are all imperfect in form. This we have in common. What we also have in common is out completeness in Divine Presence. In fact we carry this commonality with all creation. We are inherently both insignificant in this vast universe while also being infinitely significant when we discover the Divine within us - as well as in all of life, all creation. Rest in this beauty that lies deep within.

When The Whole is Not Seen

When the Whole is not seen and appreciated for what it is, diverse, vast, different, opposing, then enemies are created out of this perceived difference in form. The outsiders. The others. The enemy. The insiders feel warm and fuzzy because they feel united, they feel one against the enemy or the outsiders. There is a cost to this. Human unconsciousness, and deviation from the Divine. The Divine that permeates all things, not one group but all groups, not one nation, but all nations. Not one religion but all religions.

The True Purpose

The true purpose of life is not about always gaining, but how you respond to loss of what you have or not been given an opportunity to get something you almost had or a lost opportunity. Remaining in stillness, unperturbed in such circumstances determines your true quality of mind, and hence your life. Any turmoil means you are at the mercy of the external world for your happiness, forgotten the deep peace within - masked by the ego. Return to Self. Be still. Even when you hold turmoil in your stillness, you transmute turmoil into peace. You become spacious. Vast.

Who Am I?

 I am the oneness that I was.

Billions of years ago, I split myself into many. I created "you" and "me." I entered into delusion.

Then I began to compete with myself.

I gathered myself into tribes and communities.

Yet I still kept parts of myself away and separate: the "others." I divided myself into more and more labels - even based on the variation of my skin color. I separated, fought, and competed with those parts of myself that I saw as separate.


Now, I am rediscovering who I was,

The oneness that I was,

The oneness that I am.

Through separation, I have rediscovered my oneness with all of life.

That knowledge could not have been known without the first separation.

My delusion is finally coming to an end.

With gratitude, I am returning home.


I am EVERYTHING that you see.


I am the cause of all the world's problems.

I am also the healer of all wounds.

I am the wrath of the world.

I am also the joy.

I am the agony.

I am also the peace.

I am the darkness.

I am also the light.

I am the nothingness.

I am also everything.


When we embrace all of who we are, we will find peace within and compassion and gratitude towards others. We gain access to forgiveness of ourselves, others, and the world. We gain access to Agape - universal love. We enter heaven on earth - finally. Our final destination. We return home.

What does Anxiety Mean?

When you are in uncertainty and anxiously waiting for something. Be it a response from a boss regarding a job application, a message from a partner, the result about your health check for an illness, all is that you have lost presence in God, and in Life. You are not in surrender and thus there is suffering. How easy it is to remember and return to God, return to trust in Life and surrender, to return to peace. Anxiety is a sign of forgetfulness to trust in God's Will.

Form Seeking Completeness

 At the beginning of Existence, completeness in Essence (Wholeness), became incompleteness in form and completeness in essence. The form then attempted to return itself to completeness. In form one will always be incomplete, imperfect, in essence - one will always be complete and perfect. We have focused too much on our incompleteness and the incompleteness’ attempt to return to Wholeness. This is the natural drive of the incompleteness. A part of the incompleteness is able to recognise the completeness within itself - the hidden treasure within. This is the stillness presence, or becoming present to stillness, the gateway into the Infinite, the Source of all of life.

The Universe and Time

The universe has all the time in the world and will arise and pass you away (or arise and pass away) until you get enlightened.

We Are Tools for Enlightenment

Each of us are tools of the Divine allowing for awareness and enlightenment . Even our unconsciousness is utilised for this purpose. As we notice the suffering caused by unconsciousness, and the subsequent pathway towards Enlightenment.

The Great Holds Space

The Great holds space for what arises and passes to arise and pass. From joy, to shame and anger. Whether in self or others, the Great holds space in stillness. There is no judgement and if there is, the judgement itself is given space to arise and pass away, just as the Universe allows all forms to arise and pass, so does the Great One.

Anything that can be thought

Anything that can be thought is transient, and transient things are small in the grand scheme of things. Anything that can be thought is in the causal real that is constantly changing, transient, and impermanent. you can choose to not take your thoughts and opinions  so seriously. You can choose to rise above the content of your life circumstance which are impermanence and transient by recognizing and decelerating ultimate truths to give you perspective and using mindfulness to rise above thought .

Holding Compassionate Space

To hold compassionate space for others' anger, bitterness, negativity without reacting to it, allows one to cultivate inner peace within, while allowing others who are in that state of negativity to also transcend their state to rise above and go beyond it. This is the essence of true transformation, from self to others, and the world. to break cycles of reaction towards sustained inner and outer peace.

Ego Entanglement

Ego entanglement is when your own ego gets entangled with the ego of others. It is the ego's position that conflicts with the ego position of others and the ego is interested in proving its own perspective as true. How do we spot the ego? By looking at the voice in your head, telling others how things should be, how they should be, and what is right and what is wrong. That is the voice of the ego. Observe it so that you first entangle yourself from it and thus entangle the ego from the ego of others.

Selfless Service

Selfless service emanates from serving and expecting nothing in return as the service itself is sacred and satisfying in itself. To give and express delight in the opportunity of giving is to allow the spirit rise above the ego.  It is to recognise all giving and service comes from Beyond - from the Infinite and each and every one of us can act as a vessel for that service to be expressed in this world. There is a humility and delight in being the servant of the Infinite.

How We Try to Replace Infinite Love with Finite Love

 When we try to replace Infinite Love of Divine Presence with finite love of people presence we then become needy of attention and love from others. We forget the infinite love that permeates everything that there is. When we remember and step into Infinite Love that is when we can truly give love to others without need for the finite love we may receive.

Instead I want to be right”. Then face the consequences of suffering.  Know that you have chosen to be righteous, to be right over the experience of surrender, of letting go, that leads to inner peace, love, joy, freedom. They give you access to the unlimited infinite presence that's within you and all of creation. If you do not wish to have access to that and you want to be right instead, then choose it. But know that you can also choose otherwise. You can choose to let go of your opinions, your perspectives, your logical arguments. You can let go of all that and embrace the infinite presence of love, freedom, peace, joy that gives rise to another state of being and other qualities of behavior and functioning that emanate from a state of bliss. well being, happiness, peace, joy, love, freedom. You can't have both. You can't be right and have access to that. It just doesn't work that way. So know the difference and choose powerfully which way you want to go and know that you can choose either at any moment in time. You will not be stuck with either of these choices for the rest of your life, it takes this very moment to choose one over the other . It happens now

The Voice of Judgement vs the Voice of Judgement

The difference between the voice of judgement and voice of discernment is that the voice of judgement is far louder than the voice of discernment. The voice of discernment is faint but wise, subtle but important. The voice of judgment is loud and rowdy, full of ego and resentment. The is how you can tell the difference between the voice of judgement and the voice of discernment.

How Presence is Lost

 Even a mild thought can deprive one of presence, leading to unconscious behaviours. Total alertness is required at all times specially in situations when some form of clinging or aversion may arise (seeking or escaping). Both forms create mild instability leading to unconscious behaviours that lead to ineffective outcomes. The only remedy is constant vigilant awareness to the breath and body. This could be when one is by onself or when with others, high presence is required in higher stake situations.

Judgement vs Discernment

Judgement is not intentional. It’s often a reaction. The intentional awareness and observation of this reaction (judgement) is intentional and of higher order. Discernment is intentional and requires the observation and awareness of judgement itself. Discernment has a metacognitive quality and requires higher order cognition. Judgement is lower order cognitive process based on past experiences.

When you are still, and there is no mind.

Trust in What Unfolds

There may be times that you can rightfully blame and complain about situations and others. But what is the impact of this on you and what you want to achieve? You can still use that energy and time to work towards your goals. Think more clearly about what you want to achieve and what it takes to get there, even at the face of opposition, resistance and lack of support. Keep moving and have trust in yourself and what unfolds.

Falling Victim to Fear

We all become victims of fear and complacency. We deprive ourselves and others of love as we continue to be driven by fear. This fear of pain and complacency is so great that we continue to escape and resort to "but everyone is doing it, so it must be ok" mentality.
But this doesn't have to be the norm - we can return to love and even when it means there will be pain, at least we experience life as it truly is. Falling victim to fear is in fact a choice, just as returning to love is, too.

Tis Not About

Tis not about winning or losing, gain or loss, tis about operating from love, tis about the process of service that matters, the result can be used to enhance the process but not the determinant of the state.

Intentions vs Expectations

Intentions and behaviours arising from values and personal ethics are inherently more satisfying than intentions and behaviours arising from expectations of certain outcomes.

"If I do this, I should get this" - outcome oriented behaviour
"I do this because this is important to me, I value this activity" value-driven activity.

Never has glorification and vilification ended in a positive outcome. Yet we have over the ages persisted to continue to vilify and glorify individuals and groups, whether it be culturally and habitually, the outcome of either ends in negative short term and long term consequences.

Demanding vs Doing

Demanding is not doing, many demand of others, yet do very little themselves. Effective leaders are on the ground helping their followers, they act and inspire action. They earn respect not through coercion but through inspiration. They instil commitment, not compliance.

The Problem with the World

The problem with the world is not that people have (unresolved) issues, it is that because they don't acknowledge that they have unresolved issues, and so either they think they are fine and other's are not, OR the opposite, they are not fine and everyone else is. These two extremes creates much of the problems in the world.

To Understand

To understand others, one must put to one side one’s own beliefs and values and delve into the values and beliefs of the other, with curiosity and without judgement.

Motivating Through Positive Emotions

You can always get people to do something by creating guilt, fear, shame or whatever negative emotion that people want to escape and so yield. But can you create a deep seeded desire for people to do something, not out of fear, guilt or shame but out of positive emotions of purpose, passion and the desire to do good?

Biased Opinions

You will continue to always have your own biased, limited perspective or idealised opinions. There is nothing fundamentally wrong with these so long as you don't see your opinions as absolute truths and not impose them on others. There is also no need to fight off your biased perspectives, but to notice them and with curiosity understand them. They will eventually develop and evolve to something more effective and although absolute truth will never be reached, one can approach a more harmonised holistic perspective on life.

Self Suppressed or Self Expressed

You are generally either self-suppressed or self-expressed. What is important is the cultivation of values and attitudes that allow the self-expression to be positive for the self and others and also have the courage and openness to accept the self-expression of others as valid and authentic to them even when you do not agree with their views, you will be able to accept their point of view.
