We were born whole, We weren't meant to be torn apart, Being born into this world, that is what is being done to us, right from the start. Telling us who we are, telling us what we can do, They handed down to us what they knew, while inside of us grew the yearning for …
The Way
Cherishing uniqueness, sameness is realized. Knowing the game's rules, one yields towards the laws of nature. Letting go of the past, dying to the future, there is the present. Neither serious nor careless, attentive to the needs of the moment. Neither lost in the world nor disregarded, its beauty is appreciated. Relating to others as …
Who we are
We are born into the garment of a holy makeup, Born to be free, it's time to wake up. Our being as light as air,yet we suffocate, But mighty are we, so it's never too late. We are made of stars that once have been, Children of the cosmic riddle, The moment we open our …
The death of certainty
For the last year or so, I have been going through a very deep internal process which has gone unnoticed by most people as I carried on with my everyday existence of social interactions and meaningless robotic small talk at work. This process took me to the core of my deepest beliefs and questions that …
What does it mean, to be human?
I think, that this is a question we all asked ourselves. I mean here we are, humans, this species walking on two feet on a floating island called earth, what a mysterious and rather odd situation when we think about it - like holy shit, you are alive! Just take one little moment and acknowledge …
This fruitful darkness
I know that for many of us, for those that see what is going on in the world, that this is not an easy time. It is overwhelming and saddening to witness the state of affairs we have fallen into the last couple of years and there doesn't seem to be an end to it …
F.E.A.R – False evidence appearing real
I want to begin this writing with a quote that my father shared with me in a discussion I recently had with him that goes as follows: "The difference between medicine and poison is the dose." This quote is well known and yet it is one that fascinates me tremendously because of its simplicity and …
Sitting in the lap of creation
Without air, our lungs could never breathe. Without skin, the warmth of the sun goes unfelt. Without a tongue, the freshness of water will be unknown. Without ears, the song of the birds will go unheard. Without feat, no soil can be felt underneath you. We are the earth, the earth is us. What we …
Life – a beautiful organized chaos
It's true. No one really knows what's going on. No scientist, no religious priest, no philosopher, no lunatic really no one actually has ultimate answers. We are born into a mystery, truly. What does it take each one of us to admit, that we are all just trying to make sense of things? Life is …
The two cups
Each day we wake, there are two cups in front of us. One is that of truth and life and the other is that of selfishness. Now within each day, you fill those cups. One more than the other one. The words you speak, the deeds you do, the thoughts in your mind, they fill …
