Dr. Vasant Lad on the New Day

Every day is a new day. This day will never come again. So how can we live fully, completely, and totally in harmony with this moment, with this day? Dinacharya is a ancient vedic art of unfolding the inner balance of the body, mind and consciousness and inner balance of
observer, observation and the thing to be observed.

Rupert Spira on Our True Nature

Nothing can truly affect our true nature and it is thoughts that create the illusion that
fear has such unpleasant powers.

The Charaka Samhita, Sutrasthana, on the Channel of the Mind

The channel of the mind is rooted in the heart.
The mind is only one but due to its association with many sense organs, it appears as many.
Oneness and minuteness are the qualities of mind.

Charaka Samhita, Sutrasthana, Foundational text of AYURVEDA Medicine

Jalaluddin Rumi on the Guest House (Self-Acceptance)

This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.
A joy, a depression, a meanness, some momentary awareness comes as an unexpected visitor. Welcome and entertain them all! Even if they’re a crowd of sorrows, who violently sweep your house empty of its furniture, still, treat each guest honorably. He may be clearing you out for some new delight. The dark thought, the shame, the malice, meet them at the door laughing,
and invite them in. Be grateful for whoever comes, because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond.

Dot Fisher-Smith on Awe

Awe is all around us. With a little intentionality, we can reclaim our sense of wonder in the everyday, ordinary moments of life. Perhaps awe, while an ordinary response to the extraordinary, is also an extraordinary response to the ordinary.
