Each person was meant to blossom into their own unique signature of greatness.
Real humility is graceful power, not a mandate to be victimized and abused.

Your pain was always a part of a plan to open your heart to love.
The tides of change have great purpose in our lives.
Growth and empowerment requires reflection and facing the frightening, ugly, hard and unbearable reality.

Pain is as expansive as life itself. Pain grows with us and in us as a cultivation of life’s unfolding.
If you want relief from pain just strive to touch more of every part of life.
A goal that is not written is not a goal. It only becomes real when you write it down.
Most worldly goals for so-called success are soul traps similar to quicksand.
Dare to believe that good things are possible when you follow your heart.
If you want meaning in your life you must give your life meaning.
Crossing the Rubicon of absolute pain is the only journey of purpose and meaning in life.
Clear out all of those doubts and fears. Let the past be the past. It’s time.
You have to get clear in your present life — clear of the junk from your past.
Reliving your painful past will poison your heart and your tomorrow.
When someone is suffering, there is a deep, visceral reaction in the core of our being, a flood of empathy and a frightfully desperate compulsion to give aid.
Are you so dead inside you don’t feel the daily anguish, terror and deathly suffering of millions? What happened to you? You’ve changed.
Intelligence is often worshiped, even when that intelligence allows unfathomable injustice and suffering to occur under its smart watch.
Out of our suffering we emerge. Our struggles are really our only hope.
Your suffering is there to inspect you and perfect you. We are made complete by our pain.
All your troubles, struggles, pains and suffering is worth one good thing.
If you don’t accept and respect your suffering, it isn’t going anywhere.
Your pain is reminding you that the gift of life is tender and precious. Suffering cuts to the quick of aliveness.
Eons of suffering, brutality and struggle have paved the way through the corridors of time to create this moment, where you exist as an exalted expression of life.
Avoiding pain causes endless suffering for you and others. Avoiding pain is really selfishness.
Do not be a “go along, get along” person when it comes to the suffering of others. Integrity is not a popularity contest. Stand for love!

Lust for possession and greed has ravaged the soul of humanity like a great cancer, metastasizing throughout society in the form of a nouveau post-human, consumer hedonism.
Humanity needs heroic leadership from those who see all life as precious.
Life is nothing short of a phenomenon. In every sense life is mysterious and unfathomable.
You are a unique and beautiful expression of the mysterious gift of life and creation.
Taking advice is fine; by all means, be open-minded, but not to the point of allowing others to obliterate your uniqueness.
When someone is attacking you, they are coming to you for advice.
You set the standard for how people will treat and regard you, by how you treat and regard yourself.
Even when something is not your fault, toxic blame has no place in your life. Focus on your own empowerment and healing.

There is an intelligent healing process inside of you that knows how to absorb pain and transform it into wisdom.
Progress and healing involves seeing every person as not so different from ourselves.
When you succumb to cynicism, darkness, pessimism and sarcasm you are amplifying imbalance and negativity.
Your intelligence is a fire that can illuminate any darkness. Awaken and let your mind burn so brightly! You are alive for a reason!
To love your weakness, negativity and darkness is to accept half of who you are.
If you have a poverty of heart then you are the poorest among the poor.
You are the greatest undiscovered adventure of your lifetime.

There are graceful ways of accessing your purpose and success, with time, invitation, gentleness, cooperation and surrender.
The pinnacle of human consciousness must be the rejection of unhealthy competition, war and violence.
The emergence of one world consciousness must be accompanied with one world political infrastructures.
As your consciousness, refinement and pureness of heart expands you will become less judgmental, less corrective, less reactive, less black-and-white, less critical, less apt to blame and less tormented by others and their faults and views.
We are all students of the world; frail embodied consciousnesses struggling to understand, and be a meaningful part of this great, mysterious gift of life.
Ascension through all levels of consciousness and awareness can only happen when you live life as you, and not how others think you should live. How could self-realization possibly be anything other than being yourself?
Observing the stream of eternal and simple truth is the same for all who look upon the fountainhead of consciousness.
People have moments of consciousness and epiphanies throughout their lives, but then suppress the realization.
The existence of excessive nationalism is a symptom of a deeper problem in the collective consciousness, which is continually being exploited.
The most powerful tools of revolution through intention are humility and consciousness.
We can only save ourselves through elevating our individual consciousness, by realizing there is already completeness within, and exercising as much considerate independence, respect and fairness as is possible.
The war consciousness is purposely cultivated to guide the male away from the natural, healthy balances between masculine and feminine energies, and toward more unbalanced and detached psychologies.
You are what you consume, and as an organism and consciousness, you in fact become a commodity and predator yourself.
To understand the journey you have to do the walking.
Laugh and make the best of every situation. Understand that life is not perfect.
Understand and challenge your personal narrative. Narratives become choices and actions — which become your life.
An intelligent person is never afraid or ashamed to find errors in his understanding of things.
There is truth and knowledge beyond present understanding.
A person at peace can immediately recognize a consciousness in crisis, whereas those in crisis cannot fully understand themselves or others.
There is truth and knowledge beyond understanding.
We must take the money out of politics, and end psychopathic, self-destructive government and corporate madness.
We must rebuild organic communities, where people can come together and have analogue conversations and share stories, art, music and emotions.
The freest societies are in a constant state of revolution.
We must understand that out of community and dialogue, the answers will arrive in their own time and way.
The only way is to teach with love, which requires looking beyond what seems, and remembering we create with our judgements.
You will find your purpose revealed in every single action, once you realize that — you — are your purpose.
Love is a lens of an observer. Love is an attitude with action.
We must let our every act be out of love, and for the greater good of all.
It is better to have a fair intellect that is well used, than a powerful one that is idle.
Every experience is seen through your mind’s eye, so when you change your mind you change your entire world.
Look in your disappointments for the resolve to transform your experiences into solutions.
You will find beauty in every person and experience if beauty has been cultivated within.
As sensory experience junkies, we have been blinded to the majesty in the common.

Your complete intelligence is designed to experience the fullness of life, not a narrow omission of its best possibilities.
The secret to discovery is to never believe existing facts.
Within you, you will find everything you need to be complete.
When we do not know our true identity as powerful creators, we are susceptible to being used and manipulated.
Support what is good and spit out what is bad. Get off of your knees and reject the role of slave to the culture of violence.
In a stress pressure-cooker like America, I believe we will see more and more shooting massacres. Violence is in our cultural DNA.
The starting point to freedom is to begin questioning the cultural narrative you have been sold.
We have been trained by a culture of violence and we are all agents of passive violence.
We all know there is something wrong with our culture, the state of our world, and with ourselves.
The inherent prejudice in unnaturally-produced nationalism causes a form of cultural blindness, which prevents us from seeing the obvious ways we could co-exist in the world as a co-operative human family.
When the dark clouds of doubt, anger or worry begin to move upon you, steady yourself in the knowledge that in time, the storm will pass.
Let your resistance, judgements, angers and fears inform you.
Any act of violence creates resentment and resistance, because humans were meant to be free.
You can know something is a lie when it has no love in it.
Life wants you to know that feelings are more important than facts, and you should never hurt someone just to be right.
When you feel lost turn towards love. Become a seeker of beauty in all things.
When negative feelings move upon you, reflect, and recognize the danger of feeding those feelings and keeping them alive.
Almost everything a person thinks is a lie, and an assault against the natural soul.
You think that if you blame, you will then be free of those problems, but blame cements you to your problems.
You have to do some thinking and know who you are, and then you have to resist compromising your truth for the comfort of others.
Beware! Success is not what you think it is. It’s a trap.
If you feel trapped quit thinking about the trap and start thinking about your value. Life favors value. Value is your way out.
All of the great mastermind thinkers throughout history have known that we become our thoughts.
All problems begin when we start worrying what others think of us.
An important step in escaping mediocrity is to stop worrying about what other people think of you.
Start thinking of your guilt as being selfish, because guilt blocks opportunities from arriving for those you care about and for you.
Negative self-talk and negative affirmation can keep you anchored in old thought patterns and identities.
So many of our problems begin when we start worrying what others think of us.
You are only plagued with stress in moments of conflict because you are arrogant, and believe others are transgressing by having unfavorable thoughts about you.
In the face of every type of pain, we tend to think that life will never be the same, but guess what, it was never going to be the same anyway.
Having a sense of purpose is having a sense of self. A course to plot is a destination to hope for.
Love always was and always will be the only real answer. Why else do you think we have been taught so much hate?
Your love for beauty has been perverted, repressed and savaged by hateful and controlling elements in the world.
Love gives without expectation, while hate carries an endless tally of debts.
Love only serves and does not calculate. Love gives without expectation, while hate carries an endless tally of debts. Hate controls everything it touches, but love sets everything it touches free.
There is no enemy that respect and love will not conquer. The moral authority for survival comes from respect.
Innocence still lives within our hearts and the child within each of us knows right from wrong.
We huddle tightly together as cowards, protecting the ranks of our false collective identity from “less-human” intruders, when the only obvious and sane truth is that we are all the same human beings.
You will be a beautiful person, as long as you see the beauty in others.
Remember that any desire is tested; the greater the desire, the greater the tests.
The greatest self is a peaceful smile, that always sees the world smiling back.

If you were really humble you would be great, because humility would never squander the magnificent gift of life.
You need not strive to become your greater purpose.

There is no greater path than the act of listening, because the observer who listens can begin to see themselves as a part of one expression of purpose and beingness.
Real transformation requires real honesty. If you want to move forward — get real with yourself.
Everything comes by being! Be the love you seek. Be the friend you seek. Be the lover you seek. Be the honesty you seek. Be the integrity you seek.
There is nothing you will ever do that is more important than being honest about who you really are.
Witnessing honesty frightens some people because they haven’t known authenticity in their own life.
You are lost because you have not been being honest with yourself, and your life is largely unexamined and unexerted.
A democracy of mean and ignorant people is just as scary as any other horrible form of government.
Deep-rooted beliefs are one of the many consequences of intellect, and also of ignorance; and telling one from the other is sometimes impossible.
This is the eternal challenge with ignorance — ignorance can’t see itself.
Most people do not actually know how to think for themselves, and unfortunately that prevents them from even knowing it.
Did you play by the rules and work hard but feel empty and unfulfilled? It’s because you were lied to.
The acceptable is unacceptable. The truth is a lie. The good is pure evil. Even freedom has become a prison.
Almost everything you think is sacred, good and decent, is a lie and an all-out assault against truth and decency.
The biggest liar you will ever meet is yourself. It is amazing the lies we tell ourselves because of fear.
Freedom is the most sophisticated form of control. The best lies use the truth.
If you can’t be who you really are then what is life but an unbearable lie?
REJECT THE LIES AND VIOLENCE. STAND FOR LOVE, TRUTH, DECENCY AND THE COMMON GOOD.
Eat beautiful foods, which are nutritionally dense, wholesome and natural.
Simple foods connect with your body’s needs in complex ways.
Love foods that sustain and protect you, and love you back.

When we want to talk, we can instead listen, and let our attentiveness to another’s need to speak be our silent statement.

You should never have a relationship based on guilt over someone’s poor choices.
Always choose to trust yourself and your ability to listen.
All defensiveness and emotional tumult is a fear response because of your need for acceptance and ruthless control of the territory of your safe fantasy world.
Quit pretending to be humble when you are really just a self-abusing, emotional, drama junkie.
When we can’t let go of the past, painful moments accumulate in us; metastasizing in our consciousness like an emotional cancer.

Evolve your understanding of success from the outer realm of control, materialism, and ego, to the inner realm of surrender, spirituality, and compassion.
Hurts are just alerts, to rise above through love.
Even when someone hurts you, you choose how to struggle, resist, deny and receive.
In reverent pauses, when we slow down and think about the gift of life, we may briefly touch humility.
The subtle whispers, cues and nudges are there as guideposts, to gently carry the humble listener along the path back to the source and the true self.
Humility is patient because it is neither past nor forward seeking — it is content.
Surrender is not a weakness, but rather an empowering state of humility.
