Beneath the silence of surrender, a secret radiance appears— not found by force, but unveiled when all effort disappears. --Kavi Jezzie Hockaday

Let the laughter come, even if it has not been heard for a very long time, especially if times are hard and the future uncertain. Laughter is as important in adversity as wisdom and courage. Steven Charleston

Q: Why is there so much suffering in love?1/

THREE MIRACLES The first miracle is that boundless, formless Existence arises as individual forms, calling themselves John or Mary or Dean, but unanimously calling themselves “I,” acting and interacting, having their adventures in time and space. This is called Life.1/

#UkrainianView I remind once again. A substantial part of russian drone program was assisted by #Iran. And they attack Ukrainian cities every week. Why? Because #russiaisaterroriststate and Iran is its ally. Was it also "provoked"? Is Iran is so precious💅 that we should just firgive and forget?

Q: What is happiness? M: Harmony between the inner and the outer is happiness. On the other hand, self-identification with the outer causes is suffering. Nisargadatta Maharaj

If you look very deep Into what we call the darkness And into the shadows You will eventually see Darkness and shadow Are but refractions Of a light that is ever present. @KavijiPoet

There's no such thing as death, life is only a dream and we are an imagination of ourselves." Bill Hicks

RIP dear genius, traiblazer: Brian Wilson: www.nytimes.com/2025/06/11/a...

As I write, I am sitting at a café on Seventh Avenue, watching the world go by. My attention and focus dart to and fro: a girl in a red dress goes by, a man walking a funny dog, the sun emerging from the clouds. 1/

If you can see some beauty in everything Even in the horror and suffering If you can breathe softly and openly Even when your heart is broken And you can keep a small part of yourself Free enough for love’s light to shine in You have already been touched by grace. @KavijiPoet

Moran was just suspended by ABC after posting this. Bravo to him.

There is no ground And when you stop imagining there is After some adjustment There is a deep sense of freedom. --Kavi Jezzie Hockaday

When you no longer look to others – subtly or overtly – to make you happy, you release them from an impossible demand. In place of expectation, you offer the gift of undemanding presence: a space in which others feel free to be themselves without pressure or control. --Rupert Spira

The question isn’t how to balance the material world with the spiritual path. It’s the recognition that when you are established in your being, the material world is no longer a source of comparison or struggle – it becomes the field in which your true nature moves and expresses itself. Rupert Spira

In a time of destruction, create something. A poem. A parade. A community. A school. A vow. A moral principle. One peaceful moment. Maxine Hong Kingston

You walked out of the shop     and saw love everywhere,     the earth offering itself to your feet,     the air to your voice,     the soul of the universe to yours. Pir Elias Amidon

I AM EVERYTHING: Just walking down the street, in a moment when your attention is no longer absorbed in thought... A tree, a passing face, the light on a wall – nothing special, yet everything shines with its essential quality of being. The world no longer conceals its reality. 1/

When you embrace your sorrow As something beautiful You have allowed the river of grace To flow again And it will heal you. --Kavi Jezzie Hockaday

The cruelty .....

It's #FollowAFellaFriday #NAFO, let's get to work. Expansion is NOT negotiable!

Despite the appearance of travelling through time and space, your actual experience always unfolds here, in the motionless field of awareness. Sensations and thoughts flow through you, yet you never move. You do not pass through the world; the world passes through you. --Rupert Spira

True freedom is the willingness for life to be as it is, no matter how it appears.... Paradoxically, in completely accepting everything just as it is, there is space for something truly new and creative to enter the picture. And this space is never not here. -Joan Tollifson-

When you turn toward the light Whatever was held in darkness Is awakened And starts knocking on the door Wanting to get to that light Integration is the journey Of opening that door As best we can Even though it may Hurt like hell Or take us beyond What is comfortable. @KavijiPoet

As Rumi wrote, ‘Flow down and down in ever widening rings of being.’¹ When you sink beneath the surface of experience and rest in your essential nature, the boundaries you once imagined dissolve. 1/

'True friends never really meet. They are in each other all along.’ --Rumi
