"You do nothing, absolutely nothing. You're watching the thoughts come. As soon as the thoughts come, in a gentle way you inquire, "To whom do these thoughts come? They come to me. I think them. Who is this I? Where did it come from? How did it arise? From where did it arise? Who is the I? Who am I?" You remain still. The thoughts come again. You do the same thing again and again and again, in a gentle, peaceful way." Oct 06, 2019 08:40AM

Anne Somerset
“I hope in the next world I shall be at ease, but in this I find I must not expect it long together.”
Anne Somerset, Queen Anne: The Politics of Passion

“I have always loved the pilgrim narratives of the Bible and of other literature. Exile and wandering, return and setting out again—the heart moving toward its final goal—the heart finding God within, who then sends one forth again. This is the dynamic, not only of the individual pilgrim heart, but of the people of God, all the people who live on this earth as sojourners longing for an eternal home. Pilgrimages are not about one place being more holy than another, for God is everywhere. Making pilgrimages involves a response to something inside us that longs to move toward, that seeks the holy beyond.”
Murray Bodo, The Road to Mount Subasio

Giedra Radvilavičiūtė
“You always find God in the details, but only when you have time.”
Giedra Radvilavičiūtė, Those Whom I Would Like to Meet Again

Alejandra Pizarnik
“I don't know how to speak anymore. And with whom?

I never found a soulmate. No one was a dream. They left me with open dreams, with my central wound wide open, with my heart torn. I mourn myself; this is my right. And yet I look down on those who take no interest in me. My only desire has been.

I will not say it. Even I, or especially I, betray myself. Like a nursing boy, my soul has been soothed. I don't know how to speak anymore. I can't speak anymore. I have taken apart, what they never gave me, which was all I had. And it is death again. It closes in on me, it is my only horizon. No one resembles my dream. I have felt love and they mistreated it, yes, me, I who never loved. The deepest love will disappear forever. What can we love that isn't a shadow? The sacred dreams of childhood have already died, and with them, those of nature, which loved me.”
Alejandra Pizarnik, Extracting the Stone of Madness: Poems 1962 - 1972

Anton Chekhov
“How fortunate Buddha, Mahomed, and Shakespeare were that their kind relations and doctors did not cure them of their ecstasy and their inspiration”
Anton Chekhov, The Lady with the Dog and Other Stories
