Tower21

“Do not desperately seek refuge in heaven and delve in blissful ignorance; discover the fires and infernos of hell that have sprung inside of you.”
― Forrest Curran, Purple Buddha Project: Purple Book of Self-Love

“In life hard times will befall you that will create doubt in yourself, and life will ask questions of the authenticity of the person you are. Carrying the lotus means being true to yourself and in the realization that you were always meant to grow above this mud. We are meant to grow, progress, and evolve in this relentless environment of the World and through it all achieve happiness with grace in letting go. Carry the Lotus within; grow and rise above from the harsh and remorseless world beneath you.”
― Forrest Curran, Purple Buddha Project: Purple Book of Self-Love

“All is contained within the silence of death, the quietest and the loudest sound in the universe.”
― Forrest Curran, Purple Buddha Project: Purple Book of Self-Love

“Plunging into the depths of hell, re-opening the gates to wounds and emotions that we have long tried to keep sealed and locked within, we discover that that the devil is not the Herculean ruler of darkness that we had imagined, but only a vulnerable and devastated child. With honesty and without judgment, we must muster the courage to meet this innocent child with whom we have come to label as the devil.”
― Forrest Curran, Purple Buddha Project: Purple Book of Self-Love
