"A truth that has merely been learned sticks to us only like an artificial limb, a false tooth, a waxed nose does or at best like transplanted skin but a truth learned by thinking for ourselves is like a natural limb. It alone really belongs to us. This is what differentiates a thinker from a mere scholar." Arthur Schopenhauer

В День Рождения - I

"... Пусть Надежда никогда не оставляет тебя, а если случайно вы пойдёте разными путями, крикни меня - я помогу тебе её найти! Целую тебя. Люблю тебя. Все мои 100 кг и ещё 200гр - твои, а о Душе я и не говорю - она, моя Душа-душенька как Царь Колокол покрывает тебя всю полностью - попробуй, достань! Я - твоя мама" (из письма)

The Bridge Across

I've Gone Mad - Once Again

and once again - I've come across the answer to my question... “What I witness today so often is that we have a movement going on incongruous with mysticism and that is self-discovery. Self discovery takes you right into yourself, mysticism is supposed to take you out. So we find ourselves in this curious paradoxical crossroads of one part of ourselves becoming incredibly narcissistic on a path where self needs to be done away with. Where do you go with these two? You’ve got two things, two paths that are incongruous operating inside of you simultaneously. What voice do you listen to? You have one voice that says "Get ambitions. You can do whatever you want". And the other voice that says "Leave it up to me and release". How can you not be in madness with this type of dynamic going on? How can you not?" Caroline Myss "Spiritual Madness" (transcript)

On Small and Menial Tasks

"The Divine mind works in paradox. In the human mind in order to be strong it has to be big; in the Divine mind in order to be strong, it IS small. Everything is paradoxical; it is the opposite. You've got to come to know the opposite. In the human mind in order to move a mountain you need bombs, in the Divine mind you need a mustard seed. That doesn't make any sense to the human mind. What are you working with? You are learning a different level of power, you are learning Divine power, you are learning Divine order, and you are learning the way the Divine orders and speaks through your life. Here is where you find yourself developing the sweetness of sight that allows you to look at every task you do and recognize there is no such a thing as a "small task" if this is the task I am supposed to do. There is no such a thing as a "meaningless" thing, as a "meaningless " conversation if this is the conversation I am supposed to have. That is very difficult to live in that: It sounds sweet to hear, and you think in theory "oh, doesn't that feel good?" But when you get to applying the discipline of living in that perception that says there is no such a thing as a small task, and the task that you are asked to do day after day after day is to care for a crippled relative and you feel like your life is passing in front of you, it is very hard to hold your center... It is very hard to hold your center when you feel like you are a creative person whose creativity is going unexpressed and you find yourself doing menial tasks to pay the bills, it is very hard to say "OK, God, this is what you want me to do? This is my path of service? This is great, I am having a good time here!" That is very difficult... But what you are actually learning, what we are actually learning when we go through that is "I am learning to trust that there is no such a thing as an insignificant task, You are asking me to learn that truth, You are asking me to trust that truth". In order to trust that I must do what looks humanly insignificant... I must do that..." Caroline Myss "Spiritual Madness" (transcript)
