QotD: Lakota Namaste

"Upon suffering beyond suffering; the Red Nation shall rise again and it shall be a blessing for a sick world. A world filled with broken promises, selfishness and separations. A world longing for light again. I see a time of seven generations when all the colors of mankind will will gather under the sacred Tree of Life and the whole earth will become one circle again. In that day there will be those among the Lakota who will carry knowledge and understanding of unity among all living things, and the young white ones will come to those of my people and ask for this wisdom. I salute the light within your eyes where the whole universe dwells. For when you are at that center within you and I am that place within me, we shall be as one."
--Crazy Horse
 "Democracy is a pathetic belief in the collective wisdom of individual ignorance. No one in this world, so far as I know—and I have researched the records for years, and employed agents to help me—has ever lost money by underestimating the intelligence of the great masses of the plain people. Nor has anyone ever lost public office thereby."
--
Henry Louis Mencken in 'Notes On Journalism' in the Chicago Tribune (19 September 1926)

QotD: Your Path

 Your confusion is not pathology, it is path. It has something to show you that clarity could never reveal. The nature of chaos is wisdom, but you must provide a home for it to receive its mysteries.


Your feeling of disconnection is not neurotic, it is intelligent. It has something to show you that oneness could never reveal. If you will practice the yoga of non-abandonment and provide safe passage – it will disclose an unmet doorway.

Your loneliness, your shakiness, and your fear are not mistakes. They are not obstacles on your path. They *are* the path. The freedom you are longing for will never be found in the eradication of the unwanted, but only in the core of the love and information it carries.


There are surges of somatic activity that contain very important information for your journey. If you will offer safe passage for the unknown aliveness, you will meet the messengers of illumination. Nothing is missing, nothing is out of place, and nothing need be sent away.


Yes, you may burn until you are translucent, but it is by way of this burning that your wholeness will be revealed.


~ Matt Licata

QotD: Not Well Informed

The people can not be
all, and always, well informed.
The part which is wrong
will be discontented
in proportion to
the importance of the facts they misconceive.

~Thomas Jefferson

QotD: Fool's Wisdom

The fool who persists
in his folly
will become wise.

--William Blake

QotD: a Right to Experiment

You have a right
to experiment
with your life.
You will make mistakes.
And they are right too.

--Anaïs Nin

QotD: Humility

Keep me away from the wisdom which does not cry,
the philosophy which does not laugh,
and the greatness which does not bow before children.

- Khalil Gibran

QotD: Solitude

Loneliness
is the poverty of self;
Solitude
is the richness of self.

--May Sarton, poet

QotD: Ecclesiastes on Rivers and Cycles

All the rivers run into the sea;
yet the sea is not full;
unto the place from whence the rivers come,
thither they return again.

QotD: Imagination

You can't depend on your judgement
when your imagination is out of focus.
--Mark Twain
