Self-cultivation takes us just as we are with our confusion and our sanity, it gives us time alone with ourselves.  In time it teaches you to accept who you are, as you are, an unconditional friendliness with ourselves, a simple direct relationship with the way we are.

Five days left until the end of the year.  There will be an ending, but with every ending there will be a new beginning.  Limits and endings bring definition to our endeavours.  But if we are to use them to our advantage, we must make a plan to meet them.

Nothing is absolute; this is why you can’t rely on your mind.  To arrive at unshakeable quiet, stop thinking, analyzing and making distinctions between things.  Simply see that you are at the center of the universe and accept all things as being part of you.

In order to grow we need support from others, they are a source of strength to help us achieve our goals.  To gain their support, you need an attitude of truthfulness and sincerity.  Your fame and position will grow not by accident, because it is based on the law of cause and effect.

Quote: When you cultivate a natural response to what life is bringing, you react less and observe more.
