It’s your solemn duty to learn how to enjoy this thing! —Alan Watts

 

.

All that you are attached to, all that you Love,
all that you know, someday will be gone.

Knowing this, and that the world is your mind
which you create, play in, and suffer from,
is known as discrimination.

Discriminate between the real and the unreal.

The known is unreal and will come and go
so stay with the Unknown, the Unchanging Truth.

All which appears and disappears is not real,
and no nectar will come from it so do not cling to it.


—Papaji

.

There are always moments when one feels empty, estranged and afraid. 

You are detaching, the old is over and the new has not yet come. The soul has cast its moorings and is sailing for distant places. 

Remember the instruction: whatever you come across 
- go beyond. 


—Nisargadatta Maharaj
