Gratefulness
As a person I am your servant. As a soul I am a ray of you. Giving up ego I am you.
the firm decision to be human myself. To be empathic , loving, creative, forgiving, grateful…
I would ask my friend to take care of my daughter and himself, wright a view lines to say thank you to some people and then stay with my breathing lovingly moment by moment. But I really don’t know what will be then and how I will be then. It is always the last moment because it woun’t come back
There is fulness . Inumerable forms, colors , shadows, moving things and animals which are a universe in itself.
Expectations are desires. Something should come or something should not come. They are based on the past. The past should be or not be in the future. All happiness coming out of these thoughts is very temporary. Gratefulness comes from seeing that which is always there. That which is always loving, giving and nourishing. It will manifest in different situations, feelings, forms. It is always fresh and unexpected. The way to see it Moment by moment is , surrender and let go. This is how I bec...
Expectations are desires. Something should come or something should not come. They are based on the past. The past should be or not be in the future. All happiness coming out of these thoughts is very temporary. Gratefulness comes from seeing that which is always there. That which is always loving, giving and nourishing. It will manifest in different situations, feelings, forms. It is always fresh and unexpected. The way to see it Moment by moment is , surrender and let go. This is how I become grateful in this moment
Most of the time I do forget that I exist because of earth, sun, air and so on. Yet they nourish me all the time . Moment by moment
YesterdayI was younger? Tomorrow I will be older? I never felt it . But it is true body is changing. It is hurting here and there and I have to work slower. Someday it will be gone. Also my mind is changing. So i have to use the mind in a different way as I did some years ago. But the joy of this age , I am 61 years old is, that I don‘ t worry to much about it. As many of you say every day. In the present there is no time..
I had lessons for many years in singing old Indian Dhrupadstyle. Today i will start learning a new Raag, which is called Darbari Kanada. So let me tune my Tanpura and start…
Today was one of these days were I thought that everything and everybody is working against me. but everything is as it is. it shows me that I was against everything and everybody … What a fool I am sometimes! But I value this guy, who is me , because i choose to live with him. The benefit is that I am in peace with myself.
It is no place and no special time. But if there is possibility it must be here and now.
By seeing that everybody says me. So it is within everyone. If it is within everyone , why should it not be within everything? I think there is tenderness everywhere , only mind wants hard facts..
Sometimes we don‘t see the flowers on the right or left side. Sometimes we need someone who knows if we have to go left or right. Sometimes we need an umbrella or someone who is making a joke. Sometimes we need a place for a little rest. I try to be there giving life (of which we all are part of) what i can
I try to turn to the one who loves me as I am.
Embrace the moment, like a mother embraces her beloved child.
living out of the insight who we really are.
Trust in life.
We should not easily trust our mind or emotions. As Long as intellect and feelings are connected to the ego and not to the heart of all humanity we suffer of intellect and wrong feelings.
There is someone who is touching , knowing or unknowingly. And the other one is touched. But I always have the feeling I am touched because it shows something that is the same in him and in me. It might be the same joy , happiness or suffering. there is some kind of understanding without thinking. It is direct. Some touches can be felt for a long time.
Is delight the same as joy? If yes, then it comes from giving . Giving time, a smile, appreciation . I don‘t have money which I can give but I can give good thoughts or prayers for people in my surroundings. A kind word or a light touch can give joy. Looking into somebodies eyes whom I don‘t know often is rewarded with a smile from human to human. I love that.
Since I was born, constantly there is war, cruelty and murder. Why do we as human beings create weapons, sell it, buy it or use it? I think most of the time it happens because of our mental state of negative emotions. Fear, anger, depression, wanting to have something which I don‘t have. I think we actively have to seek joy within and make others joyful. Positive feelings like joy, love, contentment, thankfulness are the best skills to hinder our mental sickness and use weapons.

Or killing thousands of animals because I like to eat them because of their taste. Love, compassion, joy on a human level must be active . It is the activity of the soul..
My best wishes for your recovery, Don. Take care
