I was watching my neighbour going for a long procedure of preparing his car for a night. He was setting on the very powerfully loud alarm, putting a wheel lock around his steering wheel, locking the gate of his car park... Also, he would wake up during the night two, three times just to check that everything is alright with his car. Once I asked him, “Do you worry that someday your car might fall in love with someone else and decide to leave you?” He looked at me as if I am crazy. I heard recently that he was killed by his car while cleaning it underneath. He forgot to put the brake on a hill.

Obsession is the state of doing. The state of doing is the process of thinking. You cannot choose to think, or to choose to stop your thinking. You don’t have any control over the process of thinking. You cannot stop your mind - period. How many times did you forget your car key, or how many times you did not press brake on your car? Once is enough to be killed.

There is no power in the mind to stop itself? No! Illusion doesn’t have any power. The power is in your consciousness. Detach your consciousness from the mind. Where is your thinking? Stop identifying yourself with your mind- where is your mind? The mind collapses not by its own decision, but by the witnessing, by you not participating with the mind. Do you get it?

Ivan Rados - The Art Of Meditation

When you are thankful for whatever is present in your life, life will expand and give you even more blessings.

Remember to be thankful for everything that is, exactly as it is , right now, because gratitude makes magic happen, and can shift your present circumstances in amazing ways.

Stay open and become a resonant channel of receiving and of giving…

Love is eternal, but it isn't permanent. It's ever-changing in each moment, for its eternal quality is in the Now. When we try to make love permanent instead of experiencing its eternal nature each changing moment, it becomes sentimental. Similarly, when we make bliss permanent, we create the polarities of happiness and unhappiness. When we make truth permanent, it becomes a falsehood. So too, when we attempt to make health a permanent state instead of a flow of being, it becomes disease.

Dead things are permanent. Everything alive is changing from moment to moment, for it's only through its ever-changing expression that its eternal quality can be known. Hence, only to the degree we're detached from any particular reality are we free to experience the whole of reality in its eternally flowing Nowness.

Ivan Rados - Health It’s All About Consciousness

Love your pain, your sadness, your stubborn ness, your difficult family members, your challenging situations at work. Love all your triggers and current challenges - whatever they may be.

We often want to make that blissful feeling after ceremony last. And even though you will likely see your life shift in amazing ways after such an experience, you may still have things you encounter that will trigger you. Love all of it. The amazing thing is, after communing with the medicine, you will have gained conscious awareness & a new perspective on the things which persist in your life.

Medicine is not a magic wand - but how you integrate , how conscious you are to what shows up in your life, and shifting your awareness - is.

When you make a conscious choice to love all your shit , love everything in your life, exactly as it is, and surrender - you may just notice that you ‘disarm’ the issues in your life, and they do not hold such a power over you.

All those things that seemed difficult before become messengers and teachers. So - be with it all. Embrace it . Love your shit. All of it. And say thank you.
