The state we call realization is simply being oneself, not knowing anything or becoming anything.

Ramana Maharshi

Everything is fleeting. Why care? Why become emotional about something which is temporary, which you'll soon forget? Just sit back and observe the transience of everything. You'll see how you waste your energy on trifles. Most things are just not worth fretting about.

The Ancient Sage

Do not conquer the world with force, for force only causes resistance. Thorns spring up when an army passes. Years of misery follow a great victory. Do only what needs to be done without using violence.

Be soft. Do not let the world make you hard. Do not let the pain make you hate. Do not let the bitterness steal your sweetness. Take pride that even though the rest of the world may disagree, you still believe it to be a beautiful place.

But you know that disappointment is just the action of your brain readjusting itself to reality after discovering things are not the way you thought they were.

If you know your being, there is no question of becoming. All that you could have ever imagined to become you already are.

Knowing what to leave out is just as important as knowing what to focus on.
