It is always interesting to think about the deep wishes that everyone has inside themselves, those which you may not even be consciously aware of but which are always there and influence all your actions.
It is not about the sports-car that you want to buy next year, not about the house that you want to build in five years. It is about the wish to have security which drives the wish to have a house. It is about the wish to be seen and be important which drives the wish to have the sports-car.
And yes, of course some of you might say that it is pathetic male thinking to believe that your sports-car makes you important, but women do the same thing just in a different way. Men could say at this point that women have this wish to be seen much more than men.
There are more wishes inside you which go further than outer appearance. Some are just our basic needs: the need for something to eat, warmth, the need for light and fresh air and then of course the need for closeness, security and love. These form many of our wishes even if we are not aware of this. This, too, is our nature and why would you try to hide or change this? Just be natural, be you!

Aside from basic physical needs (food, water, shelter), I think that most emotional needs stem from the need for love. If we were fulfilled with unconditional love, would we really need fancy clothes? Would we need sports cars? Would we need to weigh a certain amount? Just listen to the Beatles... All you need is love. :)

You can stop smoking right now; it is only your willpower, only your wish and only your decision. Promise yourself not to touch any cigarette in your life anymore even if you die because of it. I can guarantee that you will not die without smoking.
SourceReligion keeps people under control by creating a feeling of guilt and having sinned. That is why they always promote that you cannot be 100% happy with yourself and your life.
SourceAnything can be meditation if you are there with your full awareness.
SourceEgo can make you blind so that you are not able to see the truth which will affect your decisions.
SourceWouldn't it be best if we all could just be humans and not let religious leaders earn a lot of money through their manipulation.
SourceDharma is not religion. Dharma is the tasks that I want to do from my heart, not something that I have to do because I was born to Hindu parents.
SourceYou need to bring love and feelings into your work. Enjoy what you are doing, meet others with happiness and feelings instead of being like a stone. There are principles in business but they are man-made. Make love and feelings a part of those principles.
SourceIt is the ego of believing that you are perfect which kills all your happiness in what you do.
SourceLife teaches every human. Let it teach your child, too! You are there for bigger problems, decisions and topics, you can protect when it is really necessary, but let your child face circumstances of life in which it learns of life. How will it learn otherwise?
SourceReligion is imagination and interpretation but also wants to control. That is why people start turning away from religions. They are told which way to go but they want freedom! Let people believe what they wish to believe. Always choose freedom and love.
SourceGuilt is the result of the wish for perfection. You want to be perfect and this mistake proves that you failed, so you carry it around, defending your mistake, blaming others, hiding so that nobody finds out that you are not perfect. Everybody makes mistakes and nobody is perfect!
SourceReligion tells you that you are allowed to laugh and cry, to feel hungry and thirsty but not to feel horny. Is this not a natural feeling? How can you live normally and naturally while being disrespectful to one of the most natural feelings in this world? Celibacy is the most unnatural concept that you can think of.
SourceLearning is not only for children. Life can always teach you something, your age doesn’t matter. It is wonderful to be curious for something new, something you have not experienced yet.
SourceWe are mostly happy when we take but true happiness is when you enjoy giving.
SourceWhy do we need a tragedy to stop believing in God?
SourceDon’t set the moral standards for another person higher than for yourself!
SourceWhy do gurus want you to switch off your Brain and follow them with the words: Don't think!?
SourceEverybody is spiritual in his own way. Even if you don’t go into a temple or church or are not sure about god, you are spiritual if you believe in love.
SourcePeople embrace religion simply as a good way of doing wrong without a bad conscience.
SourceIf you don’t receive what you wished for, accept that it is God’s wish for you not to have it. He does what is best for you.
