Category: Love
So Roger and Mady dropped us again in Wiesbaden. The goodbye was with tears in the eyes but this is the travelling life. You have to say goodbye often. Physical distance is there and you want to be physically close to those whom you love. But if you have closeness from the heart you feel the other one with you even if he is miles away. Now we are with Thomas and Iris which is also wonderful. I am very happy to have so many great people who open their hearts and homes for me.
We were sitting in Thomas’ and Iris’ living room when the door bell rang and one of their neighbours stood in front of the door. He is an old man from America, 83 years old. He gave a sheet of paper to Thomas who promised to fax it for him. Iris told us that he regularly comes with some things that they fax for him because he doesn’t know how it works or they translate something for him which he doesn’t understand.
Thomas and Iris are very good neighbours. It is really nice how they help this man and when I said this to Iris, she said yes, we also don’t know if we understand the technique that will be in 50 years. Maybe we will also need someone to help us with that. And this is what I also say often: Treat others in the way that you expect them to treat you.

I love being close to the people I love. It doesn't make sense to me when people are far, my mind does not process it well. Distance has always signified a great amount of confusion for me.

Physical distance is hard for some people. I just don't care how close my body is to the people I love. I know that I love them. That's fine.

it is really good to hear of people helping each other. I often wonder too what kind of invention will I have trouble using when I'm eighty. Hard to imagine what there will be.

Accept yourself as you are. You can follow a good and healthy example but don't go in any competition. You are fine as you are.
SourceNo, money is not everything and you cannot express the value of everything in Euros, Dollars or Rupees!
SourceDetachment is when you get happy by giving.
SourceLove is not a spark, it is the light that shows you the way. A spark is a spark, only for a moment and when it is gone you are in darkness. Love is the light.
SourceMaybe this time, which we are experiencing now, will later be called ‘Digital Bhakti Kal’, a time of devotion through digital media. Applications and programs will be interactive scriptures that judge your spiritual progress. There will be an option to pay some money and get access to higher levels and ranks straight away. It will be expensive but those who have the money can get online enlightenment from one second to the other simply via credit card.
SourceTeach your children that there is nothing wrong if you get wrinkles when you get older and that grey hair doesn’t take any of your beauty. Teach them to love themselves. Help them feel good in their body just as it is.
SourceYou need hope to believe, to survive and live. This whole world and everybody keeps on breathing because of hope.
SourceFighting your ego - a continuous struggle with yourself?
SourceYou will never be alone if you believe in truth.
SourceIn this age and time, people don’t even have time for themselves, so if someone takes out time to strengthen your friendship, it is great, appreciate it.
SourceMoney does not make people rich or poor. Someone who has 1000 Dollars seems rich to someone who only has 100 Dollars whereas he seems poor to a millionaire. Numbers don’t make you rich. Some millionaires whom I consider poor and I have seen people who don’t have money but who, to me, are very rich people because of their big heart and generosity.
Source‘You should not judge’ is often used by masters and Gurus to keep their disciples and followers from questioning what they are doing.
SourceHope is always good and it is part of having a positive attitude. Believing that the impossible will happen is either closing the eyes in front of reality or just stupid.
SourceBeing spiritual cannot mean denying your sexuality and becoming celibate. Accept your sexuality in a spiritual way. Sexuality, driven by love, can be only spiritual, nothing else. God created us how we are and with sexuality being a part of us. Do not neglect that.
SourceIncrease your ego until you say ‘I am god’. I am that. You are that source that you come from, you are that! Tat Tvam Asi. But not only you, everyone around you, too!
SourceBe honest, even if you know the other one won't be happy about your answer!
SourceDon’t leave anybody for too long, otherwise they get used to living without you.
SourceDo what you feel is right. That will make you happy.
SourceWhenever a scripture of any religion recommends physical punishment, it was written by a man who enjoyed that women and children cannot resist and are physically weaker.
SourceTrust in yourself and have confidence. You don't need anyone who makes you afraid with stories of a past life or makes promises for the future. Live in presence and have trust in your love.
