Category: Really nothing
I was talking on phone with my friend Thomas and gave him my love to recover soon. He is close to my heart! I will see him and Iris next week in Wiesbaden. This will be the last step before we go to India. I am looking forward. Everybody is! It is always quite a while until I get to go home again. But I have friends everywhere who are also like family and in whose homes I feel like home. I am not in the mood to write too much today.

Traveling can really leave you stumped for words can't it? In fact I am traveling right now, so I'll stop here. Keep on trekking!

Don’t let your ego keep you from saying sorry. It does not make you small to apologize. Overcome your ego and apologize for the wrong you did.
SourceYou don’t need a church or temple to pray and get in touch with god.
SourceNot rarely you can see that yoga or meditation gurus mix two common practices and call it their own, put a patent on it and then sell it.
SourcePeople who are really religious have a strong belief that nothing happens without God’s wish. So if you really think this, how come you get so excited and even angry if someone does not share your belief? Don’t you think that this, too, is God’s wish?
SourceGod is not a Hindu, Christian, Jew, Muslim or Buddhist. He does not have a certain form, shape or colour. The same God that lives in you also lives in me and will be there even if all religions vanish from this world.
SourceWe often live for others, trying to make them happy by being how they want us to be. We want to wear a mask of what we are not. But you cannot make everyone happy! We have had this experience hundreds of times but still we do the same again and again. Be original and who you are.
SourceNever give up and never lose hope. You can always make a change.
SourceIn western culture sharing is not important. People divide and own. This is mine and that is yours. This is my car; that is your house. It is the ego of owning something. There is too much individuality. Share with others!
SourceYou share everything with everybody and everybody shares everything with you. Just out of love. In this case the source is love, not ego. When you want to share your happiness with others and want to share other peoples’ pain, sharing is a great and positive thing.
SourceMany sportspeople make themselves dependent on a psychological illusion. It is the right seat in the bus due to which they win, not their talent. It is the lucky glove which had them catch the ball, not their good eyes and training to stand at the right spot!
SourceIndia does not need entertainment events that cost Billions of Dollars while every minute five poor Indians die of hunger and about half of Indian’s children below five are malnourished.
SourceSometimes religion is like poison. Look at these people who gather others around themselves, making up their own ‘religion’ by interpreting some scripture in their own way and create rules. It steals the freedom of the mind. You need to know yourself what is right for you and everybody has different ideas of what is good or bad, right or wrong.
SourceYou are the best expert for your children!
SourceScriptures were written by men, in a male-dominated society, when war, killing and fighting was a daily occurrence, when people were tortured, women were beaten and slaves were being held. You cannot call that holy.
SourcePeople may laugh about the superstition of the unlucky black cat but take it very serious if an astrologer gives them a warning about an unlucky day in their horoscope!
SourceVegetarianism starts at home. Show your kids how to caress animals, your cat just like farm cows! Why can you eat a cow, not a cat?
SourceThere is a difference in between friends and customers. Customers want something from you. Friends want you.
SourceYou can trust people only when you know them and you can only get to know them if they show what they feel. So make a start and show what you feel.
SourceIf you live in love, you are spiritual.
SourcePlease do not hurt others by saying what you do not mean! Don't think you can finish a relationships from one day to the other! It will not let you come to peace!
