Mago Merlino disse: "Arriverà un giorno, in cui capirai che Tutto l'universo vive dentro di te. Allora sarai un mago. Come mago non vivi nel mondo, il mondo vive dentro di te… Quando questo accadrà inizierai a manifestare invece di attrarre. E capirai che non ti manca nulla, solo non hai ancora visto dentro di te ciò che stai cercando tanto… "

A te che come me soffri e piangi, trova la luce all’interno della tua mente e incomincia a creare, sarà la vita a venir fuori spaccando montagne di dolore.

Cerca dentro di te, hai una vita per essere. Essere il ricercatore di te stesso, essere amore, essere coscienza, essere te.

Rompi quel dolore che è la tua gabbia, e fai uscir da te gli oceani in forma di lacrima.

Libera la tua essenza, illumina la tua vita e colora la tua anima. Soffri in modo consapevole e costruttivo, e poi ridi!

Ridi come se tutta quella sofferenza non fosse stato altro che una bugia, dietro alla quale c’eri te aspettando di essere scoperto dalla tua propria coscienza.

Ridi, ridi, ridi forte! Perché soltanto ridendo della tua propria disgrazia sarai in grado di guarire da ciò che ti imprigionava.

Soltanto ridendo da questa enorme bugia che ti copriva, tornerai ad essere ciò che sei sempre stato: Il Divino.

Dance, when you’re broken open. Dance, if you’ve torn the bandage off. Dance in the middle of the fighting. Dance in your blood. Dance when you’re perfectly free.

My story isn’t pleasant, it’s not sweet and harmonious like the invented stories; it tastes of folly and bewilderment, of madness and dream, like the life of all people who no longer want to lie to themselves.

Vi sono anime liete, puntuali alla luce, come al fiato di marzo margherite. Così fosse di me. Verso il mattino, quando i sogni si fanno verticali per leggerezza, io sono d’un tessuto trasparente; nelle mie vene l’alba beve il suo fresco vino. Ma subito, al risveglio, con un muto grido di metamorfosi, la carne ha già escluso la luce. Già mi ingombro di cupi stami. Pollini irrequieti mi violentano e fuggono. – Mai sazia, infecondata. – A me verrà la Grazia con l’erpice di luglio, la vampata del sole a piombo.

I find workaholism really anti-fertile. For example, in my work with Scandinavian schools with biophilia, it is very apparent that short schooldays and a lot of free time inspires the imagination most and not only makes the kids happier but also they make more original things in the end. I’ve seen how the working until midnight in the biggest cities is really destructive, and you aren’t coming up with any new ideas but just repeating old stuff on a loop.

In the beginning of creation, the entire atmosphere is virgin, it is pure and in that pure atmosphere, unto those pure minds comes the wisdom of the Vedas. The wisdom of the basic rhythms of life, the wisdom of the basic waves of energy which constitute the fundamentals of individual life in the entire creation, is recorded when it dawns to them. ‘Risha yah mantradrishtarah’

Rishi is a word that means those who contemplate. Rishis (sages) are the seers of the mantras and Maharishis are those who apply the knowledge for the good of the world. In the beginning of creation comes the wisdom of the creation, the wisdom of right and wrong. The wisdom of the creation means how creation comes into existence, how it grows, the entire process of its evolution and all dissolution. In the process of evolution comes this good and bad.

All that is good is that which helps the process of evolution. All that we say bad, helps the soul to go down, opposite to the path of evolution. Either we advance and make our consciousness grow - consciousness grow means become wiser, more intelligent, more powerful, happier – either we attain Bliss Consciousness and go high up or go down. Go down means become less pure, become degenerated, become less capable of power, energy, and intelligence, become less capable of enjoying.

Now this we have experienced enough; when our mind becomes tense then we are doomed, all that good is around us but we just begin to feel bad and everything is bad, and nothing is good. We begin to suffer. Next morning, we meditate and feel good, this is also good, and this is also good and you are also right and he is also right. It is a state of consciousness. That means if our consciousness is pure and is in tune with that purity of life which is pure intelligence, then we are able to enjoy more, we are able to create more, we are able to understand more. If our consciousness is not pure, if we have overshadowed our consciousness due to something or other, maybe some wrong thought, maybe some wrong diet, maybe we did something bad and then the consciousness is down. Low consciousness means we fail to enjoy, we fail to understand, we fail to produce. Productivity becomes less, creativity becomes less, understanding becomes less and the capacity to enjoy becomes less. That is why we meditate and make our consciousness purer and thereby gain more ability to enjoy everything.

That is greater purity. In the beginning of creation when the entire Cosmos is so pure, in those pure minds which transcend and want to know something, the entire knowledge of the creation, all basic fundamentals of life, dawn to them. And how do they dawn to them? In many ways they receive, are said to visualize the hymns, they come to their vision. Formulas come to their vision and these become the Vedas. To visualize the laws of nature means the functioning of nature is so vivid to them, is so clear to their perception that they know everything as one knows a thing when he visualizes it.

You are what your deep, driving desire is.

— Brihadaranyaka Upanishad

Desire is the key to life, because desire is power. The deeper the desire, the more power it contains.

Most people start life with many small desires. Their power and vitality trickle away in many directions. None of their desires is deep enough to contain much power. But there are people whose lives are molded by only a few, consuming desires. Such people usually achieve their goals. Because their desires are unified, their will becomes nearly invincible. To desire something deeply is to will it, and to will is to achieve. If they want to become a great artist, build a bigger pyramid, explain the movements of the planets, they devote their life to that, and usually succeed. Wherever you find great success in life, it is fueled by the intense unification of desires.

But the most successful people of all are the rare men and women like Mahatma Gandhi and Saint Teresa of Avila who have but one desire. All lesser desires have been consumed in the great fire of love for God.
