You are much more than what you know you are...


Amazing video, please excuse the embedded advertising messages that come with the video.

Here is a subset of a conversation I had today with a colleague, I thought I would share some of my ramblings with you:

you are much more than you know you are
what you are is indescribable!
what you see in the mirror each day is just a facade
our true nature is love, unimaginable intelligence and compassion
the pathway to potential that is the opposite of what the world would know it to be
path to potential lies not in ego or blowing your trumpet, its about humility
path to potential lies not in our own selfish needs but for the greater good of the planet
path of potential is not being a millionaire it is about living simply and being content
path to potential is not about doing lots of things, its about doing a fewer important things
path to potential implies we have to look at these paradoxes, or at least re-evaluate ourselves
once you do that the potential starts opening up
once you start abusing it starts closing up
its never a final destination
we all are imperfect
its our struggle with our imperfections that makes us perfect
its like a baptism of fire
the fire of struggle burns away our impurities

Peace,

Kirpal


"You were born with potential.
You were born with goodness and trust.
You were born with ideals and dreams.
You were born with greatness.
You were born with wings.
You are not meant for crawling, so don't.
You have wings.
Learn to use them and fly."
~ Rumi ~



"I wish I could show you,
When you are lonely or in the darkness,
The Astonishing Light
Of your own Being!"
~ Hafiz ~
