Today's inspirational quotes
The moral virtues, then, are produced in us neither by nature nor against nature. Nature, indeed, prepares in us the ground for their reception, but their complete formation is the product of habit.
Aristotle

If at any time I begin to lose hope in myself, let me simply look inside my heart and see all the good actions I have ever performed, from the smallest to the grandest. When I see how much happiness I have given, I easily remember the purpose of my life.

It’s been said that you cannot give away what you do not have.
One of the most spiritual important insights or secrets in life
is that you already have, and always have had, what you need to
give away! If you impart the message that ’I am not worthy’ the
universe will send it straight back in many shapes, forms and
circumstances. When we say ’give me’ we are imparting this
message. We are saying we think we need to get something to
complete ourselves or prove our worth. Most of us are taught
to live a life of gimmie gimmie gimmie – always striving,
desiring, wanting, struggling. We do so only because we think
that when we get what we want we will be fulfilled and esteemed
by others. But it’s an illusion. We are all already complete and
worthy but we cannot know it and experience it, until we give it
away! Only giving allows us to know what we are and what we have
within. Ask the question – how can I serve? The intention to serve
will point you towards what you need to give. If the intention is
real it also generates the will. The most successful people in life
are not go getters, but go givers!

Smiling is very important. If we are not able to smile, then the world will not have peace. It is not by going out for a demonstration against nuclear missiles that we can bring about peace. It is with our capacity of smiling, breathing, and being peace that we can make peace.

The perfectionist is bound to be a neurotic, he cannot enjoy life, until he is perfect. And perfection as such never happens, it is not in the nature of things. Totality is possible, perfection is not possible.

Deficiency motivation doesn't work. It will lead to a life-long pursuit of try to fix me. Learn to appreciate what you have and where and who you are.

If you have found your truth within yourself there is nothing more in this whole existence to find. Truth is functioning through you. When you open your eyes, it is truth opening his eyes. When you close your eyes, it is truth who is closing its eyes.
This is a tremendous meditation. If you can simply understand the device, you dont have to do anything; whatever you are doing is being done by truth. You are walking, it is truth; you are sleeping, it is truth resting; you are speaking, it is truth speaking; you are silent, it is truth that is silent.
This is one of the most simple meditation techniques. Slowly, slowly everything settles by this simple formula, and then there is no need for the technique. When you are cured, you throw away the meditation, you throw away the medicine. Then you live as truth - alive, radiant, contented, blissful, a song unto yourself. Your whole life becomes a prayer without any words, or better to say a prayerfulness, a grace, a beauty which does not belong to our mundane world, a ray of light coming from the beyond into the darkness of our world.
Osho
