courage

Now the time comes when great courage—moral and physical courage—is required of the Shambhala warriors, for they must go into the very heart of the barbarian power, into the pits and pockets and citadels where the weapons are kept, to dismantle them.

So in this time, the Shambhala warriors go into training. They train in the use of two weapons: compassion and insight. Both are necessary. One is the recognition and experience of our pain for the world. The other is the recognition and experience of our radical, empowering interconnectedness with all life.

There comes a time when all life on Earth is in danger.

Great barbarian powers have arisen. Although these powers spend their wealth in preparations to annihilate one another, they have much in common: weapons of unfathomable destructive power, and technologies that lay waste our world.

In this era, when the future of sentient life hangs by the frailest of threads, the kingdom of Shambhala emerges. You cannot go there, for it is not a place; it is not a geopolitical entity. It exists in the hearts and minds of the Shambhala warriors.

Be not afraid of life. Believe that life is worth living and your belief will help create the fact.”

INTEGRATE the opposite

“In Jungian theory, it is ONLY those who are able to INTEGRATE the opposite-sex psychology into their own self-identity, who can then proceed into the higher (Self and God-Self) phases of self-development; all the rest of the ‘gender-polarized’ populace are left behind to marry, divorce and remarry their own potential indefinitely until they finally learn that what they are looking for is essentially WITHIN THEMSELVES.”

maybe there really are no coincidences.



(repost because fuck fox news)

“Past attitudes toward sexuality have always tended to swing between two extremes.

Sexuality was either condemned as ‘the demon lust,’ a dangerous urge which threatened the order and salvation of one’s soul, or it was placed on a pedestal and elevated into something extraordinarily holy and sacrosanct. In both cases, the effect was the same: sexuality was consider inviolable, either because it defiled us or else because we impure humans beings might risk spoiling this heavenly gift.”
