Radiant Quotes "I trust so much in the power of the heart and the soul; I know that the answer to what we need to do next is in our own hearts. All we have to do is listen, then take that one step further and trust what we hear. We will be taught what we need to learn."

The Radiance Stillness
In this world of form we are anything but still. Rather we are deeply restless. In the journey into peace one is bound to meet with those disparate parts of oneself that are anything but peaceful. Sometimes these aspects of ourselves are very much at odds with who we think we are.
This can be most disconcerting for those of us who might be thinking that finally we are getting somewhere. Then all of a sudden, metaphorically speaking, all hell breaks loose. This happens. Do not be discouraged.
Off late this has happened to myself. Off late I have been experiencing extreme irritability. I shout at the animals, I am less than sympathetic to my partner, I am less forgiving, less loving and none of this particularly makes much sense. In my dreams it is the same.

The Radiance of Courage A warrior is not a fundamentalist. They are more interested in fun and are not mentally rigid in their thinking. They flow into the world and play. They are childlike and when they need to be fierce they are fierce. A warrior creates peace but it is a peace without attachment. Neither does a warrior resist evil. This is one of the highest teachings that the warrior understands. I love the following quote from Osho. 'A man of peace is not a pacifist; a man of peace is simply a pool of silence. He pulsates a new kind of energy into the world, he sings a new song. He lives in a totally new way his very way of live is that of grace, that of prayer, that of compassion. Whomsoever he touches, he creates more love-energy. The man of peace is creative. He is not against war, because to be against anything is to be at war. He is not against war; he simply understands why war exists. And out of that understanding he becomes peaceful. Only when there are many people who are pools of peace, silence, understanding, will the war disappear.'
