WE ARE EXPLORING THE PRACTICE
OF HOLINESS
+ Appreciating and expressing the Real You is a vital
dimension of the practice of Holiness. Here are a few quotes from the S&P
practice of You:
+ If you do not
express your own original ideas, if you do not listen to your own being, you
will have betrayed yourself.
— Rollo May quoted in The
Soul of Creativity edited by Tona Pearce Myers
+ A thoroughly good
relationship with ourselves results in being still, which doesn't mean we don't
run and jump and dance about. It means there's no compulsiveness. We don't
overwork, overeat, oversmoke, overseduce. In short, we begin to stop causing
harm.
— Pema Chödrön in When
Things Fall Apart
+ A great deal of
chaos in the world occurs because people don't appreciate themselves. Having
never developed sympathy or gentleness toward themselves, they cannot
experience harmony or peace within themselves, and therefore, what they project
to others is also inharmonious and confused.
— Chogyam Trungpa quoted in The Essential Chogyam Trungpa edited by Carolyn Rose Gimian
+ Remember: You are intimately, intricately, infinitely
connected by a matrix of unconditional, unlimited uniting Love which is
miraculous, mysterious and marvelous. If
you don’t appreciate and express your Real Self, the divine connection is not
as complete as it can be. So, enjoy
being You right now, right here. And:
Breathe deeply. Breathe fully. Be still.
Be silent. Be centered. Be grounded.
Lighten up. Loosen up. Let go. Let God. Celebrate. Be glad all over.
You are holy. Yes,
you.
