You have to be unapologetic in the way that you exist here….

Life is meant to be lived. You have to chase the things that ignite you. You have to do the things that bring you joy.

You have to surround yourself with the people who bring you back home to yourself, with the people who respect you and embrace you in ways that make you feel like you are worthy and accepted and loved.

You have to do the work to heal yourself, even when it hurts — especially when it hurts, so that you do not continue to approach your life within the boundary of what is heavy within you.

You have to put yourself out there, and you cannot worry about what other people think, you cannot rob yourself of experience or happiness or inspiration because you are scared of how you will be perceived.

You have to be unapologetic in the way that you exist here. You have to believe that your ideas, and your hope, and your being, deserve to take up space.

You have to believe that you have purpose.

Your long search for a simple book on meditation ends here!

I am inspired to write this because this book is a gem and shouldn’t go unnoticed by any sincere seeker. I really loved the simplicity of this book in explaining an esoteric subject as meditation. Every concept of the heartfulness meditation practice, its tips and tricks are spread out in simple terms before the reader by this loving guide without any secrets being held back as was the tradition in ancient Guru-disciple relationship.
I have been meditating for a few years now and I should say that I learned a lot of minute details from this book which I was not aware of but which could improve my practice manifold. The examples given here are also very practical that we can easily relate to and hence flows seamlessly from start to end.
Overall, a must read for anyone contemplating meditation, a good starting point for beginners and also a great tool to move ahead for pros. Thank you for this wonderful book!

We are all “heroes in training”

Heroism is rather a mind-set or an accumulation of our personal and social habits. It is a way of being. And it is a special way of viewing ourselves. To be a hero requires taking effective action at crucial junctures in our lives, to make an active attempt to address injustice or create positive change in the world. To be a hero requires great moral courage. And each of us has an inner hero waiting to be expressed. We are all “heroes in training.” Our hero training is life, the daily circumstances that invite us to practice the habits of heroism: to commit daily deeds of kindness; to radiate compassion, starting with self-compassion; to bring out the best in others and ourselves; to sustain love, even in our most challenging relationships; to celebrate and exercise the power of our mental freedom.

“Isn’t it amazing?” she said. “The worst brings out the best in us.”
