* Inspiration – Love and Wisdom

flow of life

“Sometimes I feel I am everything, I call that Love.
Sometimes I feel I am nothing, I call that Wisdom.
Between Love and Wisdom
my life continuously flows.”

~ Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

Such a beautiful way of looking at life in balance.

Let us all keep flowing between Love and Wisdom.

Namaste

  4. His I Am That is surely one of the magisterial works of spiritual literature. I’ve even bought copies to give away, it seems so important a text. ๐Ÿ™‚

  9. Nisargadatta Maharaj once said: (You probably have this already.) eve x

    โ€œWisdom tells me I am nothing. Love tells me I am everything. Between these two, my life flows.โ€ โ€˜I am nothingโ€™ does not mean there is a void or a wasteland within. What it means is that with constant awareness we open to a clear, unimpeded space, without centre or boundaries, there is nothing separate. Being nothing in this way, we are also, inevitably, everything there is. โ€œEverythingโ€ does not mean self- importance or the egotistical idea that self-aggrandisement is everything, but a decisive recognition of interconnection; we are not separate. Both the clear open space of โ€˜nothingโ€™ and the interconnectedness of โ€˜everything;โ€™ awakens us to our true nature.โ€

  10. Wonderful, nothing and everything what does it really make me think about? When I meditate and separate my mind and forget about my body I am nothing yet I feel alive and full of everything? Not sure if it makes sense but life goes on no matter.

โ— About Me

My name is Val Boyko, a dual citizen living near Philadelphia, originally from Scotland.

This blog came to life one morning in 2013.  I woke up with these words in my mind:  “Life is a series of highs and lows. Be grateful for the highs. Be graceful in the lows. And find contentment in your Middle Ground.”

Find Your Middle Ground blog started to explore, reflect, ask deep questions, share insights about awakening, and connect with wonderful people like yourself. Thank you for being here and being such an inspiration.
