“What is the difference between a man of God-consciousness and an individual man? Men of God-consciousness are three people at the same time. Men of self-consciousness are also three people at the same time. The man of God-consciousness has God, his guru, and himself. The man of self-consciousness has himself, his ego, and his desire. It is a question of being limited and unlimited.” Yogi Bhajan

grows from a tiny sprout.
The journey of a thousand miles
starts from beneath your feet.

Today: “Most of us do not know what God is and sometimes for fun’s sake we do not believe in God.” Yogi Bhajan
“Most of us do not know what God is and sometimes for fun’s sake we do not believe in God. God does not send a letter to you saying, “Please recognize me.” Never. None of you has received a Christmas card from Him. God doesn’t exist because of you at all, you exist because of Him, or It. A human being is a creature, a puppet hung on the string of breath. And you do not have control of your own breath. When you do not breathe, you do not breathe. Nothing on this planet is known to you which can make you breathe; nothing; understand that fundamentally.” Yogi Bhajan

thus never needing to be defensive.
