You have your own glasses with your own colors and prescriptions, and you perceive the world through those glasses. ~Muktananda Ultimately it’s not what happens “out there” that upsets you, it is what happens in your mind. ~Eckhart Tolle I cannot know you if I hold on to the image I have of you. ~Sivananda Radha If you see the soul in every living being, you see truly. ~Bhagavad Gita Everyone takes the limits of his own vision for the limits of the world. ~Arthur Schopenhauer We read the world wrong and say that it deceives us. ~Rabindranath Tagore All we view around us is a mirror of what we store inside. ~Chris Griscom The secret of seeing things as they are is to take off our colored spectacles.
