Viktor E. Frankl

I have finally gotten a copy of ‘Man’s Search for Meaning’, as an ‘audio book’, and finished reading it today. I will be reading it again and again, as it’s so good.

man's seach for meaning

“If there is meaning in life at all, then there must be meaning in suffering.”
― Viktor Frankl

“The one thing you can’t take away from me is the way I choose to respond to what you do to me. The last of one’s freedoms is to choose one’s attitude in any given circumstance.”
― Viktor E. Frankl

He says: Instead of constantly trying to avoid suffering, one is to embrace it. This takes away it’s power over us.
He says this about all our neurotic behaviour. Go towards it, and it will dissipate.
This make a lot of sense. I need to be brave, to do this.
His story and his book, are a huge inspiration for me.

Water, what is that ?

This is what a fish would say if it had a human mind.

– Eckhart Tolle.

This is my ‘all time’ favorite Eckhart quote. It’s used to describe ‘being-ness’. If you don’t ‘get it’… sorry…even trying to explain it, I’ve found some people still don’t understand it.

The thing I like so much about quotes, is, they cut through the mind’s noise, and get us to the truth.

Eckhart Tolle is one of three, of my ‘spiritual’ teachers.

the other two are: ACIM & David Hawkins.

Quote

Achievement of your happiness is the only moral purpose of your life,

and that happiness, not pain or mindless self-indulgence, is the proof of your moral integrity,

since it is the proof and the result of your loyalty to the achievement of your values.

– Ayn Rand
