Essence of Breema

Why don’t we try to give love and compassion to the recipient? Because when we try to give, we only give concepts that are in our mind. Love and compassion are qualities of Existence, and are given, not by an imaginary, separate “you,” but by being.

There is a tradition that says that everyone and everything that comes in contact with you, or to your field of attention, has come for one purpose only—to ask you to wish for their well-being, to ask you to have well-wishing for them. This is not so easy, but with practice it is possible. If we...

If you want your life to be more meaningful, don’t complicate it. Try to understand that all your possibilities exist in this very  moment. So be in charge of this moment. Whatever you wish to do for your life, do it in this moment. That’s wisdom.

Existence is always present, and you know that. You don’t need to check. A thousand times you’ve looked at the sky and seen the sun. When you’re not looking at the sky, you still know the sun exists.

The wise way is to see you already have what you truly wish. Come to yourself, by tasting that you exist, and...

Acceptance makes you free from what you think you should be. You are what you are in any given moment. When you exist—when you are as you really are—only then can you see things as they are. 

No matter what the situation, there is something you can give, something you can do to help. You can have well-wishing. In real giving, you find out that you are giving to yourself. To really give and really receive, you need to be present. If you’re present when you give, you’re giving to the...

“What’s the source of that?” You could ask this question about anything you choose to look at. And you can apply this question to yourself. Your eyes are like a camera. You can never say who is looking through them. But you can say it’s something that exists. When you clearly see this is so, only...
