Every breath - alexis karpouzos

Mountains fall and seas divide and impossible things may seem but where there’s despair there is and faith and where there’s sadness the consolation is near. Every breath is a chance to reborn, but to be reborn you have to die before dying.

The mystery - alexis karpouzos

I came into existence, naked yet clothed with innocence and unaware, bathed with my mother’s blood, old folks heard me cry and were so glad. I came not into this unknown sphere by my own will and I will not leave of my own will but i will drink the wine of the mystery and become drunk with anguish, fear and love. So short, so precious a life, a fragile life under threat.

Loneliness - alexis karpouzos

Loneliness, Emotional pain, walks with us through the day, and sleeps with us through the night, Tears that is not visible to the naked eye, silent screams that no one can hear, feeling of relentless distress, Trapped with nowhere to turn, life is changing beyond our control, someone else is pulling the strings, causing this deep ache in the bottom of our soul. but remember, for every soul there is a soul that touches yours – Be it the slightest contact – always there is a gleam of faith in the darkening sky; always there is a glimpse of brigther skies To brave the thickening ills of life; To make this life worthwhile.

Thought of the Day

There was once a young man who was searching for a master to teach him how to find God. He walked through the forest until one day he came across an old hermit’s cave. He told the hermit he wanted to become his disciple, and the hermit agreed to share his home. In reply to the young man’s questions, the hermit gave only short answers and very simple exercises to carry out. His disciple was not satisfied with this and pestered him with questions about finding God. Walking along the riverbank one hot day the master said, ‘Let’s stop for a drink’, and they lay down and drank from their cupped hands. Suddenly the master seized the disciple’s head and forced it into the water holding it under for a few seconds before letting go. Gasping for breath, the disciple looked...

The earth wonders — alexis karpouzos

The sky touches the face of the blue earth and whispers, ‘’I am so yours’’. The earth wonders, ‘’How could that be. You are boundless. You have so starries jewels in your treasure, stars, suns and moons, and i , I am little, I have no own light. And Beyond that, in the modern era, in the Barbaric greed of civilization, I feel, a thousand deaths on my body, no more flowers left to bloom, no more harvest to reap, tears have become irony, fades daylight’’. And the sky replies, ‘’I know, They came with iron chains, claws sharper than the wolves, came hordes of hunters with perverted eyes of contempt. But, even if your tears are restive your heart glistening in trampled darkness’’.

The children of world - alexis karpouzos

The tears of a child, the pain of a mother! A heart full of memories of a dead father! Here's so much sorrow, in every eye. Nothing but hurt left here, Nothing but bullets, pain, misery and shattered dreams ... Yet for the children of world only one equation counts: their shared humanity. We will gather together as brothers, We will gather together as brothers. and we will live in solidarity with others in this world, we are the thirsty souls of a world without divisions. If we merge mercy with might and might with right, then love becomes our legacy and change, our children's birth right. Let's step out of the shade, aflame and unafraid and don't trust any immortalist. The dove will find a resting place!!

Fewer Desires Lead to Greater Contentment

The fewer desires you have, the happier you will be. Having the right information (truth) leads to contentment. Having the right understanding of the self, our purpose, our origins and our true relationships should free us from the cycles of boom and bust and lead society to that ultimate happiness.

Inner Beauty

“Wow…that’s beautiful!” Is either a cry or a thought when faced with the mountain sunset, a spectacular view or a well formed man or woman. But where is the beauty, where is the appreciation of beauty, where is the ability to discern beauty? It is within our own consciousness. For the essence of who and what we are is beauty itself. The essence of beauty is not found in the body, a face or a mountain – they only stir the essence of beauty within our own spirit. And that beauty is not only something we taste within ourselves, but it emerges in our character as virtue, and in our life as care. For what is virtue, but love in action. The next time you say, “That’s beautiful!” know that you speak of yourself, and it is you who are beautiful. Always were, always will be.

Cosmic conversations - alexis karpouzos

We live in a universe that can be seen and experienced from many different perspectives. We therefore need to look at the universe from many different angles. Everything and everyone is a form of the universe being expressed in a particular way. In other words, each one of us can say with absolute certainly “We are the Universe!” Since we are the universe, each one of us provides a valuable perspective that complements the contributions of everyone and everything else around us.Each of us is the universe being expressed in a particular location in a specific way. We’re all part of the same moving and evolving cosmos, but the view of it is unique from each of our respective locations. This suggests that the universe is not only omnicentric, but that it is also multiperspectival...

Evolution of consciousness - alexis karpouzos

The challenge for humanity now is to transform and transcend our fractured views of the world, to shift paradigms, to return to a more wise and holistic understanding of ourselves and our place in the Universe. A change in thinking and behavior will result naturally from a change of heart. As Einstein put it, “Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.” Once enough of us open our minds and collaborate together, there’s a good chance we’ll find many of our problems can be solved quite easily. By aligning our species with the wisdom of Nature (and our own hearts), the health of our planet and communities could be restored. We just need to recognize our interdependence...

Dream of universe - alexis karpouzos

We belong to a dynamic-participatory unfolding universe that inspires wonder, awe, and creativity. We are an integral part of the universe. Our Universe exists as a unified field or whole. Creative energy swirling as atoms, giving rise to molecules, forming galaxies, stars, planets, mountains, rivers and the bodies of all living beings. If this is so, why do we not “see” the world this way, experience our lives for the miracle it is? Forests, lovers, galaxies, flowers, rivers, mountains, moons and countless living beings- our Universe moves and dances as each of us. Born of Earth, animated by solar winds , we are the children of evolution’s story, Nature’s emergence on the stage of cosmic history. Birds calling, hurricanes swirling, bees passing by, waves crashing on beaches,...

Ego and Suffering

Ego and suffering If the ego is the "I, myself " this feeling of existing as an independent individual, as necessary and even indispensable to our survival in this world, is this instance of our system so pregnant at every moment positive? What is its responsibility in our suffering and can we keep only the good side? The ego is manifested in our lives by three kinds of attitudes: - the attraction: I want what is good to me, pleasant - repulsion: I do not want what seems bad, unpleasant - indifference. A series of behaviors, strategies, struggles to live according to the laws of our ego follows. We will see how this struggle is in fact responsible for some of our suffering. Is the ego our enemy? For the Buddhists, the ego has no existence of...
