And as we know from the pilgrimage diaries of Swami Ramdas, it is when we renounce everything that everything is given to us, in abundance. Everything: meaning the intensity of presence itself.

About This Quote

This quote from Swami Ramdas is a beautiful reminder that the more we give up, the more we receive. The more we give up on a materialistic life, a life of competition, a life of betrayal and anger, the more we receive in its place. A life where there is no fear of being alone. A life where there is no fear of being forgotten or left behind. A life that is simply lived at its fullest potential with no fear or attachment to anything.
