About Me:

I am a recovered drug addict. I enjoy meditation and prayer, although i am still confused about religion and spiritually. My main goal in this community is to spread the real message of AA, and not the watered down treatment center methodology of the 12 steps
also i hope to become more enlightened in the spiritual sense and share my knowledge of the spiritual, mental, emotional, and material realms. Recently i've become more and more interested in integral philosophy and hope to learn even more about it.


Quotes :

“Let a man set his heart only on doing the will of God and he is instantly free. If we understand our first and sole duty to consist of loving God supremely and loving everyone, even our enemies, for God's dear sake, then we can enjoy spiritual tranquility under every circumstance.” 
                                                         -A. W. Tozer

“Six is a number perfect in itself, and not because God created the world in six days; rather the contrary is true. God created the world in six days because this number is perfect, and it would remain perfect, even if the work of the six days did not exist. ”
                                                        
                                                          -Saint Augustine of Hippo

“Imagine all the people living life in peace. You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one. I hope someday you'll join us, and the world will be as one.” 

                                                          - John Lennon


“Jesus was all right, but his disciples were thick and ordinary. It's them twisting it that ruins it for me. ”

                                                          - John Lennon

“I believe in God, but not as one thing, not as an old man in the sky. I believe that what people call God is something in all of us. I believe that what Jesus and Mohammed and Buddha and all the rest said was right. It's just that the translations have gone wrong. ”

                                                        - John Lennon

“Few of us have lost our minds, but most of us have long ago lost our bodies.”

                                                        - Ken Wilbur

” Always aim at complete harmony of thought and word and deed. Always aim at purifying your thoughts and everything will be well. ”

                                                        - Mahatma Gandhi

“Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.”

                                                        - Mahatma Gandhi

“I cannot teach you violence, as I do not myself believe in it. I can only teach you not to bow your heads before any one even at the cost of your life. ”

                                                       - Mahatma Gandhi

” Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions. ”

                                       - His Holiness the Dalai Lama
