“So those traditions which are against sex will be against the body. Those traditions which are not against sex can only be friendly toward the body. Tantra is absolutely friendly, and Tantra says that the body is sacred, holy. For Tantra, to condemn the body is a sacrilege. To say that the body is impure or to say that the body is sin is nonsense for Tantra – a very poisonous teaching. Tantra accepts the body – not only accepts it, but says that the body is holy, pure, innocent. You can use it and you can make it a vehicle, a medium, to go beyond! It helps even in going beyond. But if you start fighting with body, you are lost. If you start fighting with it, you will become more and more diseased. And if you go on fighting with it, you will miss an opportunity. Fighting is negative; Tantra is a positive transformation. Do not fight with it – there is no need.”
—Osho, The Book of Secrets (via nirvikalpa)
No More Carbs
I tasted far, far, far too many pastries today — I cannot eat another bite of sugary, flour-y anything. Good lord.
Did you open your own business?!
I am the front of the house manager of a restaurant and specialty coffee shop. We are about two weeks in now and I am just beginning to get my life back. It’s been all 11-15 hour days for that time, but it will hopefully lessen in the coming weeks.
Thanks to anyone who is still around and at all paying attention!
WE DID IT
The restaurant-cafe which has completely absorbed my life for the last few months has passed health inspection and we open tomorrow. If you live in Philly, please come visit us for delicious coffee drinks!
