My vibe is my tribe. I choose to be surrounded by those who respect and lift me high on this amazing journey of life and compassion. Just as the Chandogya Upanishad teaches, the subtle essence—the real self—resides in all beings. This means we share a sacred bond with every creature on Earth, no matter how big or small.
Look to the animal kingdom for powerful lessons about protection and love. The mother elephant fiercely defends her calves from danger, charging any threat with unwavering courage. Birds tirelessly build nests and keep them safe, sometimes sacrificing their own comfort to shelter their chicks from storms. Even tiny ants work collectively to guard their colony, showing us strength in unity. These living examples remind us how natural it is to protect our own and to stand strong for those we care about.
I live with passion and love, shining bright without burning out—like the eternal flame symbolized in the Mandukya Upanishad. We have the power to decide who stays in our lives and who we release, just as the Katha Upanishad reveals—the energy within us flows and moves, and we choose its path. Filled with divine love, free from fear, we rise to higher vibrations, as the Swetashwatara Upanishad inspires.
The Taittiriya Upanishad reminds us that pure consciousness guides those who walk their true path. When we deeply see ourselves in others and others in ourselves, as the Isavasya Upanishad expresses, hatred fades away, making room only for fierce love and radiant joy. Life’s energy, prana, flows in and out, shaping our space, as explained in the Prashna Upanishad. Like nature, we too can protect, love, and nurture.
If this way of living resonates with you, I invite you to join our philosophy circle, where we explore these timeless truths together.
