Saddhasura's Final Push will remind you that you are not a human being on a spiritual journey, you’re a spiritual being on a human journey.   Quotes: “The things I’ve missed out on are the things I haven’t kept my eye on.” “The human being is inconsistent by its very nature.  Everything about us is constantly changing.” “I’ve got a choice.  I can either crumble and let this all really get the better of me or I can just see it as a really great opportunity.” “Here and now is not bad.  The past is just a string of proteins that are lined up in my brain.  The future is a possibility based in fantasy and projection.  Neither one of those alternatives are a useful place to plan anything.” “In the manure of this experience, a rose can grow.”   Connect with Saddhasura: Website / Facebook / Instagram / Twitter
