From birth to death you go on living, groping in darkness with no light – and you could have created the light. You cannot find it in the scriptures; nobody can hand it to you. It is not purchased or sold; it is nontransferable. But you can create it – you can put all your energies together. You can start living consciously from this very moment.
Rajneesh
The most basic activism
The most basic activism we can have in our lives is to live consciously in a nation living in fantasies. Living consciously is living with a core of healthy self-esteem. You will face reality, you will not delude yourself. Bell Hooks
