Alertness Quotes

• El juicio sólo puede adquirirse mediante la observación aguda, la experiencia real en la escuela de la vida, la vigilancia incesante para aprender de los demás, el estudio de las actividades de los hombres que han dejado huellas notables, el esfuerzo por analizar el juego cotidiano de causas y efectos, el estudio constante de la naturaleza humana.

• Mis pasiones están todas dormidas por haberme adormecido hasta casi las once y haber debilitado la fibra animal en todo mi cuerpo hasta una deliciosa sensación de unos tres grados en esta vista de desfallecimiento - si tuviera dientes de perla y aliento de lirios lo llamaría languidez - pero como lo soy debo llamarlo pereza. En este estado de afeminamiento las fibras del cerebro se relajan al igual que las del resto del cuerpo, y hasta un grado tan feliz que el placer no muestra ningún atractivo y el dolor ningún ceño insoportable. Ni la poesía, ni la ambición, ni el amor tienen ningún semblante alerta cuando pasan a mi lado.

  John Keats

• Jesucristo no nos enseña una espiritualidad "de ojos cerrados", sino una espiritualidad "alerta", que conlleva el deber absoluto de prestar atención a las necesidades de los demás y a las situaciones que afectan a quienes el Evangelio nos dice que son nuestros prójimos. La mirada de Jesús, lo que "sus ojos" nos enseñan, lleva a la cercanía humana, a la solidaridad, a dar tiempo, a compartir nuestros dones e incluso nuestros bienes materiales.

• Al menos una vez cada ser humano debería tener que correr para salvar su vida, para enseñarle que la leche no viene de los supermercados, que la seguridad no viene de los policías, que las "noticias" no son algo que les ocurre a otras personas. Podría aprender cómo vivían sus antepasados y que él mismo no es diferente: en el fondo, su vida depende de su agilidad, su estado de alerta y su ingenio personal.

• When your attention moves into the Now, there is an alertness. It is as if you were waking up from a dream, the dream of thought, the dream of past and future. Such clarity, such simplicity. No room for problem-making. Just this moment as it is.

• When you become comfortable with uncertainty, infinite possibilities open up in your life. It means fear is no longer a dominant factor in what you do and no longer prevents you from taking action to initiate change. The Roman philosopher Tacitus rightly observed that 'the desire for safety stands against every great and noble enterprise.' If uncertainty is unacceptable to you, it turns into fear. If it is perfectly acceptable, it turns into aliveness, alertness and creativity.

  Eckhart Tolle
