Yung Pueblo Quotes

    “An attachment to control essentially comes from having a bad relationship with change.”

    Yung Pueblo

      “Often the hurt that weighs you down functions as a wall that stops you from fully engaging with the present moment. Unprocessed hurt also limits the flow of compassion because too much of our energy is focused on surviving one day at a time – this directly hinders the ability to deepen interpersonal connections.”

      Yung Pueblo

        “Being attached to perfection is not only a refusal to accept the ups and downs of reality, but also a manifestation of the craving to control. Life is not a straight and unbreakable line, it is choppy, unpredictable, and is more similar to waves and the movement of tides.

        Yung Pueblo

          “Yes, love is about giving, but self-love is about doing what you need to do to enhance your own inner light and knowing your own limits. Treating yourself well is critical if you want to build harmony with another human being. The interaction between love and self-love should help form a balance where both people can aspire to be selfless but at the same time are clear on what they need so that their personal happiness can be supported.”

          Yung Pueblo

            “they both know that they are not together to complete each other, that their happiness is their own to create. nevertheless, their ethereal bond serves a great purpose; it gives them the time and space to love each other well enough to release the tension of their unloved hearts. their love for one another is not the end but rather a means to an end. it is a humble tool of healing and nourishment that can strengthen their minds and make their spirits mighty, so that they may both travel as far within themselves as possible, so that they may both release all that limits the flow of their happiness, so that they may both swim freely in the waters of wisdom and universal understanding.”

            Yung Pueblo, Inward (Page 207)

              “just because someone was wrong once, it doesn’t mean they are going to be wrong forever. similarly, just because we may perceive someone as wrong, it does not necessarily mean that we are right. in most cases we lack the perfect information required to form an objective and universal perspective. it is important to remember that we are all imperfect and that we all live through the limited perspective of ego. striving to learn as much as we can from one another without making harsh and permanent judgments is a sign of wisdom.”

              Yung Pueblo, Inward (Page 183)

                “everyone is a teacher, but that does not mean everyone is correct.”

                Yung Pueblo, Inward (Page 183)

                  “loneliness

                  will not

                  go away

                  if we remain

                  far away

                  from ourselves”

                  Yung Pueblo, Inward (Page 180)

                    “if you want to know

                    how free you are,

                    ask yourself,

                    ‘how far does

                    my love extend?'”

                    Yung Pueblo, Inward (Page 177)

                      “how to improve your life:

                      1. make self-love a top priority

                      2. learn a self-healing technique

                      3. create space for daily healing

                      4. know that everything changes

                      5. be kind, loving, and honest to all”

                      Yung Pueblo, Inward (Page 172)

                        “peace makes you strong

                        hate reveals your emptiness

                        kindness feeds your happiness

                        anger reveals your fear

                        love makes you free”

                        Yung Pueblo, Inward (Page 167)

                          “wanting always interrupts being.”

                          Yung Pueblo, Inward (Page 166)

                            love is not:
                            
                            i will give this to you
                            if you do this for me
                            
                            love is:
                            
                            i will give this to you
                            so that you may shine
                            
                            ~ Yung Pueblo, Inward (Page 161)

                              “to expect another to resolve all of our issues and give us the happiness we desire is to expect to see the sunrise without opening our own eyes. it is to ask a river to give us nourishment without dipping our own hands into the water. another cannot answer a riddle that was only ever meant for our own minds to solve. the universe seeks to enlighten and empower us, thus it is only rational that we are our own greatest healers.”

                              Yung Pueblo, Inward (Page 159)

                                “true self-love is when one understands that the inward journey is the path to freedom, that observing and releasing our inner burdens is what will make us feel lighter and more aware. self-love does not grow the ego; it does the opposite. it is our ego that carries the craving that causes our suffering—the incessant craving that rests at the center of the ego is the ultimate block that stops us from achieving freedom.”
