Alexis Karpouzos
“I come from the depths of infinity

and from all directions of space-time.

I traveled through dark tunnels, went through solar storms.

I went straight, circled, parallel, rotated as a spiral.

Cosmic clouds trapped me and escaped from them.

Avoided collisions with meteories.

I was helped by exotic particles,

neutron stars and the love of gravity.

Every leaf, every flower, every mountain and lake,

every cloud and every star and every atom recognize me and greet me.

I feel that i have live for million lifetimes.

Who am i? What is my purpose?

Last night i sent a question into universe, asking ”who am i or am i not?

The universe responded immediately:

”You asked me the same thing billions of years ago.

And then and now i answer:

You’re the smile of no birth and no death,

The Hidden Law!”

“Solitude makes me feel calm. The rain affects me differently. Books never make me feel lonely. I love hugging trees, and sleeping on grass. Can't help being addicted to coffee and writing.
What about you?”

“Writing had become a constant partner. She had become my muse. The moments of my madness made me crave her. She was the reason that I never felt alone. She never let me feel lonely. She enticed me in my days. She allured me in my nights. She bewitched me in myriad unknown ways!”

Alexis Karpouzos
“You can only find out
what you are from what you are not
which is everything and nothing.
Your home is everywhere and nowhere.
Your true identity is no identity.
You aren't an owner but
a messenger of the infinity,
The no-thing is open to everything,
timeless and Free.”
alexis karpouzos, AN OCEAN OF SOULS: Beyond the heaven

Alexis Karpouzos
“The invitation for each of us is to dive into the mystery of our questions and our wondering, and come out of the trance of certainty, the idea that we’re supposed to “know” what to do with this life or have some absolute conclusion or resolution about the many paradoxes and contradictions of our existence. Invite you to soften into your doubts, celebrate your uncertainty, and come to see the beauty - and ultimate safety - in Not Knowing. We know not where the journey leads, nor whether a final destination is even a meaningful concept. The attraction is the inherent thrill of participating in a grand creative endeavor for which participation is its own reward.”
alexis karpouzos, NON - DUALITY: THE PARTICIPATORY UNIVERSE

Alexis Karpouzos
“He told me a tale of woefulness, one upon a time the heaven woke up and the silence spoke, then came the separation, the agony began, the fear and questions came, and I wept, tears I had never known before. since then the days are falling and abandoned, we walk facing the sun but the shadow is behind us and follow us.”

1. Keep going.
2. Keep giving.
3. Remain true.
4. Trust your instincts.
5. Go with the flow.
6. Do your best.
7. Enjoy it.”

“Trampled upon by an unruly hoard of life-altering tribulations, we subliminally search for a path leading to spiritual salvation. A scrupulous chart demarking the deliverance of one person onto the road of recovery hews a lifeline of inspiration for other people to grasp.”

“Dear Poet/ Writer,

Hope you are finding time to reflect, ponder, and observe life. Each leaf, each stone, each flower, and each tree has a story to tell us.


You must understand the language of the leaves, and the flowers. You must allow yourself to feel the music of nature. The breeze serenades us. The waves bring their own music.

Do not worry about getting rejections from magazines, newspapers, and publishers. A writer's work is to go on writing. And a writer must keep on writing. The rejection letters become good souvenirs for our stories.

Regards,
Avijeet”

“I meet people and they become chapters in my stories.”
Avijeet Das, Why the Silhouette?

Donna Goddard
“I do not think writing is a rational or deliberate process. I never decide who is in my stories. That would be like deciding who we are going to have a relationship with. With seven billion people in the world, would it not be wise to let Life decide who of those people belong with us? With an infinite number of ideas swirling around, would it not be wise to let Life decide which of those ideas belong with us? Stories write themselves, if we let them.”
Donna Goddard, Writing: A Spiritual Voice

Donna Goddard
“Writing fiction is a joint venture. The people we, directly or vaguely, base our characters on help us to write by adding their unique energy to the creation of a story. It is not just the energy that subtlely comes from recalling someone. Rather, it is the actual life force that radiates from that person. It is a powerful use of an individual’s life energy. It is co-creation.”
Donna Goddard, Writing: A Spiritual Voice

“Writing makes you relieve the moments. The happy ones and the sad ones too.”
