Sacredness comes from developing gentleness towards ourselves.
Then the Irritation of being with oneself is taken away.
When that kind of friendliness occurs then one also develops friendliness towards the rest of the World.
At that point, sadness, loneliness and wretchedness begin to dissipate.
We develop a sense of humor. We don't get so pissed of if we have a bad cup of coffee in the morning.
Appreciating our human dignity comes from that and then the moon in your heart becomes natural and obvious, and the sun in your head is also obvious and natural.
