Peace be unto thee
stranger. Enter and be not afraid. I have left the gate open and
thou art welcome to my home. There is room in my house for all. I
have swept the hearth and lighted the fire. The room is warm and
cheerful and you will find comfort and rest within. The table is
laid and the fruits of life are spread before thee. The wine is
here also, it sparkles in the light. I have set a chair for you
where the sunbeams dance through the shade. Sit and rest and
refresh your soul. Eat of the fruit and drink the wine. All, all is
yours and you are welcome.
Meditate, live purely. Be quiet. Do your work with mastery.
Like the Moon, come out from behind the clouds; SHINE. Buddha, The
Enlightened One.
"Enlightenment is
the quiet acceptance of what is."
"Teachers open the door, but you must enter by yourself."
Chinese Proverb
"Tell me and I`ll
forget. Show me and I may remember. Involve me and I`ll
understand." Chinese Proverb
"Faith is to believe what we do not see; and the reward of
Faith is to see what we believe."
"The more you try to
force something for your ownbenefit, the less you will enjoy what
you are seeking so desperately."
"Stop focusing on what you do not have and shift your
consciousness to an appreciation forall that you do have."
" As it is written, I have made thee a father of many
nations,before him whom he believed, even of God, who quickeneth
the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they
were." Romans 4:17
"What you think
about expands. If your thoughts are centered on "What`s missing?",
then"What`s missing?", by definition, will have to
expand."
"You create your thoughts, your thoughts create your
intentions, and your intentions create your reality."
"Some people think
they are their packaging. Your body is nothing more than your
garage where you temporarily park your soul."
To live content with
small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury; and refinement
rather that fashion; to be worthy, not respectable; and wealthy,
not rich; to study hard; think quietly, talk gently, act frankly;
to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart;
to bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasson, hurry
never, in a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious
grow up through the common. This is to be my symphony. William
Henry Channing.
"I will not die an unlived life. I will not live in fear of
falling or catching fire. I choose to inhabit my days, to allow my
living to open me, to make me less afraid, more accessible, to
loosen my heart until it becomes a wing, a torch,a promise. I
choose to risk my significance; to live so that which comes to me
as seed goes to the next as blossom and that which comes to me as
blossom goes on as fruit.
"If you meet someone
whose soul is not aligned with yours, send them love and move
along."
"The world is the classroom, use it as such. Observe how
anxiety and confusion dominate the people you know. Then notice how
unhappiness and pretense go together. Then see even deeper. See
that unhappy people live in pretense because they don`t know what
else to do. They actually believe that pretense is essential to
their survival."
