Be the Buddha

Don't quote the Buddha,
be the Buddha.

Eckhart Tolle

Into What Society?

The first universal, existential reality
is that of the mystery of birth.
That's more than a biological phenomenon,
believe me - the mystery of a new being coming in.
And the next - every culture, everywhere, forever,
has had to bring that little natural phenomenon
into relationship with a society.
That's where the problem comes:
into what society are you going to bring
this natural phenomenon?

Joseph Campbell

That's Life

Imagine reading a book with
no way to turn back the page.
How carefully would you read it?
That's life.

Allow the Universe to Lead You

The best way to succeed is to discover what you love
and then find a way to offer it to others in the form
of service, working hard, and also allowing the energy
of the universe to lead you.

Oprah Winfrey

Nothing to Hold On To

If you realize that all things change,
there is nothing you will try to hold on to.

Lao Tzu

Understand More

Nothing in life is to be feared;
it is only to be understood.
Now is the time to understand more,
so that we may fear less.

Marie Curie

Love This World

Look, I want to love this world as though
it's the last chance I'm every going to get
to be alive and know it.

Mary Oliver
