Self

When the mind merges with Self,
the ultimate value of the body
to serve you is discovered.
Only Self is real.

Primary Essence

You are primary essence.
Why are you ignorant of your noble birth?
You carry God about within you,
poor wretch, you know nothing about it.

One candle can light many more,

Bad Feelings

Don’t spend your life running from bad feelings,
thinking you can’t stand the pain.
You’ve already borne the pain.
What you have not done is feel
all that you are beyond that pain.
Kalil Gibran (paraphrased)

Be Like a Tree

Praise and blame, gain and loss,
pleasure and sorrow
come and go like the wind.
To be happy, rest like a giant tree
in the midst of them all.
The Buddha

Judgment

“Don’t judge each day
by the harvest you reap,
but by the seeds that you plant.”
