To be filled with inpirational quotes about the Art of 'Practicing'
The soul grows by its
constant participation in
that which transcends it
-Gregory of Nyssa
A way can be a guide,
but not a fixed path;
Names can be given,
but not permanent labels
-Tao Te
The Sunrise Ruby
In the early morning hour,
just before dawn, lover and beloved wake
and take a drink of water.
She asks, "Do you love me or yourself more?
Really, tell me the absolute truth."
He says, "There is nothing left of me.
I'm like a ruby held up to the sunrise.
Is it still a stone, or a world
made of redness? It has no resistance
to sunlight."
This is how Hallaj said, I am God,
and told the truth!
The ruby and the sunrise are one.
Be courageous and discipline yourself.
Completely become hearing and ear,
and wear this sun-ruby as an earring.
Work, Keep digging your well.
Don't think about getting off from work.
Water is there somewhere.
Submit to a daily practice.
Your loyalty to that
is a ring on the door.
Keep knocking, and the joy inside
will eventually open a window
and look out to see who's there.
-Rumi
However innumerable sentient beings are, I vow to save them.
However inexhastible the defilements are, i vow to extinguish them.
However immesurable the dharmas are, I vow to master them.
However incomparable enlightenment is, i vow to attain it.
-Bodhistattva Vows
Everything is laid out for you.
Your path is straight ahead of you.
Sometimes it's invisible, but it's there.
You may not know where it's going
But you have to follow the path.
It's the path of the Creator.
It's the only path there is.
-Chief Leon Shenandoah
