Maya Angelou said in her book, Wouldn't Take Nothing From My Journey Now; "When we cast our bread upon the waters, we can presume that someone downstream whose face we will never know will benefit from our action, as we who are downstream from another will profit from the grantor's gift." |
"Human beings are not aware that the life they are chasing brings them the incessant return of suffering, pain, disappointment, loss, age, and death. Knowledgeable persons no longer "attach" their desire to pleasures but constantly strive to do what is right. Neither "what" they live nor even the fact "that (they live)" is essential anymore but rather the "how" of life. The liberation from suffering in all of its forms, nirvana, results on its own through this change in the direction of the will." The Dali Lama, Politics and Religion, p. 168 |

By The Prophet, Kahlil Gibran~excerpt: ..."Love threshes you to make you naked. He sifts you to free you from your husks. He grinds you to whiteness. He kneads you until you are pliant; And then he assigns you to his sacred fire, that you may become sacred bread for God's sacred feast. All these things shall love do unto you that you may know the secrets of your heart, and in that knowledge become a fragment of Life's heart...... " |
