It is necessary to help others, not only in our prayers, but in our daily lives. If we find we cannot help others, the least we can do is to desist from harming them. ~ Dalai Lama



"But, with all your studies, remember this: One minute of experiencing the free flow of life for yourself is worth a thousand hours with books and lectures. You don't want to read the menu; you want to taste the dinner. Knowledge is needed, yes, but let it be the gateway to spaciousness."

Single-winged seeds of the dandelion plant are blown away by the wind to unknown destinations, not by choice. Life is like that.

Do not judge aimless wandering for there is little control over what the universe brings and all journeys provide expansion. Like the dandelion seed, we can but go where life takes us. Life is part of the same energy that dances with the dandelion.

 "Life is the dancer and you are the dance." ~ Eckhart Tolle
