True and lasting inner peace can never be found in external things. It can only be found within in. And then, once we find and nurture it with ourselves, it radiates outward.
Gautama BuddhaFew among men are they who cross to the further shore. The others merely run up and down the bank on this side.
Gautama BuddhaAs the fletcher whittles and makes straight his arrows, so the master directs his straying thoughts.
Gautama BuddhaNirvana is this moment seen directly. There is no where else than here. The only gate is now. The only doorway is your own body and mind. Thereโs nowhere to go. Thereโs nothing else to be. Thereโs no destination. Itโs not something to aim for in the afterlife. Itโs simply the quality of this moment.
