The pain of the world will sear and break our hearts because we can no longer keep them closed. We've seen too much now. To some degree or other, we have surrendered into service and are willing to pay the price of compassion. But with it comes the joy of a single, caring act. With it comes the honor of participating in a generous process in which one rises each day and does what one can. With it comes the simple, singular grace of being an instrument of Love, in whatever form, to whatever end.
Ram DassIf you keep examining your mind, you'll come to see that thoughts of who you are and how it all is are creating the reality you're experiencing.
Ram DassThis is the pathless path. Where the journey leads is to the deepest truth in you. It is really just returning to where you were initially before you got lost.
