   And THAT you have the power to change in any instant."


  ~ Marcus Aurelius, Meditations






  "God -- we read -- is outside of none,
   present unperceived to all;
   we break away from Him, or rather from ourselves;
   what we turn from we cannot reach;
   astray ourselves, we cannot go in search of another;
   a child distraught will not recognise its father;
   to find ourselves is to know our source."

   ~ Plotinus, Enneads 9:7






  "I'm love, I'm truth, I'm love divine;
   This body-mind is a dream of mine".

  and hold it to attention there."

  ~ Plotinus

  of their actions while awake as they are
  of what they do while asleep."

  ~ Heraclitus of Ephesus






 "Attachment is the very opposite of love.
  Love says, "I want you to be happy."
  Attachment says, "I want you to make me happy."

  ~ Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo






  "It is not that the Supreme reaches
   out to us seeking our communion:
   we reach towards the Supreme;
   it is we that become present."

   ~ Plotinus








  "There are only two mistakes
   one can make along the road
   to truth;

   not going all the way,
   and not starting.


   ~ Buddha
