The universe whispering
133 July 7, 2014
Within you rest's the universal answer to every question that you could ever ask yourself. It’s been said that prayer is talking to God….meditation is listening. Can you hear the universe whispering to you?~DavidJl

There are different kinds of love
421 July 7, 2014There are different kinds of love, and these are variously expressed as motherly love, brotherly love, sensual love, emotional love, sexual love, selfish love, selfless love, and universal love.
If people develop only their carnal or selfish love towards each other, that type of love cannot last long. In a true love relationship, one should not ask how much one can get, but how much one can give.
By Ven. Dr. K. Sri Dhammananda

Sensual pleasure
52 July 7, 2014
When one ceases to crave for sensual pleasure and does not seek to find physical comfort in the company of others, the need for marriage does not arise. Suffering and worldly enjoyment are both the outcome of craving, attachment and emotion. If we try to control and suppress our emotions by adopting unrealistic tactics we create disturbances in our mind and in our physical body. Therefore we must know how to handle and control our human passion. Without abusing or misusing this passion, we can tame our desires through proper understanding.By Ven. Dr. K. Sri Dhammananda

Making the Heart good
Comment July 7, 2014
In order to give up evil and cultivate the good you don’t have to
go looking anywhere else. If your mind has gone bad, don’t go looking
over at this person and that person. Just look at your own mind and find
out where these thoughts come from. Why does the mind think such
things? Understand that all things are transient. Love is transient,
hate is transient.~Ajahn Chah

Character cannot be developed…
Comment July 7, 2014Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet.
Only through experience of trial and suffering
can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired,
and success achieved.~Helen Keller

Make the world less difficult for each other
Comment July 7, 2014Wear a smile and have friends;
wear a scowl and have wrinkles.
What do we live for if not to make the world
less difficult for each other?~George Eliot

A friend
67 July 7, 2014
A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself-and especially to feel, or not feel. Whatever you happen to be feeling at any moment is fine with them. That's what real love amounts to – letting a person be what he really is.― Jim Morrison

Shantidevas’ Bodhisattva vows
Should anyone wish to ridicule me and make me an object of jest and scorn why should I possibly care if I have dedicated myself to others?
Let them do as they wish with me so long as it does not harm them. May no one who encounters me ever have an insignificant contact.
Regardless whether those whom I meet respond towards me with anger or faith, may the mere fact of our meeting contribute to the fulfilment of their wishes.
May the slander, harm and all forms of abuse that anyone should direct towards me act as a cause of their enlightenment.
As a solid rock is not shaken by the wind, so the wise are not shaken by blame and praise. As a deep lake is clear and calm, so the wise become tranquil after they listened to the truth…
Good people walk on regardless of what happens to them. Good people do not babble on about their desires. Whether touched by happiness or by sorrow, the wise never appear elated or depressed. ~The Dhammapada
