pray for knowledge and light

paul newman, bodhisattva

 

Mentally repeat,

‘Let all beings be happy;

let all beings be peaceful; let all

beings be blissful.’ So do to the east,

south, north and west. The more you do

that the better you will feel yourself. You will

find at last that the easiest way to make ourselves

healthy is to see that others are healthy, and the

easiest way to make ourselves happy is to see

that others are happy. After doing that,

those who believe in God should pray—

not for money, not for health, nor

for heaven; pray for knowledge

and light; every other

prayer is selfish.

 

Swami Vivekananda

 

place your esteem on the tao

ryo takemasa

 

He who desires

the admiration of the world

will do well to amass a great fortune

and then give it away. The world will respond

with admiration in proportion to the size

of his treasure. Of course, this

is meaningless.

 

Stop striving after

admiration. Place your esteem on

the tao. Live in accord with it, share with

others the teachings that lead to it,

and you will be immersed in the

blessings  that flow

from it.
