Seldom does a book come along that speaks to the core issues of life with such clarity and wisdom. This profound book is deeply informed by the spiritual traditions of the West, the Far East, and the Native Americans, with whom the author has worked. It is a small treasure of wisdom about life’s deepest issues.
From the Book . . .
ON EDUCATION & LEARNING
The true measure of your education is not what you know, but how you share what you know with others.
ON MONEY
People who measure their money against their desires will never be happy, because there will always be another desire waiting to lure them. People who measure their money against their needs can gain control over their lives by gaining control over their needs.
ON LOVE
Love has its own time, its own season, and its own reasons for coming and going. You cannot bribe it or coerce it or reason it into staying. If it chooses to leave your heart or the heart of your lover, there is nothing you can do and nothing you should do. Be glad that it came to live for a moment in your life. If you keep your heart open, it will surely come again.

Цитати

  • Nikolai C.цитирапреди 5 дни
    So love the elders. Honor them. Go to them with a pure heart, unblinded by notions of false reverence or obligation and unaffected by self-serving feelings of pity. Listen to them. Observe them like a far-off country that you will someday visit, and learn the lessons that they have to teach.

    If you can honor and respect them, and allow them to share the fruits of their experience, however simple those fruits might be, you will gain a gift you can get nowhere else.

    You will gain the knowledge of your past and the wisdom to understand your future.

    Chinese philosopher Chuang Tzu spoke about when he said, “A frog in a well cannot be talked to about the sea.”
  • Nikolai C.цитирапреди 5 дни
    How you respond to tragedy and suffering is one true measure of your strength. You need to see those moments as moments of growth. You need to look upon them as gifts to help you reclaim what is important in your life.
