“Action without compassion is like planting a dead tree. It will never grow. But any action that contains compassion is planting a living tree that grows endlessly and never dies. Or even if the tree dies, it always leaves a seed behind, which will grow into another tree. That organic quality of compassion goes on and on and on.” WisdomCompassionBuddhismMindfulnessEnlightenmentAwakening Author:Chögyam Trungpa
“When you commit yourself to the bodhisattva path, the path of helping others, you feel as if you have done it before and you have been doing it all along. It is like living up to your inheritance, or taking over your parents’ business. You feel that there is something quite natural and right about it.” WisdomCompassionBuddhismEnlightenmentAwakeningThe Bodhisattva Path Book:The Bodhisattva Path of Wisdom and Compassion Source: The Bodhisattva Path of Wisdom and Compassion
