Quote by Craig D. Lounsbrough

“If you walk alone, your perspective of the journey is held hostage to the entirely singular view through which you experience it. However, if you dare to walk it with another you will lose the journey as you’ve known it, but you will gain the journey as you’ve never thought to know it.”

“We know how to do this. And what's more, we crave doing it, feeling more alive with every gift exchange. 44 We live in the tension between what is and what is possible. 47 The Honorable Harvest Know the ways of the ones who take care of you, so that you may take care of them. Introduce yourself. Be accountable as the one who comes asking for life. Ask permission before taking. Abide by the answer. Never take the first. Never take the last. Take only what you need. Take only that which is given. Never take more than half. Leave some for others. Harvest in a way that minimizes harm. Use it respectfully. Never waste what you have taken. Share. Give thanks for what you have been given. Give a gift, in reciprocity for what you have taken. Sustain the ones who sustain you and the earth will last forever. 64-65”

“Всъщност Тайната му е такава, че трябва да се сподели с някого. Тя е голяма и иска да излезе навън по света. И да се разпръсне. Какво ли ще стане? Когато човек не знае какво представлява тя? Рисунката си е рисунка, тя не търпи други очи. Така мина известно време. След това Елвис разреши проблема. Разрешението беше толкова очевидно, че е трябвало веднага да се сети за него. Нали има семена. Семената са също тайни, с които е изпълнена цялата природа. Има ги дори по магазините. Но са малко хората, които се грижат те да бъдат посадени в земята и да пораснат. Хората не разбират какво представлява едно семе. Може би самите те трябва да си имат тайна, за да разберат това? Ако човек вземе семена и ги посади навсякъде, където живеят хора, които обича, все едно, че е споделил тайната си. И радостта от нея. Има много хора, които Елвис обича, макар че не ги познава. Но това не е и необходимо.”

“If you are a meditative person, you give, you share -- you don't hoard, you are not miserly. You don't possess. How can you possess in this world? How can you claim that 'I am the owner?' And if you are meditative, your whole life will become a sharing. You will give whatsoever you can give -- your love, your understanding, your compassion -- whatsoever you can you will give -- your energy, body, mind, soul -- whatsoever. And you will enjoy it. There is no greater enjoyment than that of sharing something. Have you given something to somebody? That's why people enjoy giving gifts so much. It is a sheer delight. When you give something to somebody -- maybe valueless, may not be of much value -- but just the way, just the gesture that you give, satisfies tremendously. Just think of a person whose whole life is a gift! whose every moment is a sharing -- he lives in heaven. ..it is a true secret of life -- give and you will get millionfold; share and in the very sharing you will become richer. Go on hoarding and you will become poorer and poorer. You cannot find a poorer man than a miser. He may have much, but he has nothing -- because you can have only that which you have given. It is a paradox only in appearance. Let me repeat it: You possess only that which you have given; you never possess that which you have hoarded -- you become a master of something which you share. Share! Before death knocks on your door, share -- whatsoever you have. You can sing a beautiful song? -- sing it, share it. You can paint a picture? -- paint, share it. You can dance? -- go and dance, share it. Whatsoever you have -- and I have never come across a man who has not much to share. If you want to share, you have too much to share. If you don't want to share, you may have enough, more than enough, but you are poor, you don't have anything.”

“The wish to have everything by one’s own power is false pride. Even what one owes to others belongs nevertheless to oneself and is a piece of one’s own life, and the desire to calculate what one has 'earned' on one’s own and what one owes to others is surely not Christian and is a futile undertaking besides. With what one is in oneself and what one receives, a person is a whole.”

“Selfless Nuts (The Sonnet) If someone wants to do harm they'll do harm, Whether they have nukes or sticks and stone. If someone wants to do good they'll do good, Whether they have a billion dollars or just one. Intention is the mother of all good deeds 'n bad, It has got nothing to do with having resources. With intention one bread can feed ten people, It cannot feed even one when there is no intent. A world that is run by greed stops for nobody, Who cares what such a world thinks as righteous! In such a world you gotta throw caution to the wind, And stand as pillar of service among the retards. Long enough snobbish retards have ruled the world! Now it is time for selfless nuts to take charge.”

“It is on the consciousness level of the heart that we begin to understand that we are not separated from life. We begin to understand that we are not small separate islands in a great ocean, but that life is one and that we all are small parts of the Whole. We begin to understand what is really important and meaningful in life. It is on the consciousness level of the heart that we begin to understand that life is about sharing, rather than hoarding. We begin to understand that life is about giving, rather than taking. Above the consciousness level of the heart, we need a teacher and a guide. It is somebody who “knows”, who has walked further on the path than us and who can guide, encourage and inspire us. There is an Indian saying: “When the disciple is ready, the teacher occurs.”
