“The heart is the source of love, truth and wisdom. The whole education system is based on one strategy, which is to teach people how to ignore the heart. It condemns the heart, it condemns feelings and it ppreciates thinking and logic. Love is true wisdom. Logic is empty compared to the heart. It has no soul in it. It is only love that can fulfill one. It is only love  that can give real meaning to your life. It is only love that can give you authentic growth. To move from the head to the heart is wisdom. That is the journey  of a meditator.”

“One morning I woke up and found my favorite pigeon, Julius, had died. I was devastated and was going to use his crate as my stickball bat to honor him. I left the crate on my stoop and went in to get something and I returned to see the sanitation man put the crate into the crusher. I rushed him and caught him flush on the temple with a titanic right hand and he was out cold, convulsing on the floor.”

“In the realm of software creation, philosophical logic becomes the guiding light, illuminating the path from obscurity to enlightenment. With serene clarity, we navigate the turbulent waters of customer requirements, transforming confusion into tranquility, and chaos into harmony. In each requirement, we discover the essence of interconnectedness, weaving a tapestry of understanding where every thread finds its rightful place.”

“Wisdom happens through the heart. Wisdom is of the heart, not through logic. When the heart is open with love, when the heart is surrendered to life, then a new insight arises in you, which is a deep understanding of what life is really all about. It is a deep understanding of who you really are. It is a deep understanding of why this existence really exists. All the secrets of life are revealed through the heart, but not through logic. God, the divine, existence, has a direct connection with the heart, but has no connection with the head. If one wants to approach God, the divine, the way goes through the heart. once you have know the wisdom of the heart, then you can use the mind in service of wisdom. Move your energy from the head to the heart, and as your love grows, wisdom will descend on you.”
