She treats them like her own children.”

“The master in the art of living makes little distinction between his work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body, his information and his recreation, his love and his religion.

“The master is within; meditation is meant to remove the ignorant idea that he is only outside. If he is a stranger whom you await, he is bound to disappear also. What is the use of a transient being like that? But so long as you think you are separate or that you are the body, an external master is also necessary and he will appear to have a body. When the wrong identification of oneself with the body ceases, the master will be found to be none other than the Self.”
“The Master keeps her mind always at one with the Tao; that is what gives her her radiance. The Tao is ungraspable. How can her mind be at one with it? Because she doesn't cling to ideas. The Tao is dark and unfathomable. How can it make her radiant? Because she lets it. Since before time and space were, the Tao is. It is beyond is and is not. How do I know this is true? I look inside myself and see.”
“The master key to treasure trove of love is not about finding happiness with someone else. It’s rather about searching happiness in oneself. Weirdly enough, the irony is – this master key is with each one of us, yet only few are capable of opening this lock of treasure.”

“The master maker of the human body did not create you and then run off and leave you masterless.

“The master of the palace had similar functions at the court of Judah. Announcing the promotion of Elyaqim, Isaiah 22:22 says: 'I lay the key of the house of David upon his shoulder, if he opens, none will shut; if he shuts, none will open.' The Egyptian vizier's instructions are described in a very similar fashion. Every morning 'the vizier will send someone to open the gates of the kings house, to admit those who have to enter, and to send out those who have to go out.' One is reminded of the Lord's words to Peter, the Vizier of the Kingdom of Heaven (Matthew 16:19).”
“The master of your body did not run off and leave you masterless.”
“The Master persistently warned against the attempt to encompass Reality in a concept or a name.

Then he opened them, put on his most disarming expression, and said, "Yes!"”

“The Master Plan by Stewart Stafford
Do you choose to lose yourself
In grief’s planetoid hinterlands,
Discarding every gift given
By loved ones in preparation?
Wade through marsh and swamp,
The world turns for mogul and meagre.
Burdened down by survivor's guilt,
Unspoken words, unfinished deeds,
A wandering, teetering flagellant,
Haunted by what should have been.
You were and are loved, not begrudged,
Olympic torch bravery delighting others.
Familiar hands on marathon's shore,
Offer self-medicating cocktails,
To numb the Captain to his storm,
Resist to avoid addiction's reefs,
Resolve to endure whatever comes.
We are driftwood, seedpods,
Blind to windswept grand design.
And the most important decision,
Who to pass trust's baton to?
We must not believe our eyes,
As all we see is weaponised.
Human instinct,
A mighty shield unseen,
Guiding us through,
Where we dare not lean.
The path of fearlessness,
A paradox in itself;
A source of fear,
Inside a shipyard of hope.
In dreamlike audacity,
grasp destiny with barriers lifted,
clothed in courage’s cloak.
Grieve,
Emerge transformed,
Octopus ink to glowing algae,
Knowing others will come,
To complete our healing.
Our plotted course continues,
Until privy to the master plan,
At last, upon the inverse shore,
As loved ones congratulate.

“The Master's Sacred Knowledge.
Love is the treasure you should seek!
The greatest treasure to be found
is in your heart.
It is a place where you have stored
your riches over the eons of time.
It is a place nobody else can go,
only you!
BUT, you can only reach it
by going into the heart centre.
Not many people discover their treasure,
as they are always looking
outside for it in material objects,
whereas it is inside and eternal
and of an etheric nature.
Love is that treasure!
- Allan Rufus (.org)”

“The Master said, "I have not seen a person who loved virtue, or one
who hated what was not virtuous. He who loved virtue, would esteem
nothing above it. He who hated what is not virtuous, would practice
virtue in such a way that he would not allow anything that is not
virtuous to approach his person.
"Is any one able for one day to apply his strength to virtue? I have
not seen the case in which his strength would be insufficient.
"Should there possibly be any such case, I have not seen it.”

“The Master said, "Wealth and honor are things that all people desire, and yet unless they are acquired in the proper way I will not abide them. Poverty and disgrace are things that all people hate, and yet unless they are avoided in the proper way I will not despise them. If the gentleman abandons ren, how can he be worthy of that name? The gentleman does not violate ren even for the amount of time required to eat a meal. Even in times of urgency or distress, he does not depart from it."”
“The master said, 'Quietly to store up knowledge in my mind, to learn without flagging, to teach without growing weary, these present me with no difficulties.'”

“The Master said, A gentleman, in his plans, thinks of the Way; he does not think how he is going to make a living. Even farming sometimes entails 5 times of shortage; and even learning may incidentally lead to high pay. But a gentleman's anxieties concern the progress of the Way; he has no anxiety concerning poverty.”
