“I can give you a spirit love, I have given you this long, long time; but not embodied passion. See, you are a nun. I have given you what I would give a holy nun...In all our relations no body enters. I do not talk to you through the senses - rather through the spirit. That is why we cannot love in the common sense.” GivingLongI CanBodySpiritPassionGivenCommonHolyLong TimeRelationSensesCommon SenseNunSpirit Love Author:D. H. Lawrence
“To be a nun is a very great blessing. It's a great inspiration to think that the Sangha goes all the way back to the Buddha and that so many fantastic, really truly-realized beings have been ordained. Thinking of all those members, such a wonderful, exalted and holy order - I love the Sangha.” ThinkingWayHas BeensInspirationOrderWonderfulHolyBlessingMembersFantasticExaltedNunSangha Author:Tenzin Palmo

“It is a beauteous evening, calm and free, The holy time is quiet as a nun Breathless with adoration; the broad sun Is sinking down in its tranquillity; The gentleness of heaven broods o'er the sea: Listen! the mighty being is awake, And doth with his eternal motion make A sound like thundereverlastingly.” TimeHeavenSoundSunSeaHolyQuietEternalCalmEveningAwakeBroadsGentlenessAdorationSinkingNunBreathlessTranquillity Author:William Wordsworth
