“Science without religion is dangerous because it necessarily entails a mechanization of humanity and consequent loss of individual autonomy and spirituality. On the other hand, religion without science is powerless because it lacks an effective means through which to actualize the ultimate reality. Science and religion must work together harmoniously.” MeanHandsRealityTogetherHumanitySpiritualityIndividualLossDangerousUltimateWorking TogetherPowerlessScience And ReligionAutonomyUltimate RealityMechanizationIndividual Autonomy Book:Zen and the Modern World: A Third Sequel to Zen and Western Thought Source: Zen and the Modern World: A Third Sequel to Zen and Western Thought

“It is so important to remember that, as we travel through life, there will be so many events which we can`t control. These are things that seemingly alter our lives forever or become barriers for living a life of fulfillment. It`s important to remember that the ultimate experience of life is not to be controlled by events. We all have difficult events in our lives - the loss of family members, economics, stress, litigation, government interference in our businesses, health challenges. Remember that it is not the events that shape our lives, but, rather, the meaning we attach to them.” ImportantGovernmentRememberLife IsDifficultChallengesLossForeverOur LivesEventsShapesMembersEconomicsUltimateStressFulfillmentBarriersControlledInterferenceFamily MembersHealth Challenges Author:Tony Robbins

“Such a thing as the child left alone to die in the hallway was unknown on the marsh. But here, in the dawn, was mortality itself. In the city were places to fall from which one could never emerge -- dark dreams and slow death, the death of children, suffering without grace or redemption, ultimate and eternal loss. The memory of the child stayed with him. But that was not to be the end of it, for reality went around in a twisting ring. Even the irredeemable would be redeemed, and there was a balance for everything. There had to be.” ChildrenEndsDreamRealityWould BeSufferingDiesFallLeftMemoriesDarkLossCitiesGraceBalanceEternalUltimateRingsRedemptionDawnMortalityLeft AloneRedeemedHallwaysMarshesDark Dreams Author:Mark Helprin
