“(Because) the notion of absolute truth is difficult to sustain outside the context of religion, ethical conduct is not something we engage in because it is somehow right in itself but because, like ourselves, all others desire to be happy and to avoid suffering. Given that this is a natural disposition, shared by all, it follows that each individual has a right to pursue this goal. Accordingly, I suggest that one of the things which determines whether an act is ethical or not is its effect on others' experience or expectation of happiness.” DesireSufferingIndividualGivenDifficultGoalNaturalEffectsTruth IsExpectationsEthicsAbsolutesNotionDeterminePursueEthicalDispositionAbsolute Truth Author:Dalai Lama
“The Zen meditative approach has a simple, unstated premise: moods and attitudes shape—determine—what we think and perceive. If we feel happy, we tend to develop certain trains of thought. If we feel sad or angry, still others. But suppose, with training, we become nonattached to distractions and learn to dampen these wild, emotional swings on either side of equanimity. Then we can enter that serene awareness which is the natural soil for positive, spontaneous personal growth, often called spiritual growth.” IfsThinkingFeelsStillsSpiritualCertainSidesGrowthNaturalSimpleAttitudeLearningSadnessAwarenessEmotionalShapesApproachTrainingAngryTrainPersonal GrowthDetermineHappyMoodPerceiveSoilSpiritual GrowthDistractionSwingsSpontaneousPremisesSereneEquanimityTrain Of Thought Book:Zen and the Brain: Toward an Understanding of Meditation and Consciousness Source: Zen and the Brain: Toward an Understanding of Meditation and Consciousness
