“Karma is not something pessimistic. If you think of karma as something wrong, you are seeing karma only according to what happened in the past. You look at the past and karma becomes a monster. So you should also look at karma in the present and future. Then karma becomes something very wide and really alive. Through karma you can understand what your destiny is. Destiny itself has no solid form; it's something you can create. You can create your life. That is why we study karma.” IfsThinkingShouldLooksPastFormDestinyStudyAliveSeeingHappenedWideKarmaMonstersOur DestinyYour DestinyPessimistic Book:Each Moment Is the Universe: Zen and the Way of Being Time Source: Each Moment Is the Universe: Zen and the Way of Being Time
“Never let success hide its emptiness from you, achievement its nothingness, toil its desolation. And so...keep alive the incentive to push on further, that pain in the soul which drives us beyond ourselves...Do not look back. And do not dream about the future, either. It will neither give you back the past, nor satisfy your other daydreams. Your duty, your reward - your destiny - are here and now.” GivingLooksSoulDreamPainPastDestinyAliveDutyAchievementRewardsEmptinessNothingnessToilIncentivesOur DestinyYour DestinyHere And NowDaydreamingDesolation Author:Dag Hammarskjold
