“To awaken to the absolute view is profound and transformative, but to awaken from all fixed points of view is the birth of true non-duality. If emptiness cannot dance, it is not true emptiness. If moonlight does not flood the empty night sky and reflect in every drop of water, on every blade of grass, then you are only looking at your own empty dream.” IfsDoeDreamNightWaterViewsVisionSkyBirthEmptyAbsolutesProfoundPoint Of ViewGrassFixedEmptinessFloodBladesMoonlightDualityNight SkyDrop Of WaterBlades Of Grass Author:Adyashanti
“The talker has found a hearer but not a listener; and though he may talk his very best for his own sake, you will find that his mental movements are erratic: they have no fixed centre and no definite object. His talk is like the water of a canal whose banks have given way, which rolls aimlessly hither and thither, without fulfilling any useful function, though it is the same water which was so helpful and serviceable, when it was confined within clearly marked limits by the restraining force of its earthy boundaries.” WayMayFoundGivenForceWaterMovementObjectsListeningLimitsFunctionSakeBoundariesFixedHelpfulListenersFulfillingDefiniteCentreConfinedTalkersCanalsRestrainingErratic Author:Charles Dickens
“I have so fixed the habit in my own mind that I never raise a glass of water to my lips without a moment's asking of God's blessing. I never seal a letter without putting a word of prayer under the seal. I never take a letter from the post without a brief sending of my thoughts heavenward. I never change classes in the section room without a minute's petition on the cadets who go out and those who come in.” MindWarMomentsWaterMy OwnPrayerRoomsClassMinutesHabitBlessingLettersAskingRaisesLipsGlassesPostsFixedSectionsMy ThoughtsNever ChangeSealsPetitionsConfederateSilent PrayerCadets Author:Stonewall Jackson
