Unfailing Altruism
The
practitioner’s mind is likened to a mountain that the winds can’t
shake; he’s neither tormented by the difficulties he may come across nor
elated by his successes. But that equanimity is neither apathy nor
indifference. It’s accompanied by inner jubilation, and by an openness
of mind expressed as unfailing altruism.
