Via Ram Dass


One dies as one lives...Once that starts to fall into place, then the question is how you use the moment-to-moment experiences of your life as a vehicle for awakening.

Via Daily Dharma / The Evolution of Understanding:

When I arrived at a more intimate knowledge, I came to the point where I saw that mountains are not mountains, and rivers are not rivers. But now that I have got its very substance, I am at rest. For it’s just that I see mountains once again as mountains, and rivers once again as rivers.

—Qingyuan Weixin, "First There Is a Mountain (Then There Is No Mountain)"

 

Viva Hans Rosling!

 
Woke up to find that dear, dear Hans Rosling, has passed away. The world has lost a good, decent man who offered us all a postive message using data... I am crushed.

Take time today to listen to him. Viva Hans Rosling!
