Via Daily Dharma: Our Common Quality
Via Ram Dass - Love Serve Remember Foundation // Words of Wisdom - April 26, 2023 💌
"When you give another human being, your family, or your business, the fullness of your being at any moment, a little is enough. When you give them half of it, because you’re time binding with your mind, there is never enough. You begin to hear the secret that being fully in the present moment is the greatest gift you can give to each situation."
- Ram Dass -

Via Daily Dharma: Remember the Meaning of Ritual
In
seeking to “live more like a monk,” it is vital not to confuse the
outer appearance and forms of ritual life with the wisdom and compassion
that such rituals are meant to instill. In other words, don’t confuse
the jelly jar for the sweet jelly within.
