Sunday

This quotation of Jefferson on Christianity comes to mind:

"Were I to be the founder of a new sect, I would call them Apiarians, and, after the example of the bee, advise them to extract the honey of every sect."

-- To Thomas B. Parker, May 15, 1819.


Transformational Truth 7: Gautama Buddha
Do not believe anything because it is said by an authority, or if it is said to come from angels, or from gods, or from an inspired source.
Believe it only if you have explored it in your own heart and mind and body and found it to be true.
Work out your own path, through diligence.
~ Gautama Buddha


"One must learn an inner solitude, wherever one may be."
~ Meister Eckhart




"If you want to become an agent of change, you have to remember to keep your sense of humor."
- Desmond Tutu


Let The Light In! -
"Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that."
~ Martin Luther King Jr



This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness."
Dalai Lama


"The only impossible journey is the one you never begin."
- Tony Robbins.


"May you experience each day as a sacred gift woven around the heart of wonder."
- John O'Donohue
