Implicit Inquiry

"To give up in order to gain, than this there is no greater delusion, nor no more prolific source of misery; but to be willing to yield up and to suffer loss, this is indeed the Way of Life. How is it possible to find real happiness by centering ourselves in those things which, by their very nature, must pass away? Abiding and real happiness can only be found by centering ourselves in that which is permanent. Rise, therefore, above the clinging to and the craving for impermanent things, and you will then enter into a consciousness of the Eternal, and as, rising above self, and by growing more and more into the spirit of purity, self-sacrifice and universal Love, you become centered in that consciousness, you will realize that happiness which has no reaction, and which can never be taken from you.

The art of friendship. Learned.

This is a story of the friendship of two lizards. In order to renovate the house, a Japanese man breaks open the wall. Japanese houses normally have a hollow space between the wooden walls. When tearing down the walls, he found that there was a lizard stuck there, because a nail from outside had been hammered into one of its feet. He sees this, feels pity, & at the same time curiousity. When he checks the nail, it was nailed 5 years ago, when the house was built!!! *What happened?* The lizard had survived in such a position for 5 yrs!!!

He was stunned and touched deeply.

Who you can be is always greater than who you are, be you the greatest king or lowliest peasant. This is quite depressing knowing that whatever we be there, is always an unimaginable presence or existence of our self we can be. Upon this realization I say be still my heart and be glad
