A living body is not merely an integration of limbs and flesh but it is the abode of the soul which potentially has perfect perception, perfect knowledge, perfect power, and perfect bliss…Have compassion towards all living beings. Hatred leads to destruction. Respect for all living beings is non-violence…
The universe has been created out of knowledge and action and seems also possessed of consciousness.
Don’t hate life and death or love life and death. Keep your every thought free of delusion, and in life you’ll witness the beginning of nirvana, and in death you’ll experience the assurance of no rebirth.
From the solemn gloom of the temple children run out to sit in the dust. God watches them play and forgets the priest.
All the powers in the universe are already ours. It is we who have put our hands before our eyes and cry that it is dark.
