If your kingdom exists for the doctrine and not for fame or desire, then it will be extremely fruitful. If not, its fruit will be misfortune.
-Scriptures "Nagarjuna, Precious Garland 327"
If your kingdom exists for the doctrine and not for fame or desire, then it will be extremely fruitful. If not, its fruit will be misfortune.
Longing is like the rosy dawn. After the dawn, out comes the sun. Longing is followed by the vision of God.
The fundamental desire of life is the desire to exist.
Of all longings and desires, there is none stronger than sex. Sex as a desire has no equal. Rely on the Oneness. No one under heaven is able to become a follower of the Way if he accepts dualism.
O Lord! I may have increased desire for the objective world like other people but with this difference that I shall look upon it as Thyself without any idea of duality.
Who realises all the happiness he desires? Everything is in the hands of God. Therefore, one should learn contentment.
For which of you desiring to build a tower, does not first sit down and count the cost, whether he has enough to complete it?
