karma wisdom memories
To find Buddha, you have to see your nature. Whoever sees his nature is a Buddha. If you don't see your nature, invoking buddhas, reciting sutras, making offerings, and keeping precepts are all useless. Invoking buddhas results in good karma, reciting sutras results in a good memory, keeping precepts results in good rebirth, and making offerings results in future blessings-but no Buddha. Bodhidharma

There is a voiceless cry resting in the depths of our souls, waiting for expression. Art gives the soul's feelings voice and form. Daisaku Ikeda

karma believe greatness
How aware are we of our own inner life, our spirituality-something so intangible yet so priceless?

pain growing-up writing
At last I understood that the way over, or through this dilemma, the unease at writing about 'petty personal problems' was to recognize that nothing is personal, in the sense that it is uniquely one's own. Writing about oneself, one is writing about others, since your problems, pains, pleasures, emotions—and your extraordinary and remarkable ideas—can't be yours alone. [...] Growing up is after all only the understanding that one's unique and incredible experience is what everyone shares. Doris Lessing
