"In the morning sunshine, in the evening twilight, a small Bear travels through a
Forest. Why did we follow him when we were so much younger? He is, after all, only a Bear
of Little Brain. But is Brain all that important? Is it really Brain that takes us where
we need to go? Or is it all too often Brain that sends us off in the wrong direction,
following the echo of the wind in the treetops, which we think is real, rather than
listening to the voice within us that tells us which way to turn?"
"Abstract
cleverness of mind only separates the thinker from the world of reality, and the world,
the Forest of Real Life, is in a desperate condition now because of too many who think too
much and care too little."
"We are what we think. All that we
are arises with our thoughts.
With
our thoughts we make the world." ~~Dhammapada
