Hope is a waking dream.

It isn’t the mountain ahead that wears you out; it’s the grain of sand in your shoe.
– Robert W. Service
When the speech of this dead person enters into the fire, breath into the air, the eye into the sun, the mind into the moon, the hearing into space, into the earth the body, into the ether the self, into the shrubs the hairs of the body, into the trees the hairs of the head, when the blood and the seed are deposited in the water, where is then that person?
Brihadaranyaka Upanishad, 3.2.13
We gain the strength of the temptation we resist.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Love says: “I am everything”. Wisdom says: “I am nothing”. Between the two my life flows.

(Chapter 57, Beyond the mind there is no suffering – I am that)
