Come behold this world, which is like unto an ornamented royal chariot, wherein fools flounder, but for the wise there is no attachment.
-Dhammapada "Dhammapada 171"
Come behold this world, which is like unto an ornamented royal chariot, wherein fools flounder, but for the wise there is no attachment.
Be content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realise there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you.
The entire world may not change. But your tiny world you can and will change forever at this very moment with the help of your confidence-heart. Yours will be the unparalleled victory.
Compassion: I don’t think that there is another world as important in marking a person’s inner growth. No other word completely conveys what this single word conveys.
The "world" is expanding on the Principle of Evolution. This expansion is
not just confined to its time and space but is also taking place at the level of
consciousness; which too has gradually traversed from being an amoeba to a
human being.
-Deep Trivedi
Can the world exist without one to cognise it? Which comes first the being-consciousness or the rising-consciousness? The former is always there and eternal; the latter rises and disappears. It is transient.
