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.
Correcting oneself is correcting the whole world. The sun is simply bright. It does not correct anyone. Because it shines, the whole world is full of light. Transforming yourself is a means of giving light to the whole world.
Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.
When there is harmony in the home, there will be order in the nation. When there is order in the nation, there will be peace in the world.
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.
If we cannot envision the world we would like to live in, we cannot work towards its creation. If we cannot place ourselves in it in our imagination, we will not believe it is possible.
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 world exists by the "Three Dimensions Theory". Every particle of this world,
including us is driven by this theory. To understand all the three dimensions of
every substance and event is the ultimate height of human intelligence.
-Deep Trivedi
Learn to make the whole world your own. No one is a stranger, my child; this whole world is your own.
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.
