Beginning and end are part of a single ring and no one can comprehend its principle. This is called Heaven the Equaliser.
-Scriptures
For him who has completed the journey, for him who is sorrowless, for him who from everything is wholly free, for him who has destroyed all ties, the fever of passion exists not… He is like a pool, unsullied by mud; to such a balanced one, life’s wanderings do not arise. Calm is his mind, calm is his speech, calm is his action, who, rightly knowing, is wholly freed, perfectly peaceful and equipoised.
-Dhammapada

-C. S. Lewis
Happiness comes from the soul’s satisfaction not from satisfaction of vitals or body.
-Sri Aurobindo
So imagine that the lovely moon is playing just for you - everything makes music if you really want it to.
-Giles Andreae
Character is like a tree and reputation like a shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing.
-Abraham Lincoln
