Love says, "I am everything". Wisdom says, "I am nothing". Between the two, my life flows.
An online marketplace for selling and buying all things handmade!
It's like shopping at the artists market, but from your own home.
I discovered the website just in time for Christmas and along with my
trip to Blue Banana Market in Toronto, have managed to get almost everyone on
my list home made gifts.
Every morning, when we wake up, we have twenty-four brand-new hours to live. What a precious gift!
We have the capacity to live in a way that these twenty-four hours will bring peace, joy, and happiness
to ourselves and others.
Peace is present right here and now, in ourselves and in everything we do and see.
The Question is whether or not we are in touch with it. We don't have to travel far away to enjoy the blue sky.
We don't have to leave our city or even our neighborhood to enjoy the eyes of a beautiful child. Even the air we
breathe can be a source of joy.
We can smile, breathe, walk, and eat our meals in a way that allows us to be in touch with the abundance of happiness
that is available. We are very good at preparing to live, but not very good at living. We know how to sacrifice ten years
for a diploma, and we are willing to work very hard to get a job, a car, a house, and so on. But we have difficulty remembering that we are alive at the present moment, the only moment there is for us to be alive.
Every breath we take, every step we make, can be filled with peace, joy, and serenity. We need only to be awake, alive in
the present moment. ... Thich Nhat Hanh
BUDDHA is a wonderfully imaginative story of a man and his iconic journey to personal spiritual growth.
| The experience still fresh in my mind. This has been a very grounding weekend for me. Full of surprises and full of emotions. It all ended with a long, warm and loving hug from Gurumata. All I could mutter from my lips was a silent Thank You. What else is there to add ... darshan was the most emotional moment of the entire weekend. Don't question the Truth. |
