A Holy Heresy

I don't have to believe in him

I live with him.

Jehovah, man's most sublime invention

Is my God,

He is with me in all my thoughts,

And I treat him as a God and not as an errand boy;

To fetch what I need,

Or nurse me or defend me or comfort me.

No! He and I discourse about the wonder that is man,

That I am in him and He in me.

                                                               —Eric Hoffer

An Advantageous Position

Never before in American society have there been so many opportunities for self-realization and so few who know how to take advantage of them.

Strike at the Root

At one stroke I forgot all my knowledge!

There's no use for artificial discipline,

For, move as I will, I manifest the ancient way.

                                                     --Hsiang-Yen

The practice of way-seeking mind strikes at the root of fear and frees the mind to explore the world in the light of Truth.
