Notes
A teacher cannot give you the truth.
The truth is already in you.
You only need to open yourself –
body, mind and heart-
so that his or her teachings will penetrate your own seeds of understanding and enlightenment.
If you let the words enter you, the soil and the seeds will do the rest of the work.
— Thich Nhat Hanh -

Notes
In the end these things will matter most:
How well did you love?
How fully did you live?
How deeply did you learn to let go?

Notes"We have only one consciousness stream. When we associate with truth, we ascend upwards and when we associate with untruth we fall down."Acharya Tulsi, a Jainst teacher quoted in the book, “Harmony of All Religions” (via santmat)
