"None of the means employed to acquire religious merit, O monks, has a sixteeth part of the value of loving-kindness. Loving-kindness, which is freedom of heart, absorbs them all; it glows, it shines, it blazes forth."--IvituttakaQuote of the Week
"While having every intention of studying and practicing Dharma, you may well keep putting it off until tomorrow or the next day, day by day all your life. You must avoid a whole human lifetime forever planning to practice."--Patrul RinpocheTo unsubscribe
