Words from the Suttas/Sutras:
"Get rid of the tendency
to judge yourself
above, below, or
equal to others.
A nun who has self-possession
and integrity
will find the peace that nourishes
and never causes surfeit".
----Therigatha, translated by Susan Murcott


Quote of the Week:
"In your meditation you yourself are the mirror reflecting the
solution of your problems. The human mind has absolute freedom within
its true nature. You can attain your freedom intuitively. Do not work
for freedom, rather allow the practice itself to be liberation".
---The Practice of Meditation, Zen Master Dogen
