'Mercy has a human heart. Pity a human face: And Love the human form divine, And Peace the human dress.' ~ William Blake. ________________________ "If you cannot find the truth right where you are, where else do you expect to find it?" ~ Dogen ________________________ All of us human beings, need compassion and growth. My aspiration is to wake up, open my heart and touch yours.
If Snoop Dogg became enlightened tomorrow, he would not lose his "Snoopiness!" Likewise, who we are on a relative level does not disappear after awakening but a space opens up marked by acceptance, love, grace and forgiveness that envelops our humanity.
-Atreya Thomas
Outrageous! ;)
