There lies a green field between the scholar and the poet;

should the scholar cross it he becomes a wise man;

should the poet cross it, he becomes a prophet

A scientist who studied monkeys on an island in Indonesia was able to teach a certain one to wash bananas in the river before eating them. Cleansed of sand and dirt, the food was more flavorful. The scientist who did this only because he was studying the learning capacity of monkeys did not imagine what would eventually happen. So he was surprised to see that the other monkeys on the island began to imitate the first one. "And then, one day, when a certain number of monkeys had learned to wash their bananas, the monkeys on all of the other islands in the archipelago began to do the same thing. What was most surprising, though, was that the other monkeys learned to do so without having had any contact with the island where the experiment had been conducted." He stopped. "Do you understand?" "No," I answered. "There are several similar scientific studies. The most common explanation is that when a certain number of people evolve, the entire human race begins to evolve. We don't know how many people are needed but we know that's how it works

You have two choices: to control your mind or to let your mind control you.

You're already familiar with the latter experience,

allowing yourself to be swept along by fears, neuroses, insecurity,

for all we have self-destructive tendencies

because they feel that they don’t deserve them,

or that they’ll be unable to achieve them

many people have stopped living.

They do not become angry, nor cry out;

they merely wait for time to pass.

They did not accept the challenges of life,

so life no longer challenges them.

react, face life, but do not stop living

God separated a spirit from Himself and fashioned it into Beauty.

He showered upon her all the blessings of gracefulness and kindness.

He gave her the cup of happiness and said,

“Drink not from this cup unless you forget the past and the future,

for happiness is naught but the moment.”

And He also gave her a cup of sorrow and said,

“Drink from this cup and you will understand the meaning of the fleeting instants of the joy of life,

for sorrow ever abounds"

a field turned into a battleground;

after the trees are uprooted

and the grass is burned

and the rocks are reddened with blood

and the earth is planted with bones and skulls,

it is calm and silent as if nothing has happened;

for the spring and autumn come at their intervals

and resume their work

Your soul is oftimes a battlefield,

upon which your reason and your judgement

wage war against your passion and your appetite

because there

I shall meet my unwritten poems

and my unpainted pictures

life is a sort of debt and payment.

It gives us again and takes from us anew

until we get tired of the giving and receiving

and surrender to the final sleep

The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite,

and He bends you with His might

that His arrows may go swift and far.

Let your bending in the archer’s hand be for gladness;

For even as He loves the arrow that flies,

so He loves also the bow that is stable

Seven centuries ago seven white doves rose from a deep valley flying to the snow-white summit of the mountain.

One of the seven men who watched the flight said,

"I see a black spot on the wing of the seventh dove."

Today the people in that valley tell of seven black doves who flew to the summit of the snowy mountain

You are not enclosed within your bodies, nor confined to houses or fields.

That which is you dwells above the mountain and roves with the wind.

It is not a thing that crawls into the sun for warmth or digs holes into darkness for safety,

But a thing free, a spirit that envelops the earth and moves in the ether.

If these be vague words, then seek not to clear them.

Vague and nebulous is the beginning of all things,

but not their end
