This very moment is the perfect teacher, it is always with us, it is the most profound instruction we can receive. Awareness is found in our pleasure and our pain, our confusion and our wisdom; it is available in each moment of our ordinary lives.
It is good to have sacred sites in the world and it is good for us to go on pilgrimages. Ultimately it is not the place that is important, it is what you feel that is lasting. Go with a humble attitude and let your heart be moved by what you experience.
Discover your truth, then you will realize the world is perfect as it is, and it can’t be improved. See things as they are without trying to control them, let things go their own way. Treat our planet with care, moderation and love; let go of things, just stay in your center.
Contemplate the forms that exist in nature, then you will understand the times and its changing demands. Contemplate the forms existing in society it becomes possible to change the world. Silencing desires brings clarity within, quiet without, tranquility for contemplation.
Quote: By regarding all things as transient, you are able to act simply without seeking anything extraneous.
