quotes

"The warrior knows that intuition is God's alphabet and he continues listening to the wind and talking to the stars" (Paulo Coelho)

"A teacher should bow close to the ground like a fruit tree" (Gautam, our Hindi teacher)

"We wear out the shoe of samsara by walking on it through meditation" (Chogyam Trungpa)

"For penetrating to the depths of our true nature... nothing can surpass the practice of Zen in the midst of activity... the power or wisdom obtained by practicing zen in the world of action is like a rose that rises from the fire. The rose that rises from the midst of flames becomes all the more beautiful and fragrant the nearer the fire rages." (Hakuin)
