"Of myself I am nothing. The Father doeth the works."
-Jesus
There may be sweet pleasures for the body in this world. But anything other than love for God, whose beauty is unmatched, is agony to the soul. What is agony of the soul? It is to advance towards death without being sustained by the water of life.
-Rumi, "Mathnawi"
Love blinds us to faults, hatred to virtues.
- Moshe ibn Ezra, "Shirat Yisrael
Gone to the beyond of becoming,
you let go of in front,
let go of behind,
let go of between.
With a heart everywhere let go,
you don't come again to birth
& aging.
-Dhammapada, 24, translated by Thanissaro Bhikkhu.
"Let Go. Let God."
