Spirituality

Alone one delights in solitude He who sits alone, rests alone, walks alone unindolent, who in solitude controls himself, will find delight in the forest.

He who lives looking for pleasures only, his senses uncontrolled, immoderate in his food, idle, and weak, Mara (the Tempter) will certainly overthrow him, as the wind throws down a weak tree. He who lives without looking for pleasures, his senses well controlled, moderate in his food, faithful and strong, him Mara will certainly not overthrow, any more than the wind throws down a strong mountain. Dhammapada V. 7-8

Free Thought

Thousands of candles can be lit from a single candle, and the life of the original candle will not be shortened for that reason. Wisdom never decreases by being shared.
