Wisdom Beyond Basic Morals

That I feed the hungry,
forgive an insult,
and love my enemy ....
these are great virtues!
But what if I should discover
that the poorest of the beggars
and the most impudent of offenders
are all within me,
and that I stand in need of the alms of my own kindness;
that I myself am the enemy who must be loved?
What then?

Consciousness & Goodness

     “You do not become good by trying to be good, but by finding the goodness that is already within you, allowing that goodness to emerge,” a wise man told me. “But it can only emerge if something fundamentally shifts in your state of consciousness.”
