The Master gives himself up to whatever the moment brings. He knows that he is going to die, and he has nothing left to hold on to: no illusions in his mind, no resistances in his body. He doesn’t think about his actions; they flow from the core of his being. He holds nothing back – Read More –

FIND YOUR PATH

While outside today, I overheard two ladies discussing their fear of taking big risks. And later, I heard another discussion of whether one’s fate is the result of effort or destiny.
