The Truth About Gossip

When talking about others is motivated by thoughts of ill will, jealousy, or attachment, conversations turn into gossip. These thoughts may seem to be subconscious, but if we pay close attention to our mind we’ll be able to catch them in the act. Many of these are thoughts that we don’t want to acknowledge to ourselves, let alone to others, but my experience is that when I become courageous enough to notice and admit them, I’m on my way to letting them go.

I refuse to accept the view that we are so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and unity can never become a reality… I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word.

What is the ground that gives us the freedom to make the new future? …”The stilling of inclinations, the relinquishing of bases, the fading away of reactivity, desirelessness, stopping, nirvana.” Nirvana is that space within ourselves that’s not inflected or determined by our impulses, habits, reactivity, and so on, and that allows the possibility of another way of life which is called the Eightfold Path…

Perfect in just being ‘What It Is’ ~ as it is.
Having nothing to do with ‘good’ or ‘bad’,
‘acceptance’ or ‘rejection’ –
You might as well just burst out laughing!”
