it's not enough


'It’s not enough to get to work on time, to firm up the waist line, to balance the cheque book, and learn how to smile like a nice person. 
If that’s all there is, we’re still the same little earth worms, getting older every day, and no wondrous new birth has taken place within us.'

'A Buddhist Koan says: “The master holds the disciple’s head underwater for a long, long time; gradually the bubbles become fewer; at the last moment, the master pulls the disciple out and revives him: when you have craved truth as you crave air, then you will know what truth is".'
