Yes, it begins with me

Let me not forget what I came here for.

"Wisdom Tradition is a term that is sometimes given to the inner core or mystic aspects of a religious or spiritual tradition, without the trappings, doctrinal literalism, sectarianism, and power structures that are associated with institutionalised religion. The Wisdom Tradition provides a conceptual framework for the development of the inner self, living a spiritual life, and the realisation of Enlightenment or of Union with God."

from Wikipedia at (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wisdom_tradition)


“Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.”

“You will not be punished for your anger, you will be punished by your anger.”

“No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.”

“All that we are is the result of what we have thought. The mind is everything. What we think we become.”

“Thousands of candles can be lit from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared.”

Wisdom attributed to Hindu Prince Gautama Siddhartha, the founder of Buddhism, 563-483 B.C. Buddha, “the awakened one,” “the enlightened one”.

Namaste
