Why Become Enlightened?
Why become enlightened? This is a question I sometimes ask myself. The answer I give is twofold: to make the world a better place and to avoid the pain of clinging to an existence that is unhappy. My belief is that somewhere down the line these two reasons converge: that my own ability to reach peace with myself will benefit the whole world. – Kate Brandt, “When the World is Perfect” |
May you be free from suffering and the causes of suffering! All my best,
