The Limits of Language
Our hearts and minds change from moment to moment, just as the clouds shift in the evening sky as the sun goes down. Who are we to think we have grasped the true nature of our souls? The Buddha-mind within us will not be constrained by the limits of language. – Abbess Fushimi, “Shedding Light” |

 Responding to Insults
Freedom means being able to choose how we respond to things. When wisdom is not well developed, it can be easily obscured by the provocations of others. In such cases we may as well be animals or robots. If there is no space between an insulting stimulus and its immediate conditioned response–anger–then we are in fact under the control of others. – Andrew Olendzki, “Calm in the Face of Anger “ |
