QUOTE OF THE WEEK:
It is easier to run down the mountain than it is to run up the mountain. The top os the mountain is Heaven, the Earth is at the bottom. It is easier to run down the mountain, so in going up the mountain it is best to take one step at a time. Since Enlightenment is not going anywhere, you might as well enjoy yourself along the way.

THIS EXCERPT IS FROM ONE OF JAIN MASTER
CHITRABHANUJI'S TALKS

THREE MEN

Three men boasted one day and said to one another, "Did you know I look like Churchill?"

His friend responded, "I look like Charles de Gaulle of France."

The third man proclaimed, "They say that I look like God."

His friends then exclaimed, "How can YOU look like God?"

The man replied confidently, "When I was caught and returned to prison for the fifth time, the jailer said, "God, you are here again."

EGO OR CRAZY?

What is MEDITATION ? The integration of thoughts, words and actions.

As I've aged, I've become kinder to
myself, and less critical of myself. I've become my own friend.

I have seen too many dear friends leave this world too soon; before they understood the great freedom that comes with aging.

Whose business is it if I choose to read or play on the computer until 4 AM or sleep until noon? I will dance with myself to those wonderful tunes of the 60 &70's, and if I,
at the same time, wish to weep over a lost love .. I will.
I will walk the beach that is stretched over a bulging body,
and will dive into the waves with abandon if I choose to, despite the
pitying glances from the jet set.

They, too, will get old.
I know I am sometimes forgetful. But
there again, some of life is just as well forgotten. And I eventually
remember the important things.

Sure, over the years my heart has been
broken. How can your heart not break when you lose a loved one, or
when a child suffers, or even when somebody's beloved pet gets hit by
a car? But broken hearts are what give us strength and understanding
and compassion. A heart never broken is pristine and sterile and will
never know the joy of being imperfect.

I am so blessed to have lived long
enough to have my hair turning gray, and to have my youthful laughs
be forever etched into deep grooves on my face.
So many have never laughed, and so
many have died before their hair could turn silver.
As you get older, it is easier to be positive.
You care less about what other people think. I don't
question myself anymore..
I've even earned the right to be wrong.

So, to answer your question, I like
being old. It has set me free. I like the person I have become. I am
not going to live forever,
but while I am still here, I will not
waste time lamenting what could have been, or worrying about what
will be. And I shall eat dessert every single day(if I feel like it).
