- If I am Being, then I am Being here, but also I am Being on the other side of town, simultaneously. And I become that Being, one, in those places together, at the same time ... and my head seems to explode.
- Today I destroyed a building I had built, a place of strong memories and poignant feelings, a place built in love, for love. I was sad and, by my own simple test, I was suffering a delusion. The love continues and the illusion fades. Yet how many people have done this where the love has also faded? "The fact of the matter is that this world is not our home. We are travellers, passing through. We came from our previous life, and in a few years, or a few days, we shall move on to our next life. We entered this world empty-handed and alone, and we shall leave empty-handed and alone. Everything we have accumulated in this life, including our very body, will be left behind. All that we can take with us from one life to the next are the imprints of the positive and negative actions we have created." ~ Living meaningfully, dying joyfully, (Introduction), Geshe Kelsang Gyatso.
