- Sleep, eat, practice
Sleep, eat, practice
happiness is the key
to unlock the secrets
why you have parents
so are also teachers
on this very journey
from there to here
to be fair and kind
no theater then
help as possible
ask the heart
loving life
and chose
what fits
embrace
all else
detach
let go
and be
open eyes
and mouth
back straight
shoulders back
rest in peace
now ever
as it is.“Dharma wheel medicine” — sleep, eat, practice
ReachMin / ReachBal w/o 7th on F# (rel. A 438 Hz) — 7-string guitar, tenor recorder — 6:25 Sleep, eat, and practice being awake in joy
“One who conquers himself is greater than another who conquers a thousand times a thousand men on the battlefield. Be victorious over yourself and not over others. When you attain victory over yourself, not even the gods can turn it into defeat.”
“Better to live in freedom and wisdom for one day than to lead a conditioned life of bondage for a hundred years.”
“Why is there laughter, why merriment, when the world is on fire? When you are living in darkness, why don’t you look for light?”
“Your own self is your master; who else could be? With yourself well controlled, you gain a master very hard to find.”
“Don’t neglect your own duty for another, however great. Know your own duty and perform it.”
“Let us live in joy, never hating those who hate us. Let us live in freedom, without hatred even among those who hate.”
— The Dhammapada (#103-105, 113, 146, 160, 166, 197), translated by Eknath Easwaran, pp. 135, 136, 150, 157, 158, 177
