Although I am not a spiritual follower. I am a secular fan. I always enjoy your views and input on CNN. I find that your logic is always sound, and I appreciate your tolerance of other views and religions. Certainly, all but a minority of humanity cannot be condemned at death solely due to their chosen faith. That is not a God I would follow! Thank you for the friendship.
Deepak, Thank you kindly for your contribution to a better place. Your words are encouraging, inspiring and provide hope for a lot of those who feel lost. You are indeed a blessing. I look forward to the opportunity to meet you--perhaps on a joint venture with our mutual friend-Al Diaz (The Titus concept BEing the Titus Concept). AGAIN...Thank you! Namaste!
I appreciated your and your son's blogs about Michael. I was so great for me, and no doubt many many others, to read such a "normal" story. It is all very sad, but we know that MIchael is on the other side.
Be soft in your practice. Think of the method as a fine silvery stream, not a raging waterfall. Follow the stream, have faith in its course. It will go its own way, meandering here, trickling there. It will find the grooves, the cracks, the crevices. Just follow it. Never let it out of your sight. It will take you. _Sheng-yen
The essence of Zen Buddhism consists in acquiring a new viewpoint of looking at life and things generally. By this I mean that if we want to get into the inmost life of Zen, we must forgo all our ordinary habits of thinking which control our everyday life, we must try to see if there is any other way of judging things, or rather if our ordinary way is always sufficient to give us the ultimate satisfaction of our spiritual needs. If we feel dissatisfied somehow with this life, if there is something in our ordinary way of living that deprives us of freedom in its most sanctified sense, we must endeavour to find a way somewhere which gives us a sense of finality and contenment. Zen proposes to do this for us and assures us of the acquirement of a new point of view in which life assumes a fresher, deeper, and more satisfying aspect. This acquirement, however, is really and naturally the greatest mental cataclysm one can go through with in life. It is no easy task, it is a kind of fiery baptism, and one has to go through the storm, the earthquake, the overthrowing of the mountains, and the breaking in pieces of the rocks. D.T. Suzuki _ Essays in Zen Buddhism.

Don't demand love, Be love. Don't demand respect, respect others. Don't demand change in others, Be the change. And all your sadness will disssapear in the light of love. Give and you shall receive. That is the greatest thing i have learned from your books, the law of karma. But the Ego demands, it complains, it is self important, it sees things from the small perspective, it doesnt see the bigger perspective. It has been the root of all my suffering. Greatness doesnt come from the muscles, greatness doesnt come from the brain. Greatness comes ONLY from the heart. Love is stronger than pride. Love you deepak for changing my life with your teachings and taking me to a higher level of consciousness.
