“All beings are subject to intense and compulsive karmas (conditioning), therefore I take very little personally.”
“I am subject to intense and compulsive karmas (conditioning), therefore I am very careful about my judgements and reactions.”
“If you are only happy
when others are happy,
you will never be truly happy,
because others do not remain fixed,
but sit in their own power.
Be happy.
Be the container, not the contained;
the source, not the destination.
Allow others to be happy
and allow others to be unhappy,
like so many waves
in your vast ocean,
ever-changing.
By leaving others unchanged,
by loving and honouring the place where they are,
you may just change them,
forever.
You may just remind them
of the closeness
of their own happiness.”
– Jeff Foster
