Four Noble Truths:
Dukkha: Suffering is everywhere
Samudaya: There is a cause of suffering, which is attachment or misplaced desire (tanha) rooted in ignorance.
Nirodha: There is an end of suffering, which is Nirvana (the possibility of liberation exists for everyone).
Maggo: There is a path that leads out of suffering, known as the Noble Eightfold Path (right view, right thought, right speech, right conduct, right vocation, right effort, right attention and right concentration).

I will teach you the Truth and the Path leading to the Truth.
One is one’s own refuge, who else could be the refuge? ..The wise man makes an island of himself that no flood can overwhelm.
Never by hatred is hatred appeased, but it is appeased by kindness. This is an eternal truth.
O Brahmana, it is just like a mountain river, flowing far and swift, taking everything along with it; there is no moment, no instant, no second when it stops flowing, but it goes on flowing and continuing. So Brahmana, is human life, like a mountain river.
Wherefore, brethren, thus must ye train yourselves : Liberation of the will through love will develop, we will often practice it, we will make it vehicle and base, take our stand upon it, store it up, thoroughly set it going.

Always be true to Yourself...
Never try to hide who You are...
The only shame is to have a shame...
Always question what other people tell You...
Always stand up for what You believe in...
Never regret the past...It's a waste of time..
There's a reason for everything; every mistake, every moment of weakness, every terrible thing that has happened to You...
Grow from it!
The only way You can ever get the respect of others is when You show them that You respect Yourself...
And most importantly, do Your things and never apologize for being You!!
A human being is a part of a whole,
called by us 'universe',
a part limited in tame and space.
He experiences himself,
his thoughts and feelings
as something separated from the rest...
a kind of optical delusion
of his consciousness.
This delusion is a kind of prison for us,
restricting us to our personal desires
and to affection for a few
people nearest to us.
Our task must be to free ourselves
from this prison by widening our circle of compassion
to embrace all living creatures
and the whole of nature in its beauty.

Each of us must learn the journey well, yet it is endless in offering us lessons unending. Each lesson allow us to strengthen ourselves.
However those lessons are not just for us, but indeed, to make and build a better world. In all we do, whatever we do offer everything, with love.
Thank you for your sharing.

hehe kein Problem, das kann ja passieren, ich bin da nicht so empfindlich ;)
Ich wünsche Dir auch ein wunderschönes Wochenende! Klingt gut, was Du vorhast!
Aber ist es bei Euch nicht so kalt geworden? Hier hat es sich total abgekühlt, der Herbst / Winter kündigt sich an. Bei Euch muss es ja eigentlich noch ein bisschen kälter sein.
Ich werde das Wochenende auf jeden Fall auch geniessen. Freu mich auf ein bisschen Ruhe und Erholung!
Ich hoffe, es geht Dir gut!
Liebe Grüße,

Dear Oliver, I know, I just stumbled upon you once and now again.... And (ofcourse in my case as art and anything with beauty inside I love) I took some of your nice pictures.... Can not give you much to choose from in return as I have a new p.c. and not yet my back-up on it. I lost my accents above the numbers: all mixed up, stupid little problem, makes my English read like I cannot do it, but the message is still good: I did already pick the pictures of one of my favorite p.c./painting female artists (furiae is the name she uses and you are the first one ever I tell that!!!) so here she is, looks not very special.... But oh does she have nice paintings.... And to you my love and heart for all that matters.... Blessed be!!! Mirte.What a beautiful page you have !

Dear Oliver, just a short stopping by to say, that I saw this page of you (you'll probably have more, but I can't find my way around that easily yet....) and if you like, you can see some Patty Smith video's (2 ) at "my place" as in my page... (excuse me for letting you wait this long and I was just kidding last sentence...) Blessed be and may-be untill next time? Moondeva. (Mirte)
