[atlarge-discuss] atlarge-discuss] Off Topic: But, In Keeping With The Current Situations...

["Micheal Sherrill" <micheal@beethoven.com>]

One Nature, perfect and pervading, circulates in all natures.
One Reality, all comprehensive, contains within itself all realities.
The one moon is reflected wherever there is a sheet of water,
And all the moons in all the waters are embraced within the one moon;
The embodied Truth of all the Buddhas enters into my own being,
And my own being is found in union with theirs.

-— Yoka Daishi (665 - 713)--

Albert Einstein:

"The most beautiful emotion we can experience is the mystical. It is the
power of all true art and science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead. To know that what is impenetrable to us really exists, manifesting itself as the highest wisdom and the most radiant beauty, which our dull faculties can comprehend only in their most primitive forms-this knowledge, this feeling, is at the center of true religiousness. In this sense, and in this sense only, I belong to the rank of devoutly religious men."


 "The most beautiful emotion we can experience is the mystical...."


Be well...
