It is not the simple statement of facts that ushers in freedom it is the constant repetition of them that has this liberating effect. Tolerance is the result not of enlightenment but of boredom.

In Australia they set up a special fund to kick films off. It was quite an enlightened sort of move. You could go to this government bureau with scripts and and get finance for films.

To enjoy good health to bring true happiness to one's family to bring peace to all one must first discipline and control one's own mind. If a man can control his mind he can find the way to Enlightenment and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him.

Succeeding is not really a life experience that does that much good. Failing is a much more sobering and enlightening experience.

Many spiritual teachers - in Buddhism in Islam - have talked about first-hand experience of the world as an important part of the path to wisdom to enlightenment.

Every step and every movement of the multitude even in what are termed enlightened ages are made with equal blindness to the future and nations stumble upon establishments which are indeed the result of human action but not the execution of any human design.

There is no fundamental difference between the preparation for death and the practice of dying and spiritual practice leading to enlightenment.
