Our kammic acts not only shape the world for others, but also shape our personal fortune. Good deeds work to our own benefit as well as to the benefit of others. Bad deeds work against our own benefit as well as against the benefit of others.

If you don’t find a teacher soon, you’ll live this life in vain. It’s true, you have buddhanature. But without the help of a teacher, you’ll never know it. Only one person in a million becomes enlightened without a teacher’s help. - Bodhidharma

We live in a mysterious world full of uncertainties. And we regularly make assumptions to explain them. Generally our explanations are guesses. We are interpretation machines, and this process of labeling and detaching is efficient but not accurate. We are the unreliable narrators of our own experience. - Rick Rubin

America needs a practical, enjoyable system of physical culture that will keep us at the highest peak of health and that will prevent the negative conditions which come with neglect and incorrect health habits. We need a method of health preservation which can be practiced at home on our own time and with an absolute minimum of expense. Those who have practiced Yoga for even a few weeks know that only Yoga satisfies those needs. Yoga is complete because it reaches and works out every part of the human organism, internal as well as external. It is perfectly efficient because it always works. There is no hit or miss. It is an exact science.

Religion is based primarily and mainly upon fear. It is partly the terror of the unknown and partly the wish to feel that you have a kind of elder brother who will stand by you in all your troubles. Fear is the basis of the whole thing – fear of the mysterious, fear of defeat, fear of death. Fear is the parent of cruelty, and the parent of cruelty, and therefor it is no wonder if cruelty and religion go hand in hand. - Bertrand Russell
