ive been thinking about this lately.....is love something that is only within the being, and not within the doing?
i believe this was from quo
"if you are one who wishes to offer the gifts of consciousness to others, it depends not on the speeches. Rather, live that which you wish to teach and in your inarticulate being, bursting with love, there is that which shall speak to those whom you wish to aid. Do not be seduced by the cleverness of the intellect, because you shall never talk someone into the Kingdom of Heaven. Be consciousness, share consciousness, let silence grow with your relationship as it will. And trust that that which is within you shall touch and teach in ways that are too deep for words but are ever so much more powerful."
reminds me of ghandi's 'be the change'
perhaps it really doesnt matter what we think, say, or do. it matters what we are. of course, we all have to do certain things to maintain in this material world. i hate to reference it so much, but i like chapter 3 from bhagavad gita when it comes to balancing doing/being.... karma yoga - doing work in the world but staying unattached.
the gita says that we are not the doer.......so who or what is it that is doing?
cheers
