"In the autumn and winter, water freezes into ice. When the warm breezes of spring come, the rigidity is dissolved, and the elements that have been dispersed into ice floes are reunited."It is the same with the hearts of people. Through hardness and selfishness the heart grows rigid, and this rigidity leads to separation from others. Egotism and cupidity isolate us.
"Therefore, our hearts must be seized by devout emotion. We must be shaken by a spiritual awe in the face of eternity - stirred with an intuition of the oneness of all living beings and united through this feeling of fellowship."
- "Huan," the 59rd hexagram of the I Ching
Happy Valentines Day, everyone.
