A better lifetime comes from not some karmic scale but from inner knowledge. Inner knowledge makes you happy. In other words, it is not as if someone is checking!

Death doesn't change anything. It just gives you a new location. The physical mind dissolves. But the overriding state of mind that you die in is the state of mind that you are born into.

I don't think you see your minds. I think you see your thoughts you see your desires you see your relatives, friends, lovers, enemies. I don't think you see your mind. You think of the mind as the clutter.

A walk in the woods can reveal many things, and it is a good time to practice transcendentalism. Look at a tree and realize it's not just a tree, its roots may go into the ground but it may also go into other worlds, other eternities.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Your own nature is pure, spotless, and pristine. Through association we drag ourselves down or we can raise ourselves up.

Lao Tsu always points a finger directly to us. He says we must begin with ourselves. It's impossible to bring order into the world unless we bring order into ourselves.
