If you want peace, then the first requirement is to drop all ambition. Unless you drop ambition you cannot be at ease, at peace, you cannot be relaxed.
Rajneesh

Rajneesh

Rajneesh
Jesus moved in a very poor world. People were seeking their own solutions. Many were helped - not that Jesus was helping - they were helped. And Jesus says again and again: It is your faith that has healed you. When you have faith, compassion can pour into you. When you have faith, you are open to compassion.
Rajneesh
