Work, Outward and Inward

“The outward work can never be small if the inward one is great, and the outward work can never be great or good if the inward is small or of little worth. The inward work always includes in itself all size, all breadth and all length.”

Meister Eckhart

The Blooming of the Lotus

Thich Nhat Hanh Smiling to my body I breathe in Releasing the tensions in my body I breathe out. Breathing in I go back To the island within myself There are beautiful trees Within the island There are clear streams of water There are birds Sunshine, and fresh air Breathing out I feel safe I enjoy going back to my island Source: Unknown
