EP - Ethics Particle
Gold Meritorious Patron
Somos el Barco
An acknowledgement from Panda is like gold :wink2: and I say the same. EP (aka Mike Horton)
From "Memorial Peace and understanding Service":
"May the Infinite Light of Wisdom and Compassion so shine within us that the errors and vanities of self may be dispelled; so shall we understand the changing nature of existence and awaken into spiritual peace.
To all Enlightened Ones...who are present in their teachings, we pledge our loyalty and devotion. We dedicate our lives to the way of life they have laid down for us to walk. We resolve to follow their example and labor earnestly for the enlightenment and welfare of all mankind."
Gatha:Somos El Barco
Chorus:
Somos el barco, somos el mar Yo navego en ti, tu navegas en mi. We are the boat, we are the sea I sail in you, you sail in me.
Verse 1
The stream sings it to the river, the river sings it to the sea The sea sings it to the boat that carries you and me.
Verse 2
Now the boat we are sailing in was built by many hands And the sea we are sailing on, it touches many sands.
Verse 3
So with our hopes we raise the sails to face the winds once more And with our hearts we chart the waters never sailed before.
Closing: Boundless Goodwill
All: Let us cultivate boundless goodwill.
Let none deceive another, or despise any being in any state.
Let none in anger or ill-will wish another harm.
Even as a mother watches over her child,
so with boundless mind
should one cherish all living beings,
Radiating friendliness over the whole world,
Above, below, and all around, without limit.
-Metta Sutta
Yes and please keep doing it too, Tory, it works.
