Guest guest Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 " One has to be a light to oneself. This light is the law. There is no other law. All the other laws are made by thought and so are fragmentary and contradictory. To be a light to oneself is not to follow the light of another, however reasonable, logical, historical, and however convincing. You cannot be a light to yourself if you are in the dark shadows of authority, of dogma, of conclusion. " (J Krishnamurti) -L- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
