If ye realize the Emptiness of All Things, Compassion

will arise within your hearts;

If ye lose all differentiation

between yourselves and others, fit

to serve others ye will be;

And when in serving others

ye shall win success, then

shall ye meet with me;

And finding me, ye shall attain to Buddhahood.

[The Hymn of the Yogic Precepts of Milarepa,

W.Y.Evans-Wentz]

 

Peace is at the heart of all because

Avalokiteshvara-Kwannon, the mighty Bodhisattva,

Boundless Love, includes, regards, and dwells within

(without exception) every sentient being. The

perfection of the delicate wings of an insect, broken

in the passage of time, he regards -- and he himself

is both their perfection and their disintegration.

 

The Hero with a Thousand Faces

Joseph Campbell
