Dumnezeu mergea pe drum cu o palarie rosie intr-o parte si albastra in cealalta. Se mai si intoarce din drum, mai si intoarce palaria, multi oameni il vad, se intorc in sat si incep sa se certe. Toti vazusera acelasi lucru , dar ii interesa palaria.
Nu sunt "crestin". Dumnezeu e tot ce este, e in toate (cum inteleg eu). Si noi suntem. Cand il vezi, il crezi separat, undeva "sus", iti permiti orice. Nimic nu mai e "sfant". Ce vrea sa spuna povestea de mai sus: oamenii incearca sa defineasca intr-un mod in care sa poata intelege - cea ce nu poate fi definit. Nu poate fi explicat, nu se poate scrie un manual de instructiuni. Se agata de forme, creeaza religii si pierd sensul.
Poate de aici invatatura "a nu-ti face chip cioplit". Sau "nu te uita la degetul care arata spre Luna", nu mai vezi Luna

One day Mara, the Buddhist god of ignorance and evil, was traveling through the villages of India with his attendants. He saw a man doing walking meditation whose face was lit up in wonder. The man had just discovered something on the ground in front of him. Mara’s attendants asked what that was and Mara replied, “A piece of truth.”
“Doesn’t this bother you when someone finds a piece of the truth, O evil one?” his attendants asked.
“No,” Mara replied. “Right after this they usually make a belief out of it.
Ceva ce nu poate fi explicat, poate fi doar simtit, inteles - dar numai personal. Altfel s-ar scrie manuale de instructiuni foarte clare pentru toti. Oamenii pot exprima cateodata ceva prin arta. Cei care exprima foarte bine - ii numim "genii".
Cuvintele ne limiteaza. Gandirea in cuvinte de asemenea.
"Cine stie nu spune, cine nu stie spune". "Toata lumea stie cum miroase un trandafir, cine poate sa o spuna in cuvinte ?"

The first peace, which is the most important, is that which comes within the souls of people when they realize their relationship, their oneness, with the universe and all its powers, and when they realize that at the center of the universe dwells Wakan-Tanka , and that this center is really everywhere, it is within each of us.
