Thoughts for today
People should think less about what they ought to do and more about what they ought to be. If only their being were good, their works would shine forth brightly.
Do not imagine that you can ground your salvation upon actions; it must rest on what you are.
--- Meister Eckhart

Mave,
Thought provoking.. However there's apparent contradiction there, more in line to Zen Phylosophy than Western mind..
