A haiku question

Is it wise to seek wisdom?

Ask someone who knows

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Seek and you shall find

ask and it will be given

those who are wise know

真理应该是唯一的宗教

In Dutch we say "Als de wijn is in de man, is de wijsheid in de kan".

"Uma árvore em flor fica despida no outono. A beleza transforma-se em feiúra, a juventude em velhice e o erro em virtude. Nada fica sempre igual e nada existe realmente. Portanto, as aparências e o vazio existem simultaneamente."

(Dalai Lama)

I wonder how long this oak tree has lived on the hillside.

 

I wonder what stories it would be able to tell, if only I had the sense to listen.

 

How many animals have encountered this tree over the years? birds, squirrels, gophers, coyotes, mountain lions, deer, turkeys, ...

 

I met this tree on a hike in the Ohlone Regional Wilderness, on the way up to Mission Peak.

"Stupidity is not knowing a little.

Nor is wanting to know a little. Stupidity is believing you know enough."

The Poavosa Wisdom in Elliott Bay, Seattle

"For she [WISDOM] is fairer than the sun and surpasses every constellation of the stars. Compared to light, she takes precedence; for that, indeed, night supplants, but wickedness prevails not over WISDOM." Wisdom 7:29-30

 

"WISDOM hastens to make herself known... whoever watches for her at dawn shall NOT be disappointed..." Wisdom 6:14

 

"WISDOM breathes life into her children and admonishes those who seek her. He who loves her loves life; those who seek her will be embraced by the Lord." ~ Sirach 4:11-12

 

“I sought WISDOM openly in my prayer.” Sirach 51:13

 

"The Lord granted him a stern struggle, that he might know that WISDOM is mightier than all else." Cf. Wisdom 10:12

 

"WISDOM is in fact no other thing than the LOVE which relishes, tastes and experiences, how sweet and delicious God is;" ~ St. Frances de Sales

MEDITATION

“…WISDOM is a person who “can do all things,” and who, “passing into holy souls from age to age . . . produces friends of God and prophets” (7:27). That sounds a lot like the Holy Spirit, doesn’t it? The truth is, what this ancient writer called “WISDOM,” we now understand to be God Himself dwelling in us through the Holy Spirit…

 

“…WISDOM doesn’t just come from God—WISDOM IS GOD always working to transform us and to mold us into His image. The Spirit teaches you and purifies you in so many ways, whether it’s through a Scripture reading that speaks to you, through the grace to handle a difficult situation, or through the example of saints in heaven and on earth. You can know and develop a relationship with this divine WISDOM, who is God Himself!…”

 

PRAYER

“Holy Spirit, WISDOM of God, lead me in Your ways today!”

 

Excerpt #meditation and #prayer from @wordamongus complete reflection @ www.wau.org - 11/16/23

 

PRAYER

"Lord Jesus, make me an instrument of Your Healing LOVE and Peace. Give me WISDOM and Courage to bring Your Healing LOVE and Saving Truth to those in need of Healing and Restoration." ~ www.dailyscripture.net

 

PRAYER

"Lord Jesus, You are the only foundation that can hold us up when trials and disaster threaten us. Give me the WISDOM, Foresight, and Strength of character I need to do what is Right and Good and to reject whatever is false and contrary to Your will. May I be a Doer of Your word and not a hearer only." ~ www.dailyscripture.net

"In order for us to progress smoothly and swiftly on our spiritual path, we need the help of two things - merit and wisdom - they are like the 2 wings of a bird, lacking one will cripple our progress.

We need to accumulate merit and wisdom with joyful effort and enthusiasm.

Merit without wisdom or wisdom without merit will not help."

(His Holiness Jigme Pema Wangchen, the Twelfth Gyalwang Drukpa)

 

This is the main door of the ancient palace in Leh, the capital of Ladakh in the Himalayan hills.

It was shot at sunset.

This palace was modelled on the Potala Palace in Lhasa (Tibet) and is the highest building in the world of his own times.

Leh has for centuries been an important stopover on trade routes along the Indus Valley between Tibet to the east, Kashmir to the west and also between India and China.

The main goods carried were salt, grain, pashm or cashmere wool, charas (cannabis resin) from the Tarim Basin, indigo, silk yarn and Banaras brocades.
