"A human being is a part of the whole called by us the Universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us.
Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty."
— Albert Einstein
Nature chose for a tool, not the earthquake or lightning to rend and split asunder, not the stormy torrent or eroding rain, but the tender snow-flowers noiselessly falling through unnumbered centuries, the offspring of the sun and sea.
―John Muir, The Sierra Nevada
Tea is a work of art and needs a master hand to bring out its noblest qualities. We have good and bad tea, as we have good and bad paintings—generally the latter.
There is no single recipe for making the perfect tea, as there are no rules for producing a Titian or a Sesson. Each preparation of the leaves has its individuality, its special affinity with water and heat, its own method of telling a story. The truly beautiful must always be in it.
How much do we not suffer through the constant failure of society to recognise this simple and fundamental law of art and life; Lichilai, a Sung poet, has sadly remarked that there were three most deplorable things in the world: the spoiling of fine youths through false education, the degradation of fine art through vulgar admiration, and the utter waste of fine tea through incompetent manipulation.
—Okakura Kakuzō, The Book of Tea
“The rabbits mingled naturally. They did not talk for talking's sake, in the artificial manner that human beings - and sometimes even their dogs and cats - do. But this did not mean that they were not communicating; merely that they were not communicating by talking.”
― Richard Adams, Watership Down
"The truth is, your lifestyle is not defined by the things you live with, but by the way you live and the happiness it brings to yourself and others." 🌟 🌈 ⋅
Culturally we tend to associate external accomplishment with internal accomplishment—when a person has achieved something worthy of recognition we think it’s because they have persevered and overcome a great inner struggle. Sometimes this is the case but not always; often an external achievement comes out of avoidance, of doing anything and everything possible not to have to face the real struggle. We drown ourselves in work to distract us from problems in our love lives. We try to outdo our rivals to escape our jealousy.
When we have exterior accomplishment without the interior, that’s when, I think, we most strongly feel like we are imposters. Like, Okay, we’ve done this great praiseworthy thing so how come we still aren't a better human being? Perhaps it's because when we ignore the internal challenges, we tend to act from fear rather than in spite of it. When we do the former, even if we succeed outwardly, we fail inwardly.
That vague and oft-repeated idea—being true to yourself—takes on a much more precise meaning. Being true to yourself is facing the interior challenges; taking the shame and struggle given to you by birth and circumstance, and making it your life’s work.
