The mind creates division
And division is another name
For devastating pain.
The heart creates oneness,
And oneness is another name
For spontaneous joy.
Sri Chinmoy
Go to the truth beyond the mind. Love is the bridge.

Art by Navitrolla : "How We Could Bridge the Gap"
Hi Hille, Beautiful quotes and rare images. Where did you find the images? That giraffe is certainly bridging the gap! LOL!
ReplyDeleteMuch metta!
Lol, Carrie- yes he is! Navitrolla is the most popular Estonian artist. I like him, he says himself that he has been influenced a lot by Zen Buddhist style of painting. Much metta!
ReplyDeleteAmen! I love this an want to bind this around my heart for those time I allow my mind to attempt to burn bridges!
ReplyDeleteThanks again Hille!
Funny! And the other funny thing is that it looks like you can bridge the gap in the distance, but in the distance the gap is the same, just an illusion that "later" it will be easier, lol.
ReplyDeleteThe only distance is created by your thinking, in reality there is none. :)
ReplyDeleteWell said! Now, I just noticed the sun changed colour between the two photos. The giraffe fills the gaps of emptiness in the sun too.... so emptiness too is filled... with everything?
