Food for Thought #34

~ By Buddhadāsa Bhikkhu ~

Those in search of spiritual happiness should be fair to others saying, "we are a balancing force holding you back from running into the fire too quickly. If we were to become like you, you can be sure that the world would disintegrate even faster - this is why we have decided to stay the course of our vocation."
