13/30

when that happens, this happens.
- buddha, 500 bc


today's focus of celebration: karma

cause and effect. seeds we've sown. this and that. such a very elementary and logical concept, and yet we all do things everyday that set in motion a set of circumstances. perhaps now, maybe later. but always. it's the law.

" it's the cause of causes", says geshe michael roach.

something below the surface, where the seeds are planted deep in the soil.
it begins with how we serve others, and how that serves our selves.
generosity. service. intention.

i can now more clearly see the same patterns that trip me
and, thankfully, the light emerging from the intentions i set on January 8, 2007.
step by step. either way. make it forward go.
