"Sonam Kazi spoke of acting with no desire to gain, even spiritual - whether merit or attainment. A white butterfly appears in the sun, then vanishes again. Another passes in the distance. No gain for them -- or for me." Thomas Merton, from his "Asian Journal", p.85
I spent a lot of time and energy on what divides us: Catholics from Atheists from Buddhists from Jews and the likes. Now I find delight in what brings us together again.
