"Take hold of your own life.
See that the whole existence is celebrating.
These trees are not serious, these birds are not serious.
The rivers and the oceans are wild,
and everywhere there is fun,
everywhere there is joy and delight.
Watch existence,
listen to the existence and become part of it."
~Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh

I love your website and often share it with others. Yours in faith, Paula
Thanks for the link Paula. I think you are right about the man ~ his opposition to Gandhi makes him less than appealing to me. However the quote works well as a statement. I'm glad that you like the blog :^)
