The Immeasurable Heart

11/20/2017

 
Picture

Because the mind has no beginning or end, no form, it has no limitations. There are no limits upon our capacity for love and compassion.  Boundless and immeasurable, whatever the scope of our love yesterday, we can love more deeply today. Whatever level of compassion we felt capable of this morning, with practice and a firm resolve, we can be more compassionate tomorrow. However fully we can offer forgiveness to ourselves and others in this moment, we can summon even greater, the next.

And that is what the world needs, that is what we need. More loving. More compassionate.  More kindness.  More being from our heart.  The only limits are the ones we placed on ourselves, long before we learned just how capable and how limitless we really are.

The goal of every act is happiness itself,
Though, even with great wealth, it’s rarely found.
So take your pleasure in the excellence of others.
Let them be a heartfelt joy to you.
