Whether we remain the ash or become the phoenix is up to us.
Ming-Dao DengThe idea that each of us can be directly spiritual is radical. Most religions are based not on teaching adherents to be directly spiritual, but in persuading them to trust in the intercession of ministers or priests.

If we want to see Tao, we need only open our eyes and trust what we see.
