A would be student approached the renowned Zen master, Artov Breshsky, and asked him if he could he teach him the way of Zen. The master replied, [b]"I have nothing of Zen to teach anyone, as there is no way of Zen, no...

Steve Marshall Yes, and perhaps while we are contemplating, "who am I", we might also contemplate, "Who is God". Even Einstein did that in his wanting to know the mind of God. "I want to know how God created this world. I am not interested in this or that phenomenon, in...

Steve Marshall The scientists find answers by observing, and testing, and thinking. We can do the same, as we need to come to our own understanding, as theories will never satisfy us, unless we connect to truth inwardly from careful awareness, and thinking awarely, while...

Does love fade with time? Or like Shakespeare's verses, true love defies time’s decay, remaining constant despite life’s trials? While passion may wane, love’s essence persists, much like Shakespeare’s immortal words- unshaken...

Steve Marshall @Deepizzaguy The Mayor was really worthy of being the Mayor with that act of aiding the man.

Steve Marshall @Shiva49 The righteous path will always be there, and so, it is up to each of us to try to point out its existence to others, and show them the benefits of following that path, rather than being riotous instead, and living a wanton life of misdeeds, towards...

I am sure most of you have your own version of defining love. In my opinion, love refers to the way we navigate the challenges of loving someone. Sometimes, we find ourselves unable to articulate our feelings in specific...

Steve Marshall @Shavkat Yes, a strong love for God, can get us past a lot of life's difficulties. Loving someone special here on the Earth is also a wonderful thing to experience too.

Steve Marshall @Shiva49 We all have our own individual role to play, so we should not stonker others, trying to be themselves, and play their role, to fulfill their own individual mission in life too.

Steve Marshall @Shiva49 Yes, it is said to thy own self be true, too. We need to think for ourselves, not have other's thoughts thrust into us, so that we then think that these thoughts are our own, or in other words, we become brainwashed by them.

Steve Marshall @Shiva49 Yes, most people are stuck fast in their ways, and usually think that their way is the only way, and the only right way too. They will not listen to anyone else. Yes, we can offer an opinion when asked too, I guess, but even then, if all I see are...

Steve Marshall @Shiva49 Yes, as you have said, before, the ordinary person just wants peace, and it is only the despots, the power hungry, and greedy ones, that want what they want at any cost. They care about little, no one, except for about themselves.

Steve Marshall @Shiva49 Yes, they will be recuperating for a while, as it was said, they would have lost a lot of muscle tissue, and bone mass strength. Maybe, one day, somebody will be able to create artificial gravity out there, so the body isn't so badly affected, by the...

Steve Marshall Yes, to curb the tongue, and spout forth with only words of wisdom, with no wasted words, is rather hard for most of us to do. Some will never change, but some become ready to change, and a master can pick when someone is ripe for change, as in my story...

Steve Marshall @Shiva49 The astronauts also know how hard it is to live in space, in a body, where souls can soar alone. The body wears out, but the soul never does.

Steve Marshall @Shiva49 Putin prefers power, over peace. He wants to go down in history, as a tough leader, I guess, while he wants to bask in /rake in, his spoils too.

Steve Marshall @Shiva49 Yes, the end is nearer now that the start; most of our lifetime is over, and yet, the one day at a time idea can still play its part, if we still live the day, as best we can, and leave the future to come when it may, with whatever it might choose to...

Steve Marshall @Shiva49 The Israelians do seem to be rather ruthless in their approach there, using tommy guns to try to kill the fleas, annoying them. With Putin, he probably knows Shakespeare too, and your quote would certainly do him proud. His talk with Trump was all...
