Two Kind of Sufferings…
There are two kinds of sufferings; the suffering that leads to more suffering and the suffering that leads to the end of suffering. If you are not willing to face the second kind of suffering, you will surely continue to experience the first.
—Ajahn Chah
There is pleasure when a sore is scratched,
But to be without sores is more pleasurable still.
Just so, there are pleasures in worldly desires,
But to be without desires is more pleasurable still.
—Nagarjuna
If you catch hold of the cat by its tail, it will bite you. The world will do the same. Live in the world like water on a lotus leaf.
—Yogaswami
