Thought for Today

[Mairwen]

Thought for the Day

Faith: Buddhism
Source: Sutta Nipata

Ajita asked: "What is it that smothers the world and makes it so hard to see? What is it that pollutes the world and seems to threaten it?"

The Buddha answered: "It is ignorance that smothers, and it is carelessness and greed that make it invisible. The hunger of craving pollutes the world, and the pain of suffering causes the greatest fear."

Perfect thought for the difficulty we are facing here.

I get "The Thought of the Day" from Beliefnet.com ~ and you're right ~~> this is highly appropriate for the difficulty we've been facing. ;)
