Jake sent me this when I sent him my roadmap

Apr. 11th, 2008 | 09:07 am

From the Buddha: the "Five Remembrances" we should recall each day. (taken from Thich Nhat Hahn's The Heart of Buddha's Teachings)

1) I am of the nature to grow old. There is no way to escape growing old.

2) I am of the nature to have ill health. There is no way to escape having ill-health

3) I am of the nature to die. There is no way to avoid Death.

4) All that is dear to me and everyone I love are of the nature to change. There is no way to avoid being separated from them.

5) My actions are my only true belongings. I cannot escape the consequences of my actions. My actions are the ground on which I stand.
