Knowing others is wisdom. Knowing yourself is enlightenment.
The ability to figure out others is easy compared to figuring out yourself.
The hardest person to master is ones’ self because it can be extremely difficult at times to be 100% honest with yourself.
As well as enjoying it and growing from it, life is about mastering yourself. It takes a lifetime and even than very few people achieve self mastery.
It takes complete dedication in this pursuit but a worthwhile one.
Master Jonathan Field
To find your way, you must close your eyes and walk in the dark.
Sometimes what you see is not really what is there.
Your eyes may mislead you there be open to listening to your other senses and feelings.
What you may not see with your eyes you may feel with your hands and feet.
What your eyes cannot see you may hear with your ears.
What your eyes don’t catch, your nose picks up the scent.
What your eyes cannot conceive, you may taste.
Complete darkness may tell more than total light can ever.
Master Jonathan Field
He who conquers himself is mighty
He who is able to conquers others is strong
But conquering ones’ self is a far greater accomplishment that involves much greater amount of time and effort
Conquering ones’ self is a life long pursuit of trials and errors but of ultimately learning about yourself
Master Jonathan Field
The quieter you become, the more you are able to hear
Too much is lost through the noise that we create
Sometimes silence brings us more usefulness than our own chatter
Master Jonathan Field
“The bird of paradise alights only on the hand that does not grasp.”
No one likes a person that is too controlling or too opinionated.
Rather be in control of yourself and have valid view points.
