To forget oneself is to be enlightened.
To let go of your ego.
To forget all you have learned to allow new ideas and concepts to enter.
To forget your past and enter your future.
To let go of your habits so you may form new ones.
To let go of your fears so you can overcome.
To grow without limitation.

“Have a heart of a small child”
“Whenever I feel nothing matters, I look at sleeping children and recall my original purpose”
“When things are in total disarray, play with joyful children”
If we all would be more friendly, loving, and imaginative like small children, the world would be a far better place.

“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.

“How can the drop of water know themselves to be a river?”
As individuals the drops may not seem like much but as a whole river they appear powerful.
A single snow flake is so beautiful in design but a blizzard can cause so much chaos.

” When the day gets long and contentious, I hold fast to my breath as a tiller and take each wave as it comes. “
This refers to patience. Throughout each day we are all tested with lots of contentious situations. Best to stay calm as best we can and approach each situation with a clear mind. This takes practice. And some circumstances are harder to stay calm than others but it is worth a shot. Keep practicing.
