Early Morning Buddhist Inspiration - 3/2/2006


One day a young Buddhist on his journey home, came to the banks of a wide river. Staring hopelessly at the great obstacle in front of him, he pondered for hours on just how to cross such a wide barrier. Just as he was about to give up his pursuit to continue his journey he saw a great teacher on the other side of the river. The young Buddhist yells over to the teacher, "Oh wise one, can you tell me how to get to the other side of this river?" The teacher ponders for a moment looks up and down the river and yells back, "My son, you are on the other side."

Hi Ryan!! My name is Terra Skye. You send me an email every morning and I love it. So is this your website? I was also wondering if you practice Buddhism or if you just sell the things on your site. I just recently discovered Buddhism and I love what I've learned so far. It makes more since than anything I've ever heard. Well I just wanted to say thanks for the emails, please don't stop. Have a peaceful day....
