I am aware of those truth for many years and I do listen to and think about the teachings of the Dalai Lama . I have learned over the years that there are many paths that lead to the same goal, and there are some paths that lead away from that goal. The idea behind sharing spirituality is to use the stones of another's path to polish your own. That doesn't mean jump and change paths. the four great truths of suffering, I am sorry Orn to me They are but common knowledge, though that does not diminish their value. I have read to many writing of what people call spiritual leaders, only to find them wanting and impressed with little or nothing. The teaching they want to pass on would only leave me starving in the desert. I was born to and raised in a culture that |I find my spiritual nourishment in. Wheb you reach the pinnacle of enlightenment. You are not to sit there and bask in past glory ,, but you are to jump and begin the climb again. That is my culture where I find for myself thriving in spiritual development. As i write tis I look down and read my coffee cup --- : Remember Yesterday, Dream about tomorrow, but Live Today Allan
