I tell you verily my child that God does not need our prayers, nor does Buhda get holier from our meditative time. It is us who need to do the acts of centering and calming the churning mind through meditation and prayer in order to go on living. Living with a sense of purpose and awareness, not as animals who eat, sleep, have sex, and die.
I am really trying to keep my usual positive and hopeful attitude towards our humanity and mankind in general, but recent events have brought the old anger back in me which is really frustration and anxiety about Politicians and the money mongers of the world about which I can take no real action of any significance. I see hunger and destitude in the masses of this U.S. of A, the richest country on earth, I see the very weak and the elderly, the homeless and the hard working class suffer while the political will of some nuts is runnning amock! God help me to accept what I can change and that over which I have no control, and please God give me the wisdom to know the difference. It is nothing new, just different land, different time in the history of the ignorant man and the greed of the fools!
