The Zen Playground

Whether an action is good, bad, or neutral depends principally upon the intention that motivates it. Good actions come from good intentions, bad actions come from bad intentions, and neutral actions come from neutral intentions. Good, or virtuous, actions are the main cause of rebirth in the higher realms, and of future happiness, while bad, or non-virtuous, actions are the main cause of rebirth in the lower realms, and of future suffering.

Geshe Kelsang Gyatso - “Introduction to Buddhism” (via dancingdakini)

Whatever you vibrate, you manifest and attract to your Self. So, you work on healing your Self in order to manifest tranquility around you. You become tranquility. If there is conflict living within you, you cannot live in a world of tranquility. The world mirrors back the condition of your love and of your intent. If the world that you are living in is not a world that is at peace, then you have to discover peace within your Being. The shaman no longer searches for meaning in life, but brings meaning to every situation. The shaman stops searching for truth and brings truth to every encounter. You do not search for the ideal partner, you become the ideal partner. Then the ideal partner discovers you. This is an active practice focused on interdimensional healing.
