A Quote by Janette Turner Hospital

Followers of the Way [of Chán], if you want to get the kind of understanding that accords with the Dharma, never be misled by others.

If you meet an arhat, kill the arhat. If you meet your parents, kill your parents. If you meet your kinfolk, kill your kinfolk. Then for the first time you will gain emancipation, will not be entangled with things, will pass freely anywhere you wish to go.

I belong in America more than South Africa. I can't remember the feeling of living there anymore. It's like it was in another life. That's sad in a way. It is my country. It's where I grew up.

All my skinfolk ain't kinfolk.
Coral reefs are the backbone for the entire ocean. They are the nursery for the ocean. About a quarter of all marine life in the ocean spends part of its lifecycle on a coral reef. And there are about a billion or so people that depend on coral reefs for fish for their food, for protein.

Of course, I love everyone I meet. How could I fail to! Within everyone is the spark of God.

All people are my kinfolk - people to me are beautiful!
