Ocean of Dharma Quotes of the Week
October 8, 2008
THE WARRIOR'S WEAPONS
If victory is the notion of no enemy, then the whole world is a
friend. That seems to be the warrior's philosophy. The true warrior
is not like somebody carrying a sword and looking behind his own
shadow, in case somebody is lurking there. That is the setting-sun
warrior's point of view, which is an expression of cowardice. The
true warrior always has a weapon, in any case....The definition of
warriorship is fearlessness and gentleness. Those are your weapons.
The genuine warrior becomes truly gentle because there is no enemy at all.
From the manuscript of CONQUERING FEAR: THE HEART OF SHAMBHALA.
Forthcoming from Shambhala Publications in 2009.
