Always the same

It is chastening to realise that human beings evolve so slowly.
The following quotation is from a 2nd century BC philosopher (Patanjali)

When you are inspired by some great purpose,
some extraordinary project, all your thoughts
break their bonds; your mind transcends
limitations, your consciousness expands in
every direction, and you find yourself in a new,
great and wonderful world. Dormant forces,
faculties and talents become alive, and you
discover yourself to be a greater person by far
than you ever dreamed yourself to be.

    Fabulous quote, Freda. It doesn’t chasten me so much as inspire me to know that for at least 2200 years some people have known this.

    Best,
