If you think someone else is enlightened,
you think way too much.
If you believe you're enlightened and
others are not, you're fast asleep.
If you 'spiritually' compare yourself with
anyone else, inferiority and superiority are born, arrogance and jealousy
arise, and these are the seeds of all violence.
Violence ends when comparison ends, and we
embrace each other exactly as we are, and our imperfections are seen through
the eyes of perfection, and we step down from our thrones and out of our
unworthiness.
Jeff Foster
