More From Friedrich Schiller

The discipline of suffering, of great suffering- do you not know that only this discipline has created all enhancements of man so far? that tension of the soul in unhappiness which cultivates its strength, its shudders face to face with great ruin, its inventiveness and courage in enduring, preserving, interpreting, and exploiting suffering, and whatever has been granted to it of profundity, secret, mask, spirit, cunning, greatness- was it not granted to it through suffering, through the discipline of great suffering?

Do you want a sign that you're asleep? here it is: you're suffering. suffering is a sign that you're out of touch with the truth. suffering is given to you that you might open your eyes to the truth, that you might understand that there's falsehood somewhere, just as physical pain is given to you so you will understand that there is disease or illness somewhere. suffering occurs when you clash with reality. when your illusions clash with reality, when your falsehoods clash with truth, then you have suffering. otherwise there is no suffering.

She was beautiful, but not like those girls in the magazines. she was beautiful, for the way she thought. she was beautiful, for the sparkle in her eyes when she talked about something she loved. she was beautiful, for her ability to make other people smile, even if she was sad. no, she wasn't beautiful for something as temporary as her looks. she was beautiful, deep down to her soul. she is beautiful.

Do not avoid contact with suffering or close your eyes before suffering. do not lose awareness of the existence of suffering in the life of the world. find ways to be with those who are suffering by all means, including personal contact and visits, images, sounds. by such means, awaken yourself and others to the reality of suffering in the world.
Mean Eye Reality
It is not expensive to be beautiful. it takes only a little effort to be presentable and beautiful. but it takes some effort. and unfortunately people think of beauty as luxury, beauty as frivolity, ... or extravagance. beauty is a discipline, beauty is art, is harmony, in the ideological sense and in the theological sense, beauty is god and love made real. and the ultimate reach in this world is beauty.
Beautiful Art Real
Within the framework of the buddhist path, reflecting on suffering has tremendous importance because -realizing the nature of suffering, you will develop greater resolve to put an end to the causes of suffering and the unwholesome deeds which lead to suffering. and it will increase your enthusiasm for engaging in the wholesome actions and deeds which lead to happiness and joy.

Similar Quotes
The first beneficiary of compassion is always oneself. when compassion, or warmheartedness, arises in us and our focus shifts away from our own narrow self-interest, it is as if we open an inner door. it reduces fear, boosts confidence and brings us inner strength. by reducing distrust, it opens us to others and brings us a sense of connection to others, and sense of purpose and meaning in life.

Death and dying provide a meeting-point between the tibetan buddhist and modern scientific traditions. i believe both have a great deal to contribute to each other on the level of understanding and of practical benefit.
Buddhist Believe Understanding
Love is reckless; not reason. reason seeks a profit. loves comes on strong, consuming herself unabashed. yet in the midst of suffering love proceeds like a millstone, hard surfaced and straight forward. having died to self interest, she risks everything and asks for nothing. love gambles away every gift god bestows. without cause god gave us being; without cause give it back again. gambling yourself away is beyond any religion. religion seeks grace and favor, but those who gamble these away are god's favorites, for they neither put god to the test nor knock at the door of gain and loss.
Strong Buddhist Loss
In buddhism, both learning and practice are extremely important, and they must go hand in hand. without knowledge, just to rely on faith, faith, and more faith is good but not sufficient. so the intellectual part must definitely be present. at the same time, strictly intellectual development without faith and practice, is also of no use. it is necessary to combine knowledge born from study with sincere practice in our daily lives. these two must go together.
