Enlightenment


I'm one who doesn't believe that spirituality and religion are necessarily mutually exclusive. This quote from "Why Walk When You Can Fly" by Isha (New World Library, 2008) hit home with me.
We often compromise our truth by playing small in order to make others feel better about themselves. We don't do what we really want to because we are afraid of losing approval, but enlightenment never compromises its own greatness.
My actor friend, Billy, had this quote at the bottom of his emails, which is another version of the same message:
"Your playing small does not serve the world."
