Quotes by Richard Power  (?)

“The life of human beings is suspended between the poles of heaven and earth. Let us retain within us the width of heaven, but let us not forget the earth that bears us. Earth and heaven are the symbols of the finite and the infinite, in which we share equally. It is not our task to choose between these two poles of our existence or to give up the one for the sake of the other, but to recognize their mutual interdependence and to integrate them into our very being.”
Richard Power, The Lost Teachings of Lama Govinda: Living Wisdom from a Modern Tibetan Master
