“Its waters yawn with the same fathomless intensity as Rakshas Tal, but the peacock blue has deepened to a well of pure cobalt, edged by snow mountains that overlook it from one horizon to another.”
Colin Thubron, To a Mountain in Tibet

“Achala, worrying and scheming about your next life, before you have even completed this one, is not a good practice." Rinpoche”
Daniel Prokop, Taking It With You: Everybody knows you can't take anything with you when you die... almost everybody.
