“Filsuf Tiongkok menggambarkan kehidupan laksana sungai panjang yang mengalir tanpa henti. Kita, manusia adalah sosok-sosok penumpang yang naik kapal di satu titik, turut berlayar, lalu turun di tempat lain. Beberapa penumpang turun, beberapa penumpang naik. Sungai terus mengalir, kapal terus berlayar, penumpang datang dan pergi. Demikianlah manusia-manusia di tepian sungai abadi Amu Darya ini, datang dan pergi, dalam berbagai wujud rupa, bangsa, agama, dan kebanggaan, dan semuanya, tanpa kecuali, adalah makhluk fana”

“The late British-born philosopher Alan Watts, in one of his wonderful lectures on eastern philosophy, used this analogy: "If I draw a circle, most people, when asked what I have drawn, will say I have drawn a circle or a disc, or a ball. Very few people will say I've drawn a hole in the wall, because most people think of the inside first, rather than thinking of the outside. But actually these two sides go together--you cannot have what is 'in here' unless you have what is out there.' "
In other words, where we are is vital to who we are.”
