"Do not believe in what you have heard;
do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations;
do not believe in anything because it is rumored and spoken by many;
do not believe merely because a written statement of some old sage is produced;
do not believe in conjectures;
do not believe in that as truth to which you have become attached from habit;
do not believe merely the authority of your teachers and elders.
After observation and analysis, when it agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and gain of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.”

~ The Buddha

**" Maybe you are searching among the branches for what only appears in the roots."

~Rumi**

As we are searching for things in life, sometimes we are only touching the surface of what we desire. You search for the growth on the branches, the life that exists there... not knowling that the true health and state of those branches is fed by what is invisible to the eye. It's nourished by the roots underneath. Just like us, we may search for external happiness in a house, a mate, material things. But the true source of happiness comes from deep within us, the root within us. After every leaf falls off the tree in our life, what is left? The roots... are they rotten roots or are they connected and flowing. Even if those branches break and die, if the root system is healthy then a new tree will grow. Just as you see new trees growing from dead trees. Underneath the surface there is life. Look for the roots in your life. What really gives you happiness? What really sustains you from the inside when all else falls away?. 

"There is no coming to consciousness without pain**"
Carl Gustav Jung
