Quote of the day

An idea is growing in foreign policy circles in Washington. . . that there is no turning back. We are stuck in Iraq and Afghanistan for 25 to 40 years, we are embedded in our prideful unilateralism, and nothing can return us to more traditional American values and principles of action. The hubristic creators of this "inevitability" planned it this way. . . . Their failures in Iraq have not stopped the fanatic, power-hungry neoconservatives. . . . The hard-liners who dominate this administration. . . have led us to eternal conflict with Muslims.

Nirvana is this moment seen directly. There is no where else than here. The only gate is now. The only doorway is your own body and mind. There’s nowhere to go. There’s nothing else to be. There’s no destination. It’s not something to aim for in the afterlife. It’s simply the quality of this moment.
