Quotes Tagged “Calligraphy”

Ilchi Lee
“ The enlightened worry more about the problems of the world than about their own problems, and their longing for the well-being of all life grows deeper, making the suffering of all people, all creatures, and all things their own. This is a gift brought by enlightenment, which, at the same time, brings deep anguish. ”
― Ilchi Lee, Calligraphic Meditation for Everyday Happiness
