Quotes by Xuemo. (?)

“True faith is unconditional.
It is simply the reverence and aspiration towards a certain kind of spirit.
Faith is not even the means of obtaining reward.
Faith itself is the end.”
― Xue Mo

“EACH of US

has four wives: the fourth wife is body, who must leave despite her master’s infinite care; the third wife is fame and fortune, which will belong to others after its owner dies; the second wife is friends and relatives, who only can send you as far as the graveyard; the first wife is the soul, who will not leave you through life or death, even though sometimes you ignore her.

Have you ignored your first wife?”
― Xue Mo

“In this world of coloured lights and intoxicating drinks, song, dance, TV, internet and infinite new toys occupy almost all of everyone’s time. People almost do not have time or interest left for spiritual matters. They do not think about death.”
― Xue Mo
