Wisdom from the World
Words to live by from wise teachers from many paths
There are many teachers with words of wisdom. Bob Duggan, the founder of Tai Sophia Institute where I trained; the two Western doctors who write the"You" column that runs in many papers, and many others. I've got a huge collection of words of wisdom that I keep. I've listed a few here.
