Spreading this thing called love

Hi.

One evening by the fire Monkey spoke to the animals:

“The best way to get love is to spread love. 
Good actions spread like rings on the water, and sometimes they bounce back.”

Prayer

Hi.

One evening by the fire, Monkey spoke to the animals:

"Be wary of prayer.
Prayer can sometimes be just another mental noise or expression of a rigid beliefsystem based on blind faith.
It is easy to misuse, but this does not mean we should not pray as prayer can be a very powerful tool.
Just remember to surrender all concepts, including the idea of a higher power that will either reject or accept the prayer."

A different perspective

Hi.

One evening by the fire Monkey spoke to the animals:

“It is good to view things from a different perspective.
Our views get nuanced and reevaluated, even reinvigorated. 

That is one of the reasons the Buddha Allegedly said “be a light unto yourself”.”
