All things are made of one essence, yet things are different according to the forms which they assume under different impressions. As they form themselves so they act, and as they act so they are.

✨ To meditate on today
According to The Gospel of Buddha, the Buddha explains to his disciple Kassapa that everything is made of the same essence, like different vessels shaped from the same clay, and that each being becomes what its deeds make of it. Today, choose an action that shapes in you what you want to become, more patient, gentler or more attentive, and carry it out several times during the day.
