"When all is lost, when all is let……" — Robert Thurman
"When all is lost, when all is let go of, when all is abandoned what you are left with is an ocean of bliss. Â What you emerged with what you are is an ocean of bliss. Â Your cells and atoms and brain and bones and blood stream all of it is bliss."
