Was recently reminded of a favorite passage of mine from Lila, by Robert Pirsig (Thanks Ronen!) and thought I would share…
“But if you manage to absorb it and not pass it on, that’s the highest moral conduct of all. That really advances everything, not just you … some of the great moral figures of history … Christ, Lincoln, Gandhi … that’s what they were really involved in, the cleansing of the world through the absorption of karmic garbage. They didn’t pass it on.”
Thank you for passing Pirsig on 🙂 and for the mention.
