Blessing must arise from within your own mind. It is not something that comes from outside. When the positive qualities of your mind increase and the negativities decrease, that is what blessing means. The Tibetan word for blessing … means transforming into magnificent potential. Therefore, blessing refers to the development of virtuous qualities you did not previously have and the improvement of those good qualities you have already developed.

True Love
If we truly love ourselves, we would never harm another.
The Buddha
The Buddha turned away from self-mortifying practices, so in the South, I would say He has it "made in the shade" of the Boddhi Tree. ron
