Bizah Says

Stories of Wisdom from Bizah, Student of Truth

Nature As Our Teacher

Jul 04, 2010

“Bizah, look at that mountain over there and see how the shaded areas reflect the clouds in the sky above. In this way, when we look at the mountain, we can also see the clouds.

“Yes, I can see that, Leela,” responded Bizah. “It’s just like how the outer world reflects back to us something about ourselves. Like the Master said, ‘As without, so within.’”

“And let’s not forget ‘as within, so without,’” added Leela. “Nature sure can remind us of principles of truth if we are open to its language.”

"Handsome is as handsome does" might be another manifestation of this idea.
