Sogyal Rinpoche, world-renowned Tibetan Buddhist teacher, also the author of the highly acclaimed The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying says:
“There are different species of laziness: Eastern and Western. The Eastern style is like the one practised in India. It consists of hanging out all day in the sun, doing nothing, avoiding any kind of work or useful activity, drinking cups of tea, listening to Hindi film music blaring on the radio, and gossiping with friends. Western laziness is quite different. It consists of cramming our lives with compulsive activity, so there is no time at all to confront the real issues. This form of laziness lies in our failure to choose worthwhile applications for our energy.” (via swissmiss, photo via sine qua non)
Speaking of which, we are going to embrace Eastern style of laziness by going kite-flying at Kepong Metropolitan Park tomorrow!
