The "Purgatorio" shows how love is to be set in order, the "Paradiso" shows how it is
rendered perfect in successive stages of illumination, until it attains to union with
the Divine Love.

In allegorical fashion they tell us how Dante became the lover of Philosophy, that mystical lady whose soul is love and whose body is wisdom, she "whose true abode is in the most secret place of the
Divine Mind".
Phantom of the Opera, Tallbloke
The Haunted House, John Atkinson Grimshaw
"The three groups of seven birds refer to seven gifts of the Holy Spirit, which are:
love, joy, peace, patience, faithfulness, humility and self-control."

Nan-in, a Japanese master during the Meiji era (1868-1912), received a university
professor who came to inquire about Zen.
Nan-in served tea. He poured his visitor's cup full, and then kept on pouring.
The professor watched the overflow until he no longer could restrain himself.
"It is overfull. No more will go in!"
"Like this cup," Nan-in said, "you are full of your own opinions and speculations.
How can I show you Zen unless you first empty your cup?

1. A Glimpse of the Ox: Discovering and Starting Along the Way
"It does not matter if you practice Taijiquan or Taiji sword, the final goal remains
the same. You should understand that Taijiquan was created in a Daoist monastery,
in which the final goal of spiritual cultivation was enlightenment. In order to reach
this stage, you must first ponder, seek out and comprehend the meaning of life. To
reach this understanding of life, you must continue to challenge yourself, and master
your emotional mind. Self-mastery is the necessary prerequisite for understanding."
Yang, Jwing-Ming, "Taiji Sword - Classical Yang Style," 1999, p. 18

the Hindu smara, the sufi zikr, Plato's recollection, Christ's anamnesis: all of those
terms are precisely translated as remembrance. "It is precisely a failure to remember,"
says Coomaraswamy, "that drags down from the heights the soul that has walked with
God and had some vision of the truths, but cannot retain it."
