Sometimes, Buddhist teachings become more easily visible by watching someone practice them than by reading books about them. One teacher who I find inspiring, and who did not write anything, but left a lasting influence on many people just by being there, was a woman named Dipa Ma. She seems to have embodied the path and been able to teach it well, even under very trying circumstances, as a mother and grandmother, teaching normal people.

If any of you are interested in Buddhism, but think you haven't got the time or chance to practice - read her story:

Thank you. This is very helpful.

I can`t find the book, maybe there is also a buddhist proverb in that book that goes like:
`` Life is a bridge, go over it, but don`t build a house on it``
