I Am Awake!

A man walked up to Buddha and asked him, 'Tell me Buddha, are you a God?' 'No, ' the Buddha replied. 'I am not.' 'Are you an angel, then?' he prodded. 'No, I am not.' 'Are you a prophet?' he asked. 'No, not a prophet either, ' was the calm reply. 'Well, what are you then?' he demanded. Whereupon Buddha answered, 'I am awake.'

Points for Pro-Action

• Religion! You must speak of it less, practise more!
• Staying awake is to exercise agency and not behave like automatons.
• Some dream of success. Others stay awake to achieve it.
• You can live a whole life time never being awake - Dan Millman.
