Empty Chair
“The way is not in the sky. The way is in the heart” - Buddha
It has no specific owner: a lord, a king,
a president, name them…..
It is not made of wood, gold, silver or iron.
The chair is made from invisible, priceless divinity.
It is normally reserved for those who are ready to lead others
to the right path, no matter who they are
or what they do. As your own leader, you lead people
who are in “slumber,” to divine happiness
across time. The throne, deep with your soul, awaits you
to sit on it; by becoming Enlightened. If you see the slogan
"Leading without a Title", you'll see yourself as the master of your own fate,
and captain of your own soul.....
(The Empty Chair is one of Buddha's symbols, symbolizing a divine throne without a specific ruler. The ruler can be you or me. Since we are all part of Consciousness, we are One. Buddha is the manifestation of consciousness.)
