A Gift of Dharma for 5.27.10
Today’s quote is from His Holiness Tsangyang Gyatso, the Sixth Dalai Lama of Tibet (1683 – 1706). In addition to serving as the spiritual and secular leader of his country, His Holiness composed internationally acclaimed love poetry and songs.

As intensely as I muse on my beloved
I would certainly attain enlightenment
Surely, in this one lifetime
