The link between thoughts and feelings is key.
A good thought will resonate a good feeling. So what's a good thought? A selfless thought. A thought not wrapped up in concern of what one gets.
But how to develop such thoughts? One needs a fertile playing field...that's the earth. And its often the beggars of this world, the down and out, that get the most opportunity to do this cultivation.
There are beggars here where I live. I often look into their eyes because I like the quality they express. They ask for my money but sometimes I don't see the need for it in their eyes. So its like they are doing something on the outside, and feeling something entirely different on the inside. This fascinates me. How there's so much unknown.
