earth is always earth. the earth will let anyone sit on it, and earth never gives way. it never lets you go-you don't drop off this earth and go flying through outer space. likewise, sky is always sky; heaven is always heaven above you. whether it is snowing or raining or the sun is shining, whether it is daytime or nighttime, the sky is always there. in that sense, we know that heaven and earth are trustworthy.-chogyam trungpa
