Lion
One should not hesitate. Walk like lions! Righteousness adorns your armor. (LMG II, p 24)
Courage must be gathered to pass like lions—thus grows an achievement.
(LMG II, p 28)
Walk like lions, but guard the little ones, because they will help you to open My doors. Have understanding! (LMG II, 64)
Verily, Lord Buddha could manifest Himself. The Lord appeared to many, but He wished to make His Teaching the only source, and therefore He ceased personal manifestations.
Worship had no place in the Teaching of the Lord; its essence was knowledge and personal achievement. Just this was the characteristic trait of the Teaching of the Lord. Precisely because of this, His symbol was the lion. We often call the Lord, “King of Thought”. (LMG II, p 158)
The Blessed “Lion”, garbed in fearlessness, ordained to teach the manifestation of courage. (COM, 41)
Say to the hypocritical contemplators that if contemplation is a tension of energy and accumulation for a leap, then from the “Lion” comes ordainment of such action. But if contemplation is an indolence and indifference, then it is impossible to represent this shameful pastime as a great Covenant. (COM, 213)
