It caused me to think of whether I could try to write something in imitation of it. So I wrote few stanzas \"Of Stone\", as my first name Doboom means 'stone vase'. The stanzas seemed to form smoothly. Feeling a sense of receiving some inspiration, every evening during a month I wrote a couple of stanzas before going to bed, and completed the stone part. Meanwhile, I had requested his Holiness the Dalai Lama for a teaching on \"The Path to Enlightenment\" and got the opportunity of receiving it in Dharamsala. So, based on some comprehension of the teachings, I started writing stanzas \"Of Earth\" and completed it at the end of the teachings which lasted several days.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Magenta Press","offers":[{"title":"Misc","offer_id":46122592010391,"sku":"9788191009620","price":130.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9788191009620.webp?v=1769298573","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/words-well-spoken-maxims-of-earth-and-s-9788191009620","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
