Buddha Nature in Great Gatsby ~~

Fitzgerald 

If for the slightest moment, I suddenly realize the light or the Buddha Nature within a man's consciousness ,  it is because of him, Jay Gatsby, who upheld all the optimistic hope for humanity ! As we all yearn for the green light and guidance in life, that we strive to reach the other shore while incessantly we were being drawn back to the original starting point. 


Sad, isn't it? However, there is Gastby , a gigantic and romantic hero , who at the end bestowed a hope for audience like us , whithin and whitout the chaotic universe.  

However, not that human beings are so vicious, but they do have their shortcomings that become the cause of the faults others may criticize! 

 “And I like large parties. They’re so intimate. At small parties there isn’t any privacy.” The Great Gatsby 

“So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.” 

“The loneliest moment in someone’s life is when they are watching their whole world fall apart, and all they can do is stare blankly.” 

“I hope she'll be a fool -- that's the best thing a girl can be in this world, a beautiful little fool.” 
― F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby

“I fell in love with her courage, her sincerity, and her flaming self respect. And it's these things I'd believe in, even if the whole world indulged in wild suspicions that she wasn't all she should be. I love her and it is the beginning of everything.” 
― F. Scott Fitzgerald

“Whenever you feel like criticizing any one...just remember that all the people in this world haven't had the advantages that you've had.”  The Great Gatsby
