Sunday


You shall not hate in your heart anyone of your kin; you shall reprove your neighbor, or you will incur guilt on yourself.

Leviticus 19:17
Judiasm & Christianity

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called the children of God.

Matthew 5:9

The man who is not hostile amongst the hostile, who is peaceful amongst the violent, not seizing upon anything amongst those that seize upon everything, him I call wise.

Sutta Nipata 630 Adapted
Buddhism

I look upon all creatures equally: none are less dear to me and none more dear. But those who worship me with love live in me and I come to life in them.

Bragavad Gita 9:29
Hinduism

 As far as we can discern, the sole purpose of human existence is to kindle a light in the darkness of mere being. 

~Carl Jung


May generosity triumph over stinginess, may love triumph over hatred, and may truth triumph over falsehood.

Yasna 60:5 Adapted
Zoroastrianism

The Great Being saith: O well-beloved ones! The tabernacle of unity hath been raised; regard ye not one another as strangers. Ye are the fruits of one tree, and leaves of one branch. We cherish the hope that the light of justice may shine upon the world and sanctify it from tyranny.

Gleanings from the writings of Bahá'u'lláh 112
