Sunday


Our greatest strength lies in the gentleness 
and tenderness of our heart.

Rumi

The main practice of all major religions is love and to defend it against obstacles we need tolerance and forgiveness. Consequently, all major religions talk about compassion, tolerance, contentment, and self-discipline. The teachers of our various traditions have been realistic in their advice. Because self-centredness often leads to greed, they all advise cultivating contentment and simplicity in our lives.

Dalai Lama

“Love is the strongest medicine.
It is more powerful than electricity.”

~Neem Karoli Baba

All things share the same breath - the beast, the tree, the man... The air shares its spirit with all the life it supports. 
—Chief Seattle

Grieve in places that the world does not forgive. Rejoice in places the world does not notice. Live with a patience that culture cannot sustain, and with a hope that the world cannot imagine.

~Krista Tippett


“Everything terrible is something that needs our love.”

~Rainer Maria Rilke


Love generates love.

Rumi

Let's trade in all our judging for appreciating. 

Let's lay down our righteousness and just be together.

"Sharing the light of my candles takes nothing away from their

brightness. Rather it doubles the brightness around my space."
