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
