Apiarian

 "Were I to be the founder of a new sect, I would call them Apiarians, and, after the example of the bee, advise them to extract the honey of every sect."  - Thomas Jefferson


It is not our job to remain whole.
We came to lose our leaves
Like the trees, and be born again,
Drawing up from the great roots.
-- Robert Bly


Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes.  
Don't resist them; that only creates sorrow.  
Let reality be reality.  
Let things flow naturally forward
in whatever way they like.

~Lao-Tzu




“Be universal in your love. You will see the universe to be the picture of your own being.”
― Sri Chinmoy



We all have different faces, characters and names. If God wanted us to be all same, He would have done it. Not to respect the differences, to accuse the others for our faults is not to respect God.
~ Shams

“We have within ourselves as a species, to find the beauty in everything. And once we master it, we will then be some of the gentlest creatures that ever evolved.”
― Tom Althouse


The truth was a mirror in the hands of God. It fell, and broke into pieces. Everybody took a piece of it, and they looked at it and thought they had the truth.
~ Rumi



“As the flower blooms in spring, compassion grows in mindfulness.”
― Amit Ray


Little things seem nothing, but they give peace, like those meadow flowers which individually seem odorless but all together perfume the air.
- George Bernanos


"A traveller I am, and a navigator, and everyday I discover a new region within my soul."
- Kahlil Gibran
