An infinite God can give all of himself to each of His children. He does not distribute himself so that each may have a part, but to each one He gives all of Himself as fully as if there were no others".

Lao Tzu

Some of us live and some of us die

Someday God's gonna tell us why

Open your hearts and grow with what life sends

We'll meet one day at the festival of friends

"Falsehood has an infinity of combinations, but truth has only one mode of being".

The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant.

We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.

G.K. Chesterton

"Once you abolish the God, the government then becomes the God".

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate

Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.

It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us.

We ask ourselves, "Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?"

Actually, who are you not to be?

You are a child of God;

your playing small doesn't serve the world.

Blaine Pascal

"Men never do evil so completely and with conviction as when they do it from a religous conviction".

Food brings benefit for some hours, clothes for some months but wisdom lasts as long as the mind itself. It is the foundation of a better society.

T.S. Eliot

Peace will not come out of a clash of arms but out of justice lived and done by unarmed nations in the face of odds.

Albert Einstein

"Whoever sets himself up as the judge of truth and knowledge is shipwrecked by the laughter of the God's".

Change is not something that we should fear.

Rather, it is something that we should welcome.

For without change, nothing in this world would ever grow or blossom,

and no one in this world would ever move forward

to become the person they're meant to be.

Henry Van Dyke

"Even if we were to find another Eden, we would not be fit to enjoy it or stay in it forever".

You must be the change that you wish to see in the world.

Lord of the Starfield, Ancient of Days

Universe maker, Here's a song in your praise

Voice of the nova, Smile of the dew

All of our yearnings only come home to you

Oh love that fires the sun keep me burning

The mind is everything;

what you think, you become.

C.S. Lewis

When one experiences truth,

the madness of finding fault with others disappears.

Jacques Ellul

... no matter what God's powers may be, the first aspect of God is never that of the absoulute Master, the Almighty. It is that of the God who puts himself on the human level and limits himself".

Knowing others is intelligence.

Knowing yourself is true wisdom.

Marilynne Robinson

"We routinely disqualify testimony that would plead for extenuation. That is, we are so persuaded by the rightness of our judgement as to invalidate evidence that does not confirm us in it. Nothing that deserves to be called truth could be arrived at by such means".

Man did not weave the web of life,

he is merely a strand in it

Whatever he does to the web,

he does to himself.

Kahlil Gibran

"Sadness is a wall between two gardens".

Before you've practiced, the theory is useless.

After you've practiced, the theory is obvious.

All mental constructions are impermanent; They are of the nature to arise and pass away. Having arisen, they cease. Happiness is when they are at peace.
