If I could live as a tree, as a river, as the moon, as the sun, as a star, as the earth, as a rock, I would. ...Writing permits me to experience life as any number of strange creations.
Alice WalkerRead
While we are sitting in meditation, we are simply exploring humanity and all of creation in the form of ourselves.
Pema ChodronRead
The basic laws of the universe are simple, but because our senses are limited, we can’t grasp them. There is a pattern in creation.
Albert EinsteinRead
The interesting question is, how do you put yourself in a position so that you can allow ‘what is’ to be. The enemy turns out to be the creation of mind. Because when you are just in the moment, doing what you are doing, there is no fear. The fear is when you stand back to think about it. The fear is not in the actions. The fear is in the thought about the actions.
Ram DassRead
Joy, anger, sorrow, happiness, find no place in that man's breast; for to him all creation is ONE. And all things being thus united in ONE, his body and limbs are but as dust of the earth, and life and death, beginning, and end, are but as night and day, and cannot destroy his peace. How much less such trifles as gain or loss, misfortune or good fortune?
ZhuangziRead
You do not lose your value or preciousness when you grow to be a adult. You are still that miraculous creation. You must work, we must all work, to make the world worthy of its children.
Pablo CasalsRead
Life is a creation, not a discovery. You do not live each day to discover what it holds for you, but to create it
Neale Donald WalschRead
Today too, amid so much darkness, we need to see the light of hope and to be men and women who bring hope to others. To protect creation, to protect every man and every woman, to look upon them with tenderness and love, is to open up a horizon of hope; it is to let a shaft of light break through the heavy clouds; it is to bring the warmth of hope!
Pope FrancisRead
While we are sitting in meditation, we are simply exploring humanity and all of creation in the form of ourselves. We can become the world's greatest experts on anger, jealousy, and self-deprecatio n, as well as on joyfulness, clarity, and insight. Everything that human beings feel, we feel. We can become extremely wise and sensitive to all of humanity and the whole universe simply by knowing ourselves, just as we are.
Pema ChodronRead
Slavery was, in a very real sense, the first _x000D_ international human rights issue to come to the fore. It led to the _x000D_ adoption of the first human rights laws and to the creation of the _x000D_ first human rights non-governmenta l organization. And yet despite _x000D_ the efforts of the international community to combat this abhorrent _x000D_ practice, it is still widely prevalent in all _x000D_ its insidious forms, old and new.
Kofi AnnanRead
The family is threatened by growing efforts on the part of some to redefine the very institution of marriage, by relativism, by the culture of the ephemeral, by a lack of openness to life. These realities are increasingly under attack from powerful forces, which threaten to disfigure God’s plan for creation.
Pope FrancisRead
Let us protect Christ in our lives, so that we can protect others, so that we can protect creation!
Pope FrancisRead
There is my body, in it an ocean formed of his glory, all the creation, all the universes, all the galaxies, are lost in it.
RumiRead
Education is the proper way to promote compassion and tolerance in society. Compassion and peace of mind bring a sense of confidence that reduce stress and anxiety, whereas anger and hatred come from frustration and undermine our sense of trust. Because of ignorance, many of our problems are our own creation. Education, however, is the instrument that increases our ability to employ our own intelligence.
Dalai LamaRead
Knowing your deepest intention can be your guiding force in the creation of a better life.
Oprah WinfreyRead
When we are touched by something it's as if we're being brushed by an angel's wings.
Rita DoveRead
The creation of a more peaceful and happier society has to begin from the level of the individual, and from there it can expand to one's family, to one's neighborhood, to one's community and so on.
Dalai LamaRead
A fundamental element of human nature is the need for creative work, for creative inquiry, for free creation without the arbitrary limiting effects of coercive institutions. A decent society should maximize the possibilities for this fundamental human characteristic to be realized.
Noam ChomskyRead
This is the simple discovery which we must confront. We were given a place in the creation, with a beauty beyond telling, and we have failed to care for it. And as our collective contempt for the non-human world has intensified, so has our contempt for each other. We have failed to care for each other.
Robert JensenRead
Human beings are members of a whole,_x000D_ In creation of one essence and soul._x000D_ If one member is afflicted with pain,_x000D_ Other members uneasy will remain._x000D_ If you have no sympathy for human pain,_x000D_ The name of human you cannot retain.
