Human rights are...the quintessential values through which we affirm together that we are a single human community.
Cosmic consciousness is consciousness of the Divine in the entire universe, in all things, in all the world, in all nature.
To be free is not merely to cast off one’s chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others
He who loves me is made pure; his heart melts in joy. He rises to transcendental consciousness by the rousing of his higher emotional nature. Tears of joy flow from his eyes, his hair stands on end, his heart melts in love. The bliss in that state is so intense that, forgetful of himself and his surroundings, he sometimes weeps profusely, or laughs, or sings, or dances; such a devotee is a purifying influence upon the whole universe.
