Above the cloud with its shadow is the star with its light. Above all things reverence thyself.
You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher but your own soul.
Each of us in our own way can try to spread compassion into people’s hearts. Western civilizations these days place great importance on filling the human ‘brain’ with knowledge, but no one seems to care about filling the human ‘heart’ with compassion.
Backward, turn backward,
O Time, in your flight make me a child again just for to-night!
If the mind becomes balanced and detached, and comes to dwell in its own true home, imbued with the love of God, then it enjoys the essence of supreme spiritual wisdom; it shall never feel hunger again.
