World
-Rumi "Jalaluddin Rumi"
The whole world is a psychology and everything belonging to this world, living or
non-living also has its own psychology. No one can ever bring a thing out of the
sphere of its psychology.
-Deep Trivedi
Correcting oneself is correcting the whole world. The sun is simply bright. It does not correct anyone. Because it shines, the whole world is full of light. Transforming yourself is a means of giving light to the whole world.
-Ramana Maharshi "Ramana Maharshi"
Compassion: I don’t think that there is another world as important in marking a person’s inner growth. No other word completely conveys what this single word conveys.
-A Spiritual Leader "Swami Dayananda Saraswati"
It is not that the world has deteriorated today. You perceive the world as you are.
The world has been the same from the very beginning; neither has there been
a virtuous age (Dharma yuga) nor a sin age (Papi yuga). Here, everything has
always been dependent on an individual's perspective with which he looks at it.
-Deep Trivedi
If we cannot envision the world we would like to live in, we cannot work towards its creation. If we cannot place ourselves in it in our imagination, we will not believe it is possible.
-Chellis Glendinning "Chellis Glendinning"
Change your thoughts, and you change your world.
-Norman Vincent Peale "Norman. V. Peale"
The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.
-Bertrand Russell "Bertrand Russell"
The world is my country, all mankind are my brethren, and to do good is my religion.
-Thomas Paine "Thomas Paine"
Learn to make the whole world your own. No one is a stranger, my child; this whole world is your own.
