Christ was crucified once, but his teachings suffer crucifixion every day at the hands of men of limited vision. Christ’s teachings cannot be understood just by reading the Bible…but by living and trying out in everyday life the principles taught in the book.
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.
I respect more the person who struggles with his faith than the person who is confident in his skepticism.
-Robert Brault
If you believe what you like in the gospels, and reject what you don't like, it is not the gospel you believe, but yourself.
-Saint Augustine of Hippo
The word “impossible” is only in the mind, and not in the heart.
If we can remain in the heart, there will be no end to our progress.
-Sri Chinmoy
