All great and precious things are lonely.
-John Steinbeck
There are words which sever hearts more than sharp swords; there are words the point of which sting the heart through the course of a whole life.
Why does a human being have to be a Hindu, Muslim, Christian or Buddhist?
Because lacking individuality, he is afraid of standing alone in the crowd...
Whereas, being a "Hindu" he feels a sense of security that one billion people are
there with him. The same is the psychology of Muslims, Christians and Buddhists
too.
-Deep Trivedi
The ornament of the night is the moon, that of the day is the sun. The ornament of the devotee is devotion, that of devotion knowledge. The ornament of knowledge is meditation, and that of meditation is renunciation. The ornament of renunciation, says Tulsi, is pure, unalloyed peace.
I believe compassion to be one of the few things we can practice that will bring immediate and long-term happiness to our lives.
Do not worry about tomorrow, it will have enough worries of its own. There is no need to add to the troubles each day brings.
-Jesus Christ
