About Me

Beholders is run as a group of people interested in the Body, Mind and Spirit connection, as well as social, environmental and humanitarian causes. We have nothing to sell anyone. The ideal is to join forces for a significant transformation of the current state of the world, in a broad and individual level. Articles are welcome on any of the three topics. Please feel free to join us as friends, and visit our site:
Beholders.org
Current causes include Tibet, childhood hunger, peace movements, environmentally conscious use of resources and technologies and education for underprivileged communities throughout the world. Join us to find out how to help.
TO HIM THAT WAS CRUCIFIED
BY WALT WHITMAN

That we all labor together,
transmitting the same charge and succession;
We few, equals, indifferent of lands, indifferent of times;
We, enclosers of all continents, all castes—allowers of all theologies,
Compassionaters, perceivers, rapport of men,
We walk silent among disputes and assertions, but reject
not the disputers, nor any thing that is asserted;
We hear the bawling and din—we are reach’d at by divisions, jealousies, recriminations on every side,
They close peremptorily upon us, to surround us, my comrade,
Yet we walk unheld, free, the whole earth over, journeying up and down,
till we make our ineffaceable mark upon time and the diverse eras,
Till we saturate time and eras,
that the men and women of races, ages to come, may prove brethren and lovers, as we are.

------
Over 1.2 million Tibetans have been killed by the Chinese government.
6000 monasteries were destroyed. And the tortures, killings and human rights violations continue.
It's time to help the most peaceful people in the world have a voice. All they need is your participation and hope that people would defend a country that has no oil, no political influence and no weapons to offer. Their contribution is much deeper. What they offer is compassion, peace and lessons on how the world can be fixed.
Support the proposal of his Holiness the Dalai Lama to make Tibet a peace zone country, and help free the Tibetan people from violence and oppression.

A few Favorite quotes:

"My Religion is Simple. My Religion is Compassion."

~ H.H. Tenzin Gyatzu, 14th Dalai Lama

"Peace cannot be kept by force. It can only be achieved by understanding."

"Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one."

"The further the spiritual evolution of mankind advances, the more certain it seems to me that the path to genuine religiosity does not lie through the fear of life, and the fear of death, and blind faith, but through striving after rational knowledge."

~ Albert Einstein

“The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.”

~ Mahatama Gandhi
