... The first peace, which is most important, is that which comes within the soul -- when one realizes their relationship, oneness, within the universe. When they realize that at the center dwells (God) and that this center is everywhere. It is within each of us.
.,.,.This is the real peace, and the others but reflections. The second peace is that which is made between two individuals, and the third is that which is made between two nations.
...But above all you should understand that there can never be peace between nations until there is first known that true peace which is in the souls of men and women - Black Elk
Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes - Ghandi
Out beyond right doing and wrongdoing, there is a field... I'll meet you there - Rumi
I can think, I can wait, I can fast. -Siddhartha (Herman Hesse)

You have been marked on my profile map! Click to zoom-in.
A human being is part of a whole, called by us the “universe,â€
a part limited in time and space.
He/she experiences self, thoughts and feelings as something
separate from the rest — a kind of optical delusion of consciousness.
This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires
and to affection for a few people near us.
Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison
by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures
and the whole of nature in its beauty.
. ~Albert Einstein~
