"Right at this moment, will I choose small self or True Self? Will I embrace violence (judgmentalism, comparison, greed, etc.) or nonviolence? Will I try to play it safe or risk for the truth that I have understood? As Gandhi said, nonviolence is not for cowards. ... Great honesty and discipline is required to be able to discern that I am not deceiving myself, so that my life can truly be an offering to the Supreme Truth which embraces us all when we have made ourselves ready and transparent."Veronica Pelicaric, Pace e Bene
