Whatever living beings there may be--feeble or strong, small or large, seen or unseen, those who live far or those near, those who are born and those who are yet to be born--may all beings, without exception, experience a happy mind.

Let one not deceive another nor despise any person whatever in any place. In anger or ill will let one not wish any harm to another.

Let one's thoughts of boundless love pervade the whole world without any obstruction, without any hatred, without any enmity.

-Samyutta Nikaya

WORLD CONSCIOUSNESS

Never give up
No matter what is going on
Never give up
Develop the heart
Too much energy in your country is spent
developing the mind instead of the heart
Develop the heart,
Be compassionate
Not just to your friends but to everyone,
be compassionate
Work for peace in your heart and in the world
Work for peace, and I say again
Never give up
No matter what is happening
No matter what is going on around you
Never give up.

Tenzin Gyatso
14th Dalai Lama

THE UNIVERSE

I have loved you and known you all your life.
You remember me don't you? if not, let me remind you.
I am you & you are me. We have been together throughout eternity.
We have lived and died everywhere, been to every land. There is not a piece of me and you that is not spread out on this great earth and in everyone's hearts and minds.
We all share it equally. One is all, all is one.
I am called the universe, no beginning, no end.
I love you. I always have.
It is what we are all made of . . .
Love n Light
