The Cosmos,
Nature,
and human behaviour
The key to growth
is the introduction of higher dimensions
into our consciousness
~Lao Tzu
In the Kali Age there will be many false religionists...
And Dharma becomes very weak in the Kali Age,
and people commit sin in mind, speech and actions
...Quarrels, plague, fatal diseases, famines,
drought and calamaties appear
..People...are wicked, full of anger...greedy, untruthful
...Earth will be valued only for her mineral treasures.
Money alone will confer nobility.
Power will be the sole definition of virtue.
..Thus in the Kali Age
humankind will be utterly destroyed.
~Hindu scripture
To live in a world at peace,
To live in peace with each other,
To live at peace within ourselves,
There is no need for
Ten commandments.
There is no need for rules
Dogma ,indoctrination,
oppression or centralized control.
If we live our lives as individuals
with one guideline,
That is all that is required
To change the world we live in.
That guideline is....
"Do unto others
As you would have
Them do unto you."
It really is that simple.
~Niav
"The diversity of human family should be the cause
of love and harmony,
as it is in music where many
different notes blend together
in the making of
a perfect chord. If you meet those of different race
and color from yourself, do not mistrust them
and withdraw yourself into your shell of conventionality,
but, rather, be glad and show them kindness.
Think of them as different colored roses growing
in
the beautiful garden of humanity,
and rejoice to be among them."
~'Abdu'l-Bahá
It's not too late... the angel said.
Even though the world's a mess...
Even though you're not as young...
Even though you've made mistakes
and have been afraid
It's not too late...
And then I saw the world
through the angels' eyes...
I saw the colors I could paint
The bridges I could build
The lives that I could touch
The dreams that could still come true
And it became very clear to me...
That it's not too late.
~Ron Atchison
