“Brama do ogrodu (Gate to the Garden)" (1985) by Henryk Waniek

~*~

"We frail humans are at one time capable of the greatest good and, at the same time, capable of the greatest evil. Change will only come about when each of us takes up the daily struggle ourselves to be more forgiving, compassionate, loving, and above all joyful in the knowledge that, by some miracle of grace, we can change as those around us can change too."

~Mairead Maguire

"...when we finally know we are dying, and all other sentient beings are dying with us, we start to have a burning, almost heartbreaking sense of the fragility and preciousness of each moment and each being, and from this can grow a deep, clear, limitless compassion for all beings."

~Sogyal Rinpoche

"Imagine a world 

where everyone has all they need.

Where kindness and compassion 

are taught instead of greed.

Imagine a better world...

Imagine peace on earth!"

~Robert Alan Silverstein
