Tenderness and kindness are not signs of weakness and despair, but manifestations of strength and resolution. \tConstant kindness can accomplish much. As the sun makes ice melt, kindness causes misunderstanding, mistrust, and hostility to evaporate. \tCruelty hardens and degrades \tLove and kindness are never wasted. They always make a difference. They bless the one who receives them, and they bless you, the giver. \tTo love someone means to see him as God intended him. \tWork is love made visible. And if you cannot work with love but only with distaste, it is better that you should leave your work and sit at the gate of the temple and take alms of those who work with joy. For if you bake bread with indifference, you bake a bitter bread that feeds but half man's hunger. \tGreat love and great achievements involve great risk. \tGod made Truth with many doors to welcome every believer who knocks on them. \tThe greatest happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved — loved for ourselves, or rather, loved in spite of ourselves. \tOut of chaos the future emerges in harmony and beauty. \tOf life's two chief prizes, beauty and truth, I found the first in a loving heart and the second in a laborer's hand. \tBeauty in the heart that longs for it is more sublime than in the eyes of him who sees it. \t The key point is kindness. With kindness one will have inner peace. Through inner peace, world peace can one day be a reality. \t The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched — they must be felt with the heart. \t Love between two people is such a precious thing. It is not a possession. I no longer need to possess to complete myself. True love becomes my freedom \t. . . Love is a great beautifier. \t Only love can penetrate all your karmas and resistances and set your heart on fire with the awareness of its true nature. \n\tThe important thing is not to think much, but to love much; and so, do that which best stirs you to love. \t You cannot do a kindness too soon, for you never know how soon it will be too late. \tKindness is the golden chain by which society is bound together. \tIt is the heart, and not the brain, \n\tWhoso loves believes the impossible. \tI feel that my mission is, wherever I am, to express my feeling about the importance of kindness, compassion, and the true sense of brotherhood. I practice these things. It gives me more happiness, more success. If I practiced anger or jealousy or bitterness, no doubt my smile would disappear. \t It matters not \t When I am working on a problem I never think about beauty. I only think about how to solve the problem. But when I have finished, if the solution is not beautiful, I know it is wrong. \t Love is beauty and beauty is truth, and that is why in the beauty of a flower we can see the truth of the universe. \n\tKeep your faith in beautiful things; in the sun when it is hidden, in the Spring when it is gone. \tIn this world, hate never yet dispelled hate. Only loving-kindness dispels hate. This is the Dharma, ancient and inexhaustible. \n\tTrue love is no game of the faint-hearted and the weak; it is born of strength and understanding. \n\tMay all beings be filled with joy and peace. \tLet no one deceive another, \tLet your love flow outward through the universe, \tThere is no disguise that can for long conceal love where it exists or simulate it where it does not. \tWhen love beckons to you follow him, \tFor even as love crowns you so shall he crucify you. \tLike sheaves of corn he gathers you unto himself. \tAll these things shall love do unto you that you may know the secrets of your heart, \tLove gives naught but itself and takes naught but from itself. \tBut if you love and must needs have desires, let these be your desires: \n\tYou suppose you are the trouble \tYou suppose that you are the lock on the door \tIt ís too bad that you want to be someone else \n\tThere can be no Security without Peace \n\tWork as if you will live forever \n\tA husband and wife who love each other, can tell each other a thousand things without saying a word. \n\tA man can live happily with any woman, as long as he doesn't love her. \n\tLove is like a fire. But you can't tell if it will warm you or burn your house down. \n\tLove makes everything that is heavy, light. \tIn a perfect union the man and woman are like a strung bow. Who is to say whether the string bends the bow, or the bow tightens the string? \tTeaching is a way to love others. \t The greatest thing you can ever learn is just to love and be loved in return. \t Love is like a spring that never stops flowing. \n\tDo you love me because I'm beautiful, or am I beautiful because you love me? \t It is not how much you do, but how much love you put into the doing that matters. \t You don't get harmony when everybody sings the same note. \tLove is an act of endless forgiveness, a tender look which becomes a habit. \t It is in deep solitude that I find the gentleness with which I can truly love my brothers. The more solitary I am the more affection I have for them. Solitude and silence teach me to love my brothers for what they are, not for what they say. \t Hell, Madame, is to love no longer. \tYoung love is a flame; very pretty, often very hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. The love of the older and disciplined heart is as coals, deep burning, unquenchable. \t The best part of beauty is that which no picture can express. \tOf all virtues and dignities of the mind, goodness is the greatest, being the character of the Deity; and without it, man is a busy, mischievous, wretched thing. \n\tNeither a lofty degree of intelligence nor imagination nor both together go to the making of genius. Love, love, love, that is the soul of genius. \tLet there be space in your togetherness, \tThe choice between love and fear is made every moment in our hearts and minds. That is where the peace process begins. Without peace within, peace in the world is an empty wish. Like love, peace is extended. It cannot be brought from the world to the heart. It must be brought from each heart to another, and thus to all mankind. \tTruth, when not sought after, rarely comes to light. \tBeautiful young people are accidents of nature, but beautiful old people are works of art. \tA tree is known by its fruit; a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost; he who sows courtesy reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love. \tLove is the river of life in the world. \t Love is the first ingredient in the relief of suffering. \t Perfect love is rare indeed – for to be a lover will require that you continually have the subtlety of the very wise, the flexibility of the child, the sensitivity of the artist, the understanding of the philosopher, the acceptance of the saint, the tolerance of the scholar and the fortitude of the certain. \n\tFlowing Thoughtfulness<\/p>\n \tWhen one person is thoughtful to another, the thoughtfulness gets carried on and on. \tThe course of true love never did run smooth. \n\tIt is wrong to think that love comes from long companionship and persevering courtship. \n\tDo not believe in a thing because you have read about it in a book. Do not believe in a thing because another man has said it was true. Do not believe in words because they are hallowed by tradition. Find out the truth for yourself… That is realization. \n\tOnly in the state of love will the beautiful, fragrant flower of freedom and supreme bliss unfold its petals and bloom. \n\tYou may call God love, you may call God goodness. But the best name for God is compassion. \tOne can pay back the loan of gold, but one dies forever in debt to those who are kind. \n\tThe subject tonight is Love \n\tYou will find, as you look back upon your life, \n\tNeither a lofty degree of intelligence nor imagination nor both together go to the making of genius. \n\tLove is an attempt to change a piece of dream into reality. \n\tThose who love deeply never grow old; they may die of old age, but they die young. \tI will not play at tug o' war. \n\tLove has reasons which reason cannot understand. \t Of all the creations of the earth and heaven love is the most precious. \n\tAll a sane man can ever think about is giving love. \tIf you've got love in your heart, whatever you do from that moment out is likely to be right. \n\tLove is not all: it is not meat nor drink \n\tIt is only in the mysterious equation of love that any logic or reason can be found. \n\tThis is the most profound spiritual truth I know: that even when we're most sure that love can't conquer all, it seems to anyway. \n\tLove is but the discovery of ourselves in others, and the delight in the recognition. \n\tTime is too slow for those who wait, \n\tLove has its own time, its own season, and its own reasons for coming and going. \n\tTake away love and our earth is a tomb. \n\tTo love someone deeply gives you strength. \n\tTrue love doesn't have a happy ending: True love doesn't HAVE an ending. \n\tThere is no need for temples, no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness. \t Love is the only thing you get more of by giving it away. \tThe moment you have in your heart this extraordinary thing called love and feel the depth, the delight, the ecstasy of it, you will discover that for you the world is transformed. \tThere is no difficulty that enough love will not conquer. \t Love is an irresistable desire to be irresistably desired. \n\tLet no one who loves be unhappy. \n\tKnow love, know happiness. \n\tThe day will come when, after harnessing space, the winds, the tides, and gravitation, we shall harness for God the energies of love. And on that day, for the second time in the history of the world, we shall have discovered fire. \n\tDriven by the force of love, the fragments of the world seek each other that the world may come into being. \n\tLove alone is capable of uniting living beings in such a way as to complete and fulfill them, for it alone takes them and joins them by what is deepest in themselves. \n\tThe quarrels of lovers are like summer storms. Everything is more beautiful when they have passed. \n\tThe things we admire in men, kindness and generosity, openness, honesty, understanding and feeling are the concomitants of failure in our system. And those traits we detest, sharpness, greed, acquisitiveness, meanness, egotism and self-interest are the traits of success. And while men admire the quality of the first they love the produce of the second. \n\tLife without love is like a tree without blossoms or fruit. \n\tI suddenly realized that what I was feeling was the love of the Earth, the love of Creation. Every day we, as a species, do so much to destroy Creation's ability to give us life. But that Creation continues to do everything in its power to give us life anyway. And that's true love. \n\tUnthinking respect for authority is the greatest enemy of truth. \n\tLove and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them, humanity cannot survive. \n\tTo give pleasure to a single heart by a single kind act is better than a thousand head-bowings in prayer. \n\tThe pursuit of truth and beauty is a sphere of activity in which we are permitted to remain children all of our lives. \n\tPower is of two kinds. One is obtained by the fear of punishment and the other by acts of love. Power based on love is a thousand times more effective and permanent than the one derived from fear of punishment. \n\tEveryone wishes to have truth on his side, but not everyone wishes to be on the side of truth. \n\tFor every beauty there is an eye somewhere to see it. \n\tWe've got this gift of love, \n\tIf you tell the truth you don't have to remember anything. \n\tWhat wisdom can you find that is greater than kindness? \n\tThe truth is so precious that it travels surrounded by a bodyguard of lies. \tThat which you create in beauty and goodness and truth lives on for all time to come. Don't spend your life accumulating material objects that will only turn to dust and ashes. \t Kindness is in our power, even when fondness is not. \t114<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" < Tenderness and kindness are not signs of weakness and despair, but manifestations of strength and resolution. – Kahlil Gibran author of The Prophet Constant kindness can accomplish much.

\n\tMay all beings everywhere, seen and unseen,
\n\tDwelling far off or nearby, being or waiting to become:
\n\tMay all be filled with lasting joy.<\/p>\n
\n\tLet no one anywhere despise another,
\n\tLet no one out of anger or resentment
\n\tWish suffering on anyone at all.
\n\tJust as a mother with her own life
\n\tProtects her child, her only child, from harm,
\n\tSo within yourself
\n\tLet grow a boundless love for all creatures.<\/p>\n
\n\tTo its height, its depth, its broad extent,
\n\tA limitless love, without hatred or enmity.
\n\tThen as you stand or walk, sit or lie down,
\n\tAs long as you are awake,
\n\tStrive for this with a one-pointed mind;
\n\tYour life will bring heaven to earth.
\n\t – Sutta Nipata<\/strong><\/p>\n
\n\t– Francois de La Rochefoucauld<\/strong><\/p>\n
\n\tThough his ways are hard and steep.
\n\tAnd when his wings enfold you yield to him,
\n\tThough the sword hidden among his pinions may wound you.
\n\tAnd when he speaks to you believe in him,
\n\tThough his voice may shatter your dreams as the north wind lays waste the garden.<\/p>\n
\n\tEven as he is for your growth so is he for your pruning.
\n\tEven as he ascends to your height and caresses your tenderest branches
\n\tthat quiver in the sun,
\n\tSo shall he descend to your roots and shake them in their clinging to the earth.<\/p>\n
\n\tHe threshes you to make you naked.
\n\tHe sifts you to free you from your husks.
\n\tHe grinds you to whiteness.
\n\tHe kneads you until you are pliant;
\n\tAnd then he assigns you to his sacred fire,
\n\tthat you may become sacred bread for God's sacred feast.<\/p>\n
\n\tand in that knowledge become a fragment of Life's heart.
\n\tBut if in your fear you would seek only love's peace and love's pleasure,
\n\tThen it is better for you that you cover your nakedness and pass out of love's threshing-floor,
\n\tInto the seasonless world where you shall laugh, but not all of your laughter,
\n\tAnd weep, but not all of your tears.<\/p>\n
\n\tLove possesses not nor would it be possessed;
\n\tFor love is sufficient unto love.
\n\tWhen you love you should not say, "God is in my heart," but rather, I am in the heart of God."
\n\tAnd think not you can direct the course of love, if it finds you worthy, directs your course.
\n\tLove has no other desire but to fulfill itself.<\/p>\n
\n\tTo melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night.
\n\tTo know the pain of too much tenderness.
\n\tTo be wounded by your own understanding of love;
\n\tAnd to bleed willingly and joyfully.
\n\tTo wake at dawn with a winged heart
\n\tand give thanks for another day of loving;
\n\tTo rest at the noon hour and meditate love's ecstasy;
\n\tTo return home at eventide with gratitude;
\n\tAnd then to sleep with a prayer for the beloved in your heart
\n\tand a song of praise upon your lips.
\n\t – Kahlil Gibran
\n\tfrom The Prophet<\/strong><\/p>\n
\n\tbut you are the cure<\/p>\n

\n\tlike in a cup and bring it to your lips, slowly,
\n\tdo not be afraid that the water will ever dry up.
\n\tThe spring of love is inexhaustible.
\n\tSo drink the water of love without haste and with grateful recognition.

\n\tThe river runs freely again, and continues to flow,
\n\tMoving more rocks and reaching the hearts of others.
\n\tWhen one person is thoughtful to another the thoughtfulness gets carried on and on.
\n\tThe more we get together and help each other,
\n\tThe more friendship there can be throughout many different places.
\n\tThe friendship can begin like a small stream in a single neighborhood.
\n\tAnd then expand throughout a river of districts, states, countries, and even continents.
\n\tWhen one person is thoughtful to another, the thoughtfulness gets carried on and on.

\n\tin the cupboard or just think
\n\tit's going to get on by itself.
\n\tYou've got to keep watering it.
\n\tYou've got to really look after it and nurture it.
