Mahatma Gandhi
“I am but a poor struggling soul yearning to be wholly good, wholly truthful and wholly non-violent in thought, word and deed, but ever failing to reach the ideal which I know to be true. It is a painful climb, but each step upwards makes me feel stronger and fit for the next. ”
Mahatma Gandhi

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Two there are who are never satisfied -- the lover of the world and the lover of knowledge.”
Rumi Jalalud-Din, مثنوی معنوی

Eckhart Tolle
“The beginning of freedom is the realization that you are not “the thinker.” The moment you start watching the thinker, a higher level of consciousness becomes activated. You then begin to realize that there is a vast realm of intelligence beyond thought, that thought is only a tiny aspect of that intelligence. You also realize that all the things that truly matter – beauty, love, creativity, joy, inner peace – arise from beyond the mind. You begin to awaken.”
Eckhart Tolle, Practicing the Power of Now: Essential Teachings, Meditations, and Exercises from the Power of Now

Mahatma Gandhi
“God has no religion.”
Mahatma Gandhi

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Words are a pretext. It is the inner bond that draws one person to another, not words.”
Rumi

We can achieve peace if we stop hate, however hard it may be. Just open up your mind and love instead of hate.
