We don't have to do anything to create a
spiritual revolution on our planet, other than embrace spiritual ideas inside
our hearts, bypassing our fears and attempting to live this new
evolution...

by The Dalai Lama (with Fabien Ouaki). None of us can afford to assume that somebody else will solve our problems; each of us must take his or her own share of universal responsibility. Adopting an attitude of universal responsibility is essentially a personal matter. The real test of compassion is not what we say in abstract discussions but how we conduct ourselves in daily life.

We will not be safe until the attitude of true peace is created as the rule of law for persons and nations alike. The human race has come to this precise point in its brief history: change, or perish. How are we to dismantle the attitude of militarism and install the attitude of peace, within our own minds and within the very structure of society?

Woven into the formula for individual well-being is a need for supporting the global community bringing our human endeavors into alignment with a partnership model of reality. This means that everybody wins. Although based on self-interest, everyone's actions contribute to the highest good of all concerned.

Many fear the coming of earth changes. Predictions of war and destruction abound. Yet through it all, we have the power to redirect the changes by our actions, our attitudes, our thoughts. As we release the patterns of distortion and separation, changes occur. |

by Robert Rabbin. It is self-evident that peace among nations will never grow from the blood-soaked and stained earth of war. When will we realize that killing others never ends the cycle of killing, that vengeance and retribution never bring peace? When will we lose our appetite for killing, for war, for slaughter, for murder? When will we find another way towards peace and justice? It must be now, if we are to leave anything worth leaving to our children. We cannot listen to or be persuaded by those whose absolutism is unguarded by wisdom. |

by Abd-ru-shin. Written in the 1930s. 'Life' is more than mere physical existence: it includes the human spirit. And 'Thou Shalt Not Kill!' is directed toward protecting both the body and spirit in ourselves and in others. On the battlefield with terrorists, in wars perpetrated over religious differences, and even in school hallways where children shoot their classmates, human beings are taking the lives of others. What person doesn't hear a little voice within asking, 'How can this be happening?' At some point we begin to realize that violence begets violence, and that the human race is in a vicious cycle of aggression, often unable to find a way out. Yet we must, if we are to achieve what every true human being yearns for: peace. |

We all have various reasons to complain. Some of them are within our power to change, and others not. We complain about our job, our health, the weather, our neighbors, our kids, our families, our government, the environment, the state of the world... If you want to complain, there is no lack of things to complain about.

Much of our knowledge is based upon circular arguments: "our theory correctly explains the phenomenon, and the phenomenon occurs because our theory is correct". As history has demonstrated, mankind will blindly cling to a belief until the evidence against it becomes overwhelming.

by Queen Noor Al-Hussein. As we enter a new era, it is time to create a new culture -- a culture of peace rather than war. The real issue is security. But like so much else, the definition of security is changing. Threats today come not only from war, but also from economic and social inequities, human rights abuses, marginalization, and poverty. |

For others, as for myself, the yearning for just a drop of miraculous balm to quiet the troubled waters of daily life is universal. Loved ones hope to heal the bitter quarrels that sunder them from one another. Busy people maneuver to snatch a moment of calm. Those who are poor long for the peace of a full stomach and physical security.
