If you want to awaken all of humanity, then awaken all of yourself, if you want to eliminate the suffering in the world, then eliminate all that is negative in yourself. Truly, the greatest gift you have to give is that of your own self-transformation.

Love in your mind produces love in your life. This is the meaning of heaven. Fear in your mind produces fear in your life. This is the meaning of hell.

The experience of oneness with other human beings would be incomplete and ineffective without an experience of oneness with the rest of the universe. We are not and could never be an isolated species. As human beings we are part of nature; we belong to the greater community of all living beings. More than that, the sun is our brother, the moon our sister, and the earth our mother. We belong to the great family of creation.

What we know about God is important, but what we do with what we know about God is even more important. Too often people think it is necessary that we all see God in the same way (which is impossible anyway), but what is really necessary is that we all follow God according to what God tells us…. God honors each unique journey and culture. God is not threatened by differences. It’s we who are.

We cannot wait for the world to turn, for times to change that we might change with them, for the revolution to come and carry us around in its new course. We are the future. We are the revolution.
