"The two qualities most needed in the world now are empathy and compassion. When we can truly love others and work ceaselessly to save from suffering even those who ridicule and seek to injure us, then only will we find inner peace and freedom from suffering. As people come to peace within themselves, the energy of peace spreads first to the family and friends and then through society at large. If we desire to work for peace in the world, we must serve God in all things and meditate constantly on inner peace." - Gaṇanāthāmṛtānanda Svāmī |
