Friday Food for Thought

Your neighbor is your other self, dwelling behind a wall.

In understanding, all walls shall fall down.

Who knows but that your neighbor is your better self,

wearing another body?

See that you love him as you would love yourself.

He too is a manifestation of the Most High.

- Khalil Gibran

God can be realized through many paths.

All religions that teach peace are true.

In our human state we are born in the courtyard of the house of God. 

The important thing is to reach the roof where you can truly see the light. 

You can reach it by stone stairs or by wooden stairs or by bamboo steps or by a rope. You can also climb up by a bamboo pole. 

But if you do not aspire to reach the roof you will live your entire life in the courtyard where too many shadows and walls block your view of the sun’s pure light. 

Go to the roof of your faith, O child of the universe, and bathe in the pureness of the light.

- Rama Krishna
