Udaar charitanaam vasudev kutumbakam ~ To the large-hearted, the whole world is kin

When we say Mitakuye Oyasin - "All Our Relations" - many people don't understand the meaning of those words. The phrase Mitakuye Oyasin has a bigger meaning than just our blood relatives. Yes, it's true; we are all one human race. But the word Mitakuye means relations and Oyasin means more than family, more than a Nation, more than all of humankind. Everything that has a spirit.

"Enlightenment doesnt occur from sitting around visualizing images of light, but from integrating the darker aspects of the self into the conscious personality. "    ---Jung

In the shadow of death he produces life, and though the senses are
terrified, faith taking all for the best, is full of courage and
assurance.

Truth is One:
I have often said that if Jesus, Krishna, Buddha, and other true
emissaries of God came together, they would not quarrel, but would
drink from the same one cup of God-communion.
(Paramahansa Yogananda, `The Journey to Self-Realization' )

He who is called Krishna is also Siva and the Primal Sakti...He
again, who is called Jesus and Allah. 'There is only one Rama and He
has a thousand names.' Truth is one.
(Sri Ramakrishna, `The Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna' )

Faith is like radar that sees through the fog -- the reality of things
at a distance that the human eye cannot see.
(Corrie Ten Boom, `The Hiding Place')

Fearlessness means faith in God: faith in his protection, His
justice, His wisdom, His mercy, His love, and His Omnipresence... To be
fit for Self-realization man must be fearless.

Every man should have his own Holy Place where he keeps lonely vigil,
harkens for the Voices, and offers prayer and praise.
(Wabasha, Native American,  in `The Spiritual Athlete')

There is no path to Happiness. Happiness is the path. There is no path to Love. Love is the path. There is no path to Peace. Peace is the path.
