O hidden Life,
vibrant in every atom,
O hidden Light,
shining in every creature,
O hidden Love,
embracing all in oneness.
May all who feel themselves
as one with thee
know they are one
with every other.

- Annie Besant

Three men went into the jungle on different occassions and saw a chameleon. "A chameleon is red," said the first man. "No a chameleon is green," said the second man. "Nonsense, a chameleon is brown," said the third man. Those who disagree about the nature of God are like these three men.

The shining Wisdom of Reality
Illumines all like the cloudless sky.

- Hundred Thousand Songs of Milarepa

This itself is the whole of the journey,
opening your heart to that which is lovely.
Because of their feeling for the lovely,
beings who are afraid of birth and death,
aging and decaying, are freed from their fear.
This is the way you must train yourself:
I will become your friend
and an intimate of the lovely.
To do this I must closely
observe and embrace all
states of mind that are good.

- Samyutta Nikaya
From "Buddha Speaks"

Recognize that you have the courage within you to fulfill the purpose of your birth.
Summon forth the power of your inner courage and live the life of your dreams.
