"There is no such thing as a simple act of compassion or an inconsequential act of service. Everything we do for another person has infinite consequences. Every action gives rise to a ripple effect, just as a pebble that is tossed into a pond sends out wave after wave, widening and covering more and more space."

"The call to be of service to one another, the intuition that prompts us to use our power to help others, is wired into our physical and spiritual nature."

"Know that underlying the storm is peace, and under the chaos is order. Use the power of faith as your anchor: faith that there is a reason why things happen as they do; faith that you will make it through a crisis; faith that you are moving forward to a better place."

"Science and religion tell us that we are energetically interdependent; that matter and energy are the same throughout the universe. Our spiritual interconnectedness and intuitive signals form, in effect, an energetic Internet."

"Our heart's primary task, of course, is to recognize our own spirit in every stranger and to 'love our neighbor as ourselves.'"

"Everything we do COUNTS. There is really no such thing as a small act of service or goodness. This is in accord with most of the world's spiritual traditions."
|
|
22 |
"We are spiritually responsible for each other and we are meant to discover and nurture the divine that exists within each person."
|
|
23 |
"Being of service is not an option, it is a biological necessity. Every kind action we do for someone is a reanimation of our own life force – and of the other person's. Many spiritual traditions share the Golden Rule: treat others as you would like to be treated.'"
|
|
24 |
"We all are one and even if those specific words are not taught to us, we develop an inner sense of their spiritual truth."
