Love is the essential existential fact. It is our ultimate reality and our purpose on earth.

The highest level of creativity consists in being, not doing.

The number of nuclear bombs on the planet today - the sheer quantity of weapons of mass destruction in the possession of people and governments throughout the world - along with the fact that the use of brute force and militarism is an almost knee-jerk way of problem-solving on the planet today, makes the eradication of war the great moral issue of this generation.

To trust in the force that moves the universe is faith. Faith isn't blind, it's visionary.

Only love can bring us peace. And the experience of love is a choice we make, a mental decision to see love as the only real purpose and value in any situation.

In every moment we make a decision -- whether conscious or unconscious. Will I choose to open my heart, send love, withhold judgment and thus free myself from fear? Or will I close my heart, project fear instead of extending love, judge others, and thus bind myself to fear? The choice is mine and mine alone.

Your life has purpose as long as you dedicate it to love. It's not what we do but who we are that forms our biggest contribution.
