Fear thrives in the absence of mutual understanding and diversity, and it is a poisonous weapon. But there is an antidote: compassion. Compassion combats fear.

Wisdom has to do with seeing clearly, seeing things as they are, that is, coming to terms with the way things are.

The passion of love bursting into flame is more powerful than death, stronger than the grave.

Love cannot be drowned by oceans or floods; it cannot be bought, no matter what is offered.


Song of Songs 8:6-7

Our practice exposes us to the underlying reality of the universe.

And that underlying reality is not just dead matter interacting at random. There is order and beauty and truth. And our universe is fully alive.

We ourselves are expressions of that life, order, beauty, and truth.

When meaningful change happens, it doesn’t mean a change in position but a change in how we live together and how we treat each other.
