If We Lived By These 10 Great Quotes The World Would Change

There appears to be much conflict, suffering and violence occurring in the world at the moment. While propaganda plays a part in geopolitics and government agendas and as corporations pit humanity and the environment against the economy, we have to question, what is the purpose and end game of creating such suffering and degradation? We must ask ourselves, what is it all for? Why do countries and governments continue to provoke, massage and espouse such messages of separation? What is with this perverse agenda of domination, manipulation and control? Who wins in the end? It seems strange when we have access to so much knowledge and collective wisdom that there continues to be such suffering, conflict and ignorance. While I don’t have the answers I can only turn to those who have gone before us to give some insight into what a world of harmony, love and compassion looks like…1.” Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better”. - Albert Einstein2.“A man is but the product of his thoughts what he thinks, he becomes.” - Mahatma Gandhi3.“In dwelling, live close to the ground. In thinking, keep to the simple. In conflict, be fair and generous. In governing, don’t try to control. In work, do what you enjoy. In family life, be completely present.” - Lao Tzu4.“Power is of two kinds. One is obtained by the fear of punishment and the other by acts of love. Power based on love is a thousand times more effective and permanent then the one derived from fear of punishment.” - Mahatma Gandhi5.“Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.” - Buddha6.“We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked and homeless. The poverty of being unwanted, unloved and uncared for is the greatest poverty. We must start in our own homes to remedy this kind of poverty.” - Mother Teresa7.“Do the difficult things while they are easy and do the great things while they are small. A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.” - Lao Tzu8.“Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.” - Buddha9.“Treat those who are good with goodness, and also treat those who are not good with goodness.

Krishna, great article and so true. My Gramma would totally agree with you about vegetarianism. She had a total exam by a doctor back when she was in her thirties and he wanted to know everything she ate and her exercise program, he told her if she would continue what she was doing.she should live over hundred years and be youthful and in good health. She was total vegetarian and doing the Yoga diet, nothing passed over the fire, everything raw, she had a juicer, made her own yogurt and sprouted seed and things like spinach salad well she knows all about foods. Now so much pesticides on them and most are Monsanto foods that it isn't the same. She would buy carrots by the fifty pound bag, organic ones she said cost $7 and you know what they cost now and not organic either. She tries to get all of us to be vegetarian but frankly I have to admit I like a big Mac and Mexican food at times, otherwise I try to follow Gramma's way of eating... she was doing Hatha Yoga at the time, too.
