The purpose of life is to listen - to yourself, to your neighbor, to your world and to God and, when the time comes, to respond in as helpful a way as you can find... from within and without.
Kisi ko tum chaho aur woh tumhein thukra day, Yeh uski badnaseebi hai. Koi tumhein na chahey aur tum usse zaberdasti apna banana chaho, ye tumhare nafs ki zillat hai Hazrat Ali (A.S)
"I celebrate myself, and sing myself,
And what I assume you shall assume,
For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you."
-Walt Whitman (1819-1892)
"God is the friend of silence.
See how nature-trees, flowers, grass-grows in silence;
see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence...
We need silence to be able to touch souls."
-Mother Teresa (1910-1997)
