All the tragedy in the world, in the individual, and in the multitude, comes from lack of harmony.  And harmony is best given by producing harmony in one’s own life.  Meenakshi Sharma

We are here to awaken from the illusion of our separateness.  Thich Nhat Hanh

It is lack of love for ourselves that inhibits our compassion for others.  If we make friends with ourselves, then there is no obstacle to opening our hearts and minds to others.  Pema Chodron

When we accept that we alone have the power to determine whether we live in harmony, then we’ll understand that it is our choice whether we mostly accept peace and joy, or pain and despair as themes in our lives.   Maya Gentry

Have enough courage to trust love one more time and always one more time.  Maya Angelou

The trials on the road to world harmony are no greater than the courage of those who accept the challenge.   Carl Lewis
