Come behold this world, which is like unto an ornamented royal chariot, wherein fools flounder, but for the wise there in no attachment.
-Dhammapada "Dhammapada 171"
Come behold this world, which is like unto an ornamented royal chariot, wherein fools flounder, but for the wise there in no attachment.
Correcting oneself is correcting the whole world. The sun is simply bright. It does not correct anyone. Because it shines, the whole world is full of light. Transforming yourself is a means of giving light to the whole world.
Compassion: I don’t think that there is another world as important in marking a person’s inner growth. No other word completely conveys what this single word conveys.
The "world" is expanding on the Principle of Evolution. This expansion is
not just confined to its time and space but is also taking place at the level of
consciousness; which too has gradually traversed from being an amoeba to a
human being.

The world will be balanced when we are balanced.
The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.
Learn to make the whole world your own. No one is a stranger, my child; this whole world is your own.
It is not that the world has deteriorated today. You perceive the world as you are.
The world has been the same from the very beginning; neither has there been
a virtuous age (Dharma yuga) nor a sin age (Papi yuga). Here, everything has
always been dependent on an individual's perspective with which he looks at it.
-Deep Trivedi
If you want to leave the world better than you found it, then use your heart of compassion and your life of concern.
Words have the power to both destroy and heal. When words are both true and kind, they can change our world.
