“Old age is the fourth stage. By the time one reaches this stage of his journey, he must have discovered that the joys available in this world are trivial and fleeting. He must be equipped with the higher knowledge of spiritual joy, available through delving into the inner spring of Bliss. Through his experiences, his heart must have softened and be filled with compassion. He has to be engrossed in promoting the progress of all beings without distinction. And he must be eager to share with others the knowledge he has accumulated and the benefit of his experiences.” WorldHeartAgeSpiritualJoyCompassionProgressJourneyShareStageThis WorldHigherBenefitsSpringFilledAvailableOld AgeBlissDistinctionFourthFleetingPromotingDelvingSpiritual Joy Author:Sathya Sai Baba
“I believe with all my heart that civilization has produced nothing finer than a man or woman who thinks and practices true tolerance.

That men of all creeds have fundamental common objectives is a fact one must learn by the process of education. How to work jointly toward these objectives must be learned by experience.” ThinkingMenBelieveHeartArtMadeSaidFactsTodayBeliefI BelieveProcessCommonEducationQualityPracticeProgressMy HeartCivilizationMercyPrejudiceFundamentalsToleranceObjectivesHaving FunSuspectsCreeds Author:Frank Knox
