Spirituality Quotes

“The modern child may early in his or her existence have natural inclinations toward spirituality. The child may have imagination, originality, a simple and individual response to reality, and even a tendency to moments of thoughtful silence and absorption.

“Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing.”

“Nirvana or lasting enlightenment or true spiritual growth can be achieved only through persistent exercise of real love.”
