Gifts

Your gifts cannot reach maturity until they are used to SERVE the greater good.

“If you bring forth what is within you, it will save you.”

I do not give lectures.  I do not give courses.  I do not give charity.  I give myself.
- adapted from Walt Whitman

When we give ourselves, when we share from our sense of purpose, we go beyond the physical into the spiritual.  This gift is enduring.  It is indestructible, it is immeasurable.  Weapons can not destroy it, fire can not burn it, water can not drown it.  It is timeless.

We must strive to serve the welfare of the world.  Our devotion to service will attain the goal of life.  Do your work with the welfare of others in mind.
- Adapted from Stephen Cope

“When you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project, all your thoughts break their bonds.  Your mind transcends limitation, your consciousness expands in every direction, and you find yourself in a new, great and wonderful world.  Dormant forces, faculties and talents become alive and you discover yourself to be a greater person by far than you ever dreamed yourself to be.”
- Patanjali

“Whatever you can do
Or dream you can. 
Begin it. 
Boldness has genius, power and magic in it. 
BEGIN IT NOW.”

- Goethe
