We are One.

We are the mother who has no food for her children
and the farmer whose crops have withered without rain.
We are the athlete who just ran the fastest mile
and the visionary who started the digital revolution.

We are everyone at the same time
we are our individual selves.
Our differences are merely details
in the great tapestry of Us.

When our differences no longer matter,
we'll put contention to rest,
then we'll know peace.

 

"Meditation is not a way to enlightenment, nor is it a method of achieving anything at all. It is peace itself. It is the actualization of wisdom, the ultimate truth of the oneness of all things." Dogen Zenji, founder of the Soto school of Zen Buddhism (1200-1253)
