Isn't the Universe strange? A positive thing, like Newman's salad dressing profits, is out into the ethos and it changes into something far greater? We never know how our lives will be used to serve the greater good until we venture forth. Paul Newman took the pain of his life and it didn't save his son but it helped many other suffering people. Thanks for giving me something to think about today.
Powerful story! It reminds me that there are still good people in the world. Perhaps we just start by being considerate and tolerant. Thanks for sharing.
I've been really impressed by Melinda Gates' philanthropic work over the years. Both with and without her ex-husband's participation. It seems like she truly believes in giving back and making the world a better place.
When goodness grows weak ,
When evil increases ,
I make myself a Body .
In every age , I come back
To deliver the Holy ,
To destroy the sin of the sinner ,
To establish righteousness .
One of the great distinctions between Western and Eastern thought is that the West tends to think in terms of linear time span ___ the world and human history having a definitive beginning , middle and end . On this horizontal time line , God has specific , historical interventions .
In contrast , the East thinks in terms of great cycles : ascension and descension , creation and destruction , growth and decay ; these cycles are seen as continually repeating waves in an Eternal Cosmic Process . Civilizations , Religions and Individuals are all part of this on going cycle .
The appearance of the Avatar (God manifestation in human form) is essential to this Eternal Movement of Spiritual Decline by regeneration .
