"Relationship is not possible where there is greed, ambition and hope"
Relationship is not possible where there is greed, ambition and hope. Love comes only when the mind is quiet…If you have no love, you cannot resolve any social problem. You can go into politics, exhibit faith, try to reform the poor, write books or poems, but you are a dead human being.Life is a movement in relationship. Relationship is not possible where there is self-seeking. Self-seeking includes fear, greed, envy, jealousy, ambition, despair and hope. Using another...
"Try to find out how you agree with others"
“Whenever in any religious faith, dark or bright, we allow our minds to dwell upon the points in which we differ from other people, we are wrong, and in the devil’s power…At every moment of our lives we should be trying to find out, not in what we differ from other people, but in what we agree with them; and the moment we find we can agree as to anything that should be done, kind or good, (and who but fools couldn’t?) then do it; push at it together: you can’t...

Turn all boxes green to complete this task
What is the closest thing to love you have ever experienced? What was universal about that – not tied to the particular person or experience?
Give an example of illusory love. Have you fallen in love with or been infatuated with someone for reasons that you later realized were false?
What are you willing to do for a friend? What are willing to sacrifice? What would you never give or sacrifice?
How are you the same as others? What do you have in common with other human beings? With all of life, animals and plants? With inanimate things, like rocks and air?

Relationship Challenge
Look for the higher nature in anyone, the grandeur of any living being.
Do not mislead or take advantage of others for your own benefit.
Never give up on anyone.
Find one or two profound qualities in every person you meet.
Learn to see those who are invisible. For example, older people or those in poverty.
Focus on how you agree with others, not on how you differ.
Instead of fighting those causing harm, try help them.
Look upon harm-doers with the eyes of a mother.
Ask for depth in every relationship, at least a little.
"Most of us are lonely, and the older we get, the more lonely. We discover our emptiness, what it means to be lonely, to have no friend at all because you have led a superficial life and invested your thought, your feelings in another. Can you see all this and learn from it? Learn what it means to be lonely and not escape from it; look at it, live with it, see what is implied so that psychologically you depend on nobody. Then only will you know what it means to love."
