A common space for harmonic peacemakers
"You'll end up disappointed if you think people will do for you as you do for them. Unfortunately, not everyone has the same heart as you."
It's a lesson many of us learn through quiet heartache: the inherent disappointment that can arise when we expect others to reciprocate our efforts, our kindness, or our loyalty in equal…

"You cannot heal in the same environment that made you sick."
Healing requires a shift, a fundamental change of scenery, both internal and external.
Staying in the environment that caused the sickness is like trying to mend a broken bone while repeatedly banging it against the same wall. It's not about blame, but about…

Under the spreading chestnut tree, I sold you and you sold me.

in a world traumatized by greed and violence, be an anomaly. Practice nonviolent noncooperation with corruption, crime and evil. Choose life and the Earth. Even the smallest choice is a choice. Even the smallest love is love. Even the smallest peace is peace. Make every choice a choice for change.…

Offering of Greetings
"On my walking path, I often see elderly grandmothers and grandfathers walking alone.
Whenever I greet them, they respond with
bright, cheerful smiles.
There’s not a single exception.
Their smiles make me smile in turn.
Even on days when there’s nothing else to smile…

„The Cycle of Return“
I was not born once.
I unfold.
From something
that has no beginning.
The stars do not remember me.
They are me.
Their rhythm lives beneath my skin.
My breath is older than my name.
The Earth turns.
Not just to spin,
but to listen.
The sea listens.
To the moon’s quiet longing.
To the deep pull of memory
that isn’t memory at…

Shefqet Avdush Emini – “The Face Without a Name”: A Spiritual Eruption in Color and Form
In this striking painting by the renowned artist Shefqet Avdush Emini, we are no longer facing a portrait, but standing before an icon of universal pain, of the disfiguration of the human being, and of the dissolution of identity in the face of the merciless realities of our time. This work is not merely an aesthetic expression, but an…

"Peace isn’t something you find after fixing everything that troubles you. Life will always have problems. The key is to focus on what you can control and let go of anything that doesn’t truly need your attention right now."
It's a tender whisper our hearts sometimes forget: peace isn't a prize waiting for a perfect,…

"The quality of people around you matters more than the number of people!"
The true measure of a fulfilling life isn't found in the sheer quantity of relationships, but in the quality of connections we cultivate. Surrounding yourself with individuals who hold you to a higher standard than you hold yourself is an act of…

The mass murderers attack. Death flies over. The pilots feet never touch the ground.
Victims become body parts dispersed amid craters and shells of smoldering rubble. Blood-graffiti is splattered on the gravestone-slabs of shattered cement. Concrete broken like hammered glass.
Those who survive the…

It will do you no harm to find yourself ridiculous.
Resign yourself to be the fool you are.
You will find that you survive humiliation
And that’s an experience of incalculable value.
That is the worst moment, when you feel you have lost
The desires for all that was most desirable,…

Two days ago was the full moon 15th day of Saga Dawa, the day 2600 years ago that Shakyamuni Buddha was both born and enlightened, 35 years later. I know everyone has and is trying hard during this Saga Dawa month to avoid harm, even little harms. On top of that, I know everyone has been practicing love and compassion as much as…

"There’s no prize for racing through life. Slow down. Feel the breeze. Taste your food. Laugh with someone you love.
Slow doesn’t always ‘win the race,’ but it feels a lot more joy."
In a world that often celebrates speed and constant hustle, it’s important to remember that life isn’t a race to be won—it’s a journey to be…

As we journey through the unpredictable maze of life, we encounter challenges that can shake us to our core, threatening to dim the light within us. In these moments of adversity, it's tempting to withdraw, to let despair cast a shadow over our spirit. Yet, amidst the chaos, there is a powerful truth to hold onto: remain alive. Do not…

Two days from now will be the most sacred and holy day of the Buddhist year. It is the full moon day of Saga Dawa when Shakyamuni Buddha was born and became enlightened. Our actions of behavior, speech, and mind will be astronomically increased. This means the consequences of our actions will be multiplied greatly, based on whether…
