Hosea 6:1-6. For it is love that I desire, not sacrifice and knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings.
| Love people
even in their sin, for that is the semblance of Divine Love, and is the highest
love on earth. Love all of God’s creation, the whole and every grain of sand of
it. Love every leaf, every ray of God’s light. Love the animals, love the plants,
love everything. If you love everything you will perceive the divine mystery in
things. Once you perceive it, you will begin to comprehend it better every day.
And you will come at last to love the whole word with an all-embracing love. - Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamazov |
