“An eye for an eye will only make the whole world blind.” ― Mahatma Gandhi
“Better than a thousand hollow words is one word that brings peace.” - Buddha
Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called the children of God. - Matthew, V:9
De eerste voorwaarde om met anderen in vrede leven te kunnen is vrede met jezelf te hebben. - Aristide Gabelli
“You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one. I hope someday you'll join us. And the world will live as one.” ― John Lennon
“In some sense man is a microcosm of the universe; therefore what man is, is a clue to the universe. We are enfolded in the universe.” – David Bohm
“The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.” – Albert Einstein
It is in vain that we pretend to arrive at the fullness of truth by reasoning. By this way we reach only rational truth; still it is infinitely precious, and full of resources against the assaults of false philosophy. The natural lights of every man of aspiration have indeed no other font, and it is therefore of almost universal use; but it cannot impart that sentiment and tact of active and radical truth from which our nature should derive its life and being. This kind of truth is given of itself alone. Let us make ourselves simple and childlike, and our faithful guide will cause us to feel its sweetness. If we profit by these first graces, we shall taste very soon those of the pure spirit, afterwards those of the Holy Spirit, then those of the Supreme Sanctity, and, lastly, in the interior man we shall behold the all. - Louis Claude de Saint-Martin
I would like to draw your kind attention to two special events, the Netherlands Jurisdiction of AMORC will be organizing in the coming months. First there's the Meditation for Peace on 22 September 2012 in The Hague and on 10 November 2012, also in The Hague, the symposium Science & Spirituality with Lynne MacTaggert, Tom McFarlane and Michel Bénot.
Well a Medication for Peace I already hear you say why is that so special? Well this one is! This meditation is organizated with the Lectorium Rosicrucianum, the Anthroposophical Society, the Theosophical Society and the Sufis! Most interesting speaker here imho will be Sufi Dr. H.J. Witteveen (12 June 1921). Economist Wittveen is former Dutch Finance Minister and President of the IMF. The meditation will appropriately be held in the Peace Palace, Carnegieplein 2, The Hague.
The Netherlands Jurisdiction of AMORC covers The Netherlands, the Dutch-speaking population of Belgium, The Netherlands Antilles and Surinam. Its Grand Master is Klaas-Jan Bakker.
