When we come together seeing the specialties and the goodness of each other, there can be unity and strength. Unity means to be able to see virtues, absorb virtues, and donate virtues. Where there is unity, there are no problems. There is great happiness, joy, and love in unity.

But when there is quarreling, people say there must be some fault on both sides – one hand cannot create a quarrel. The quarrel arrives when both hands come together. When we clap our hands together, it can be with great joy and happiness. Both hands can come together with humility and respect, too, as a gesture of honor or prayer. But two hands can also come together in conflict – I must never allow that to happen.

It is everyone’s desire that heaven should come on earth. Heaven isn’t up above; we have to create it here on earth. Through our character and behavior, we can create heaven here.  ~ Dadi Janki
