Together in Times of Trouble
Verily, those who have attained to faith, as well as those who follow the Jewish faith, and the Christians, and the Sabians - all who believe in God and the Last Day and do righteous deeds - shall have their reward with their Sustainer; and no fear need they have, and neither shall they grieve.
(The Holy Qur'an)
Hurt not with the body, but use your body well. Hurt not with words, but use your words well. Hurt not with the mind, but use your mind well. O let us live in joy, although having nothing. In joy let us live like spirits of light.
(Dhammapada)
Teach us, good Lord, to serve the needs of others; Help us to give and not to count the cost; Unite us all, for we are born as brothers; Defeat our Babel with your Pentecost.
(Fred Kaan)
What profit is there in agreeing that universal friendship is good, and talking of the solidarity of the human race as a grand ideal? Unless these thoughts are translated into the world of action, they are useless. The wrong in the world continues to exist just because people talk only of their ideals, and do not strive to put them into practice. If actions took the place of words, the world's misery would very soon be changed into comfort.
('Abdu'l-Baha)
O ye beloved of the Lord! In this sacred Dispensation, conflict and contention are in no wise permitted. Every aggressor deprives himself of God's grace. It is incumbent upon everyone to show the utmost love, rectitude of conduct, straightforwardness and sincere kindliness unto all the peoples and kindreds of the world, be they friends or strangers. So intense must be the spirit of love and loving-kindness, that the stranger may find himself a friend, the enemy a true brother, no difference whatsoever existing between them.
(Baha'i World Faith)
The Lord is the strength of the weak Eternal, unborn, undying is the Lord. Revealed as true through the Guru's word. When one is weakened with pangs of hunger and poverty, No money and none to give consolation None to offer help and all work comes to nothing, Remember the Supreme Lord and gain the everlasting kingdom.
(Adi Granth)
