We have to be so genuine and gentle.
Otherwise, there is no way to work
with the universe at all.
You have a tremendous responsibility:
the first is to yourself,
to become gentle and genuine;
the second is to work for others
in that same way.
It is very important to realize
how powerful all of us are.
What we are doing may seem insignificant.
However, we could play a tremendous role
in developing peace throughout the world.
