Kindness: The First Gift

To be here is immense.

- Rainer Maria Rilke -

Kindness: The First Gift

"Kindness has gracious eyes; it is not small-minded or competitive; it wants nothing back for itself... Kindness casts a different light, an evening light that has the depth of color and patience to illuminate what is complex and rich in difference." John O'Donohue takes us on an eloquent exploration of kindness and its role in the unfolding universe. { read more }

Finding Those Three Magical Words

Whatever you do, make it an offering to me.

- -Bhagavad Gita- -

Finding Those Three Magical Words

How easy is it to "love your neighbor" when your intoxicated neighbor wakes you up in the middle of the night and insults you? For people dedicated to the path of nonviolence, like Arun Dada and his wife Mira Ba, it's not only the right thing to do, it's the only thing you can do. Instead of getting angry, they chose to try and transform the relationship through compassion. And in doing so they inspired their neighbor to replace his steady stream of obscenities with three words embodying their shared highest ideals. Read on for this profound story of forgiveness and friendship. { read more }

Be The Change

This Thanksgiving, as you give gratitude for blessings in your life, think of someone with whom you have a conflict. How might you transform your interactions with this person, with the inspiration of Arun Dada and Mira Ba?

College For All: Sebastian Thrun, Udacity

We need to bring learning to people instead of people to learning.

- Elliot Masie -

College For All: Sebastian Thrun, Udacity

Most employers agree that new graduates lack the skills necessary to succeed. And yet, the cost of college tuition is rising far faster than the average family can afford. The frustration is clear; change is desperately needed. Now, thanks to innovators like Udacity and Coursera, and the advent of "massive open online courses" (MOOCs), both students and employers are being assured a much more predictable outcome. This emerging technology is more than just an online course system, it is a means to radically expand access to world-class instruction while producing far greater results.

Be The Change

Take time to broaden your horizons. Consider an online course to help further your understanding.

Sources of Light

There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it.

- -Edith Wharton- -

Sources of Light

When Kobun Otogawa was asked in the wake of 9/11, "How can I deal with the enormous fear and anger that I feel about what happened?" He replied simply, "Do one kind thing for someone every day." And though the advice might seem overly simplistic, it does cause us to realize - that it is through our own light that this world made be made a little brighter. { read more }
