Reverence

"In the main, reverence for life dictates the same sort of behavior as the ethical principle of love. But reverence for life contains within itself the rationale of the commandment to love, and it calls for compassion for all creature life."
Albert Schweitzer

Reverence for all life is fundamental to Ahimsa; it is the ultimate rationale for Ahimsa - for how can one willingly do harm to that for which one has reverence - and towards which one has the love that reverence engenders.


Today

Open yourself to a feeling of reverence - and of love and compassion - for all forms of life you notice today - whether a cat, dog or hamster, bird, flower or tree, or each person that you meet during the day.

See what you can find out about Albert Schweitzer and his life and work.
