The End









"A human being is part of the whole...
He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings
as something separated from the rest -
a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness.
This delusion is kind of a prison for us,
restricting us to our personal desires
and to affection to a few persons nearest to us.
Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison
by widening our circle of compassion
to embrace all living creatures,
and the whole (of) nature in its beuty."

Albert Einstein

Det är så erbarmligt lite
en människa kan förstå.
Man skulle ej grubbla och tänka
men tänker och grubblar ändå.
Och dagarna fogas till veckor
och veckorna fogas till år.
Man skulle ej snärjas av grubbel
så hastigt som livet går.

Nils Ferlin.
