Words that enlighten the soul are more precious than jewels. Words have the power to alter a person's thinking. Like a bee which keeps collecting honey from the blooming flowers, I began to collect such thoughts from whatever source I could lay my hands upon. This book is a collection of such thoughts.

Like short fiction, each piece leads to a point of illumination, evoking an original, unmeditated response that we are sure to treasure.

We thankfully acknowledge the collection of these thoughts and articles from various sources, most of whom have given permission to edit and reproduce. Some could not be contacted but we could not resist the temptation to include their profound thoughts in this book, as we are sure of their implicit and gracious permission. Names of the authors of individual articles have not been mentioned as most of these are collective thoughts. These articles were collected in bits and pieces and names of some of the authors could not be traced. Anyway, the contributors are too magnanimous to mind such trivialities.

If these thoughts are able to provide you even a little joy, a little greater self-confidence, a little greater purity in life, I will consider my efforts greatly rewarded. Let these thoughts serve you as a change agent and provide you with a sense of fulfillment.
