| Quote of the moment |
| I have read with interest and a good deal of dismay the decisions of the British Government regarding its Palestine policy.... Frankly I do not believe that the British are wholly correct in saying that the framers of the Palestine Mandate “could not have intended that Palestine should be converted into a Jewish state against the will of the Arab population of the country.”... [W]hile the Palestine Mandate undoubtedly did not intend to take away the right of citizenship and of taking part in the Government on the part of the Arab population, it nevertheless did intend to convert Palestine into a Jewish Home.... Certainly that was the impression that was given to the whole world at the time of the Mandate. |

| Quote of the moment |
| Your experience will enable you to understand what "consciousness" implies and what it is. Consciousness is a nonobstructing phenomenon, is nonmaterial, and has the quality of luminosity; that is, it reflects any object by arising in the aspect of that object. Consciousness is like a crystal stone; while a crystal is resting on a colored surface you cannot see the real untinted clarity of the crystal stone, but once you take the crystal away from the surface you can perceive its actual clarity. |
| ~ The Path to Tranquility, February 25, 14th Dalai Lama ~ |
