A human being is just a part of the whole we call the universe, a part only limited by time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest; a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion becomes a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to enhance all living creatures and the whole of nature, in its beauty.
