Forgiveness

To begin this Interfaith blog I thought I would keep things simple. While I finish up on the first post I thought I would write here the dying words of two of the worlds great spiritual leaders. Both Buddha and Christ died from the actions of another man and both forgave.

THE BUDDHA


Be ye lamps unto yourselves.
All compounds are transitory.
Work out your own salvation
with diligence.

THE CHRIST

Ye are the light of the world.
Ye are not of this world even as I am not.
Work out your own salvation with fear and
trembling.1
