Quote of the Month
“Love is essentially self communicative. Those who do not have it catch it from others who have it. Those who get love from others cannot be its recipients without giving a response, which is in the essence of love. True Love in unconquerable and irresistible. And it goes on gathering power and spreading itself until it eventually transforms everyone whom it touches.” (Meher Baba)
