True spirituality also is to be aware that we are interdependent with everything and everyone else, even our smallest, least significant thought, word, and action have real consequences throughout the universe . . .
. . . Throw a pebble into a pond. It sends a shiver across the surface of the water. Ripples merge into one another and create new ones. | Sogyal Rinpoche, 'The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying'
