This weekend, Sant Rajinder Singh Ji Maharaj arrived in the verdant city of Houston—the world capital of space exploration—for a two-day spiritual program. He focused his talk this afternoon on the importance of experiencing the love and kindness that is embedded deep within each and every one of us.

When we spread love and kindness, when we extend a helping hand, we find that the fragrance of our deeds travel far. We should strive to always be loving, caring, and kind in our interactions such that there is peace and harmony in our lives. When we are at peace, we are more stable and are able to still our minds as we sit in silence. This helps with our spiritual development so we can make the most of the golden opportunity of this human birth.
