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