Grace on Hurricane Katrina & New OrleansWater is the most powerful force on Earth. It is gentle yet forceful, life-giving yet destructive, abundant yet scarce. This past week in New Orleans, and earlier this year with the great Tsunami, we have seen the devastating effect that water can have - we cannot live without it, yet we cannot survive in it. Entire cities have been washed away, and millions of people must begin anew with nothing to be grateful for but their lives. |

Deepak Chopra on Hurricane Katrina"Both Katrina and the tsunami are forcing us to globalize our thinking under crisis conditions. Instead of approaching global warming positively, we are facing it the hard way, by enduring droughts, floods, and extreme natural disasters in general. No one knows to what extent any of these events is connected to human activity. It seems that global warming is playing its part in the increased force of hurricanes; one cannot find a similar connection to tsunamis, which are more like earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, but devout believers in the Gaia hypothesis have conjectured that perhaps our war against Nature is causing these responses from the planet." |
Marianne Williamson on Katrina"Something very important is happening here. It's more than simply a hurricane, or the suffering of thousands who were neglected by their government during a time of great need. Such worldly occurrences reflect deeper truths. What is happening is a gigantic reckoning, as Americans are forced to come to terms with how very, very naked is the Emperor who we thought had such incredible clothes." |
Neale Donald Walsch about Katrina"When impossibly difficult times visit our lives, when our very survival appears to be threatened, we are faced with this ultimate question. There are those who say that humans are nothing more than animals -- biological beings, somewhat smarter, perhaps, than other animals on the planet, owing to our species' evolution, but animals nonetheless. And, these observers say, we revert to our most basic animal behaviors in times of extreme stress or threat." |
Gregg Braden about Hurricane Katrina"While we may not always know the "why" when tragedy strikes, scientific studies have now proven beyond any reasonable doubt that the power of prayer to improve conditions in times of need - specifically feeling-based prayer - is undeniable. Feeling-based prayer is a form of prayer that transcends any single religion or doctrine, and goes directly to the natural ability within each of us to participate in the events of life, healing, and peace directly, responsibly and effectively." |
Dalai Lama words on Hurricane Katrina"When we are passing through a really difficult period, it is very important to try to keep calm, cool. Sometimes on the top of sadness, sometimes frustrations, anger… So try to keep your mind calm, and then, then most important, should not lose hope and optimism. That's important. We must keep our determination, our self confidence and look at more wider perspective. I think worldwide response, I think this is a sign of, I think, human compassion, human sense of concern. It's, I think good, in difficult experiences, as humans, I believe, become … more compassionate, at least when another human brother or sister is passing through difficulties. In our blood the seed of compassion is there, because we are a social animal. … One individual, above individual. His or her success, or happy life entirely depends on others. There is saying in Tibetan 'Tragedy should be utilized as a source of strength.' I think, generally, where there's challenge we have the capacity to combat that challenge, I think, instead of sad or hopeless pessimism. When challenge is there, we must keep our determination, we must welcome that. That's important." |
More from Grace on the hurricane tragedy "There are a lot of mixed emotions in the air right now that many people are picking up on, both consciously and subconsciously. Those who have experienced tremendous suffering from hurricane Katrina are crying out for help energetically, and many compassionate souls are responding to their call by giving money, time, shelter and supplies. |
