Tenderness

So Much to Tell by Svetoslav Roerich. 19641. "Each aspirant must make every touch subtler, must show the tenderest solicitude. All the burdens of those close to him must be accepted wholeheartedly—that is how an impregnable fortress is created. And that is how to go forward!" [Heart, 560]

 

2. "I appreciate every manifestation of the heart. The tenderness of the heart is not easy to accumulate. It had to work hard to become responsive to someone else's pain and to know the highest joy." [Letters of Helena Roerich in 9 Volumes - 9. 139]

 

3. "You have that sincerity, tenderness and caring attitude that are so rare, but it is these qualities that give beauty and joy to life." [Letters of Helena Roerich in 9 Volumes - 6. 051]

 

4. "Even the tenderest, most compassionate heart should not be lacking in courage. The heart is a rock on which strongholds are built." [Heart, 476]

 

5. "A strong hand can touch very gently without losing its strength. Only weakness of spirit is inexcusable under any circumstances." [Facets of Agni Yoga 1958, 388]

 

6. "It is a most useful thing to be able to combine the tenderness of love with the austereness of duty. The new life will not be deterred by contrasts. It will not exert compulsion with one yoke, but will bestow breadth of receptivity." [New Era Community, 112]

 

7. "There is no other soul in the world that feels the beauty of the Higher World so tenderly, so deeply, thirsting for the higher Truth and treating enemies so kindly. ... [This is] the rarest quality of our Russian people..." [Letters of Helena Roerich in 9 Volumes - 9. 244]
