Geez,no one guessed for the World Cup finals. But, how about the MLB All Star game tonight? I am rooting for the National League to win.

OK, Germany has won their game and has taken 3rd place in the World Cup. Tomorrow, Spain takes on the Netherlands for 1st place -- who will win the game & be the World Cup Champion?

Who will win this year's Major League Baseball All-Star game?
American League or National League?

Yet again, no guesses. Well, I have my favorites, but I won't tell.

Truth is one,
Sages call it
By various names.

~ Rig Veda


Lead us from the unreal
To the Real.
Lead us from darkness
To light.
Lead us from death to Immortality.
Om, Peace Peace Peace.

~ Brhadaranyaka Upanishad


Take delight in the Lord
And He will give you
The desires of your heart.

~ Psalms, The Bible


Be a Light unto yourself.
~ Buddha


When you do things
From your soul,
You feel a river
Moving in you, a joy.

~ Rumi


The bliss of worship
And communion with God
Is the true wine, the wine
Of ecstatic love.
The goal of human life
Is to love God.

~ Ramakrishna


All things are bound
Together, all things
Connect, whatever
Befalls the earth,
Befalls also the
Children of the earth.

~ Native American Saying


Come unto me, all you
Who labor and are
Overburdened, and I will
Give you rest...
For I am gentle and
Humble in heart,
And you will find
Rest for your souls.

~ Jesus, New Testament


The Lord's humble
Servant begs for the
Lord's name, for the
Lord's praises, and
For devotional worship
Of the Lord God.

~ Guru Nanak


Don't you know that
You yourselves are
God's temple
And that God's Spirit
Lives in you?

~ I Cor. New Testament


Who sees me
In all things,
And all things in me,
He is never far from me,
And I am never far
From him.

~ Bhagavad Gita


All the power is
Within you;
You can do anything
And everything.
Believe in that;
Don't believe that
You are weak.
Stand up and express
The divinity within you.

~ Swami Vivekananda


One who has
Attained mastery
Over his mind is indeed
A greater conqueror
Than one who has
Vanquished a
Thousand enemies.

~ Buddha
