Throughout
history there have been people who have been known for their
love of God and His creation. Their stories are often still
with us today, even if they lived hundreds or thousands
of years ago. Many people have heard of Jesus Christ, Buddha,
Mohammed, Moses, Krishna, Rama, Meera, Rabi'a, and Francis
of Assissi. Why? Because their stories have been kept alive:
their lives provide us with inspiration, and are worthy
of emulating. There are probably many more saints, prophets
and masters who have passed away unannounced.
The lives of these great souls are worthy of study, to show us what is
possible for human beings, and as role models for us.
