The Brotherhood Of Man And The Sisterhood Of All Humanity Poem by Marcus Czarnecki

Love.

Love for everything and everyone

Love for all people

Deep love

Priceless love

I love you.

Standing together - facing in the same direction - Supremely confident of your support

I support you in every way

Our mission - to love all beings

Father and Mother to all people

Caring for the children of the Buddha

We have the same mission

I love you

I love you

Let's create the brotherhood and sisterhood of love.

What about those who have no friends. Or those who have no family. Can I reach out to everyone and share a deep prayer of my heart about 'the brotherhood of man'.. 'the sisterhood of all humanity. The sanctity of life.. The profound respect for each living being - and respect the truth that - a single moment of the life of the poorest and most wretched of beggars - is more precious than all the gold and diamonds and treasures of the entire universe.

My heart was once so warped and twisted by division and the arrogance of a thousand different reasons to defend the notion that hierarchies were real.. my heart didn't function as a heart... It was a prison of contempts.. a fission of clever hatreds.. but since I found the truth of Buddhism.. and since i started to trust your trust of my heart.. I found my heart and in it I discovered the love of all mankind.. my heart heals me and begins to heave in rhythm to the beat of love... The beat of love for people.. the profound respect for the global human family is real. So if you have no one.. you have at least my love.. my respect.. my lack of judgement.. Because at the end of the day we are all people.. just people.. living breathing priceless treasures of the cosmos - children of the stars.

I love you Fumiko

We share the mission of this world

We love - Love

I love you.

In gratitude in Trust. Heart and Love

We fight together

Eternally



Written as a Love Poem based on guidance from my Mentor Daisaku Ikeda

"True love should be transformative, a process that amplifies our capacity to cherish not just one person but all people. It can make us stronger, lift us higher and deepen us as individuals. Yet, in the end, we can only partner with those befitting ourselves. The same is true of friendship. Only to the extent that one polishes oneself now can one hope to develop wonderful bonds of the heart in the future."
By Daisaku Ikeda
