"This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no
need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple;
the philosophy is kindness."
— Dalai Lama
No gilded halls, no sacred plea,
No intricate creed, for you and me.
A simpler faith, a gentle art,
Within the heart, a tender start.
Our minds, a temple, vast and deep,
Where wisdom blooms, where secrets sleep.
Our hearts, a shrine, with love alight,
Kindness the flame, burning ever bright.
No need for priests, or scripture old,
Just acts of grace, a story told.
Compassion's touch, a helping hand,
A whispered word, across the land.
For in this world, of joy and strife,
A single act, of gentle life,
Can mend a soul, and ease the pain,
A kindness shown, will conquer all again.
No need for dogma, grand and vast,
Our temple built, within our cast.
Of empathy, and understanding's art,
A simple truth, within the heart.
