Zgodovina

Obstajajo tri vrste zgodovine: 1. Kar se je zares zgodilo – to je za vedno izgubljeno. 2. Kar večina ljudi misli, da se je zgodilo – to lahko z veliko truda celo izvemo. 3. Kar želijo ljudje na oblasti, da bi prihodnji rodovi mislili, da se je zgodilo – to je zapisano v zgodovinskih knjigah in učbenikih.

There are three kinds of history: The fist is what really happened, and that is forever lost. The second is what most  people thought happened, and we can recover that with assiduous effort. The third is what the people in power wanted the future to think happened, and that is 90% of the history in books.

Je pardonne à tous ceux qui ont pu m'offenser me blesser, ou me faire du tort volontairement ou involontairement, sciemment ou inconsciemment. Je demande pardon à tous ceux que j'ai pu offenser ou blesser, ou à qui j'ai pu faire du tort volontairement ou involontairement, sciemment ou inconsciemment. Que je puisse connaître la paix, le bonheur, l'éveil, la conscience et la libération! Que tous les êtres puissent connaître la paix, le bonheur, l'éveil, la conscience et la libération! by Robert Paquin

I forgive to all those who have offended me hurt me, or did me wrong voluntarily or involuntarily, consciously or unconsciously. I ask forgiveness to all those I have offended or hurt, intentionally or unintentionally, consciously or unconsciously. That I may know peace, happiness attentiveness, consciousness and freedom! May all beings enjoy peace, happiness attentiveness, consciousness and freedom!

Odpuščam vsem, ki so me užalili, me prizadeli, me ranili, hote ali nehote, zavedno ali nezavedno. Prosim za odpuščanje vsem, ki sem jih užalila ali prizadela, hote ali nehote, zavedno ali nezavedno. Naj živim v miru, naj živim v sreči, naj bom pozorna, naj se zavedam, naj bom svobodna! Naj vsi ljudje živijo v miru, naj vsi ljudje živijo v sreči, naj bodo pozorni, naj se zavedajo, naj bodo svobodni! (prevod: K)
