Love and Truth: Chesed ve’Emet

Chesed ve’Emet nifgashu,
Tzedek v’Shalom nashaku
Hebrew for Love And Truth
When Love and Truth meet,
then Justice and Peace will kiss. (Psalm 85:11)

Psalm 85 teaches us that the intimate encounter between Love and Truth will engender a world where Justice and Peace prevail. When we listen carefully to the ground of Being, the Earth itself will sprout the Truth, and the wide expanse of Heaven will open to show us the way to Justice. We aim for that place of “the Kiss” where our inner wholeness is expressed as love through everything that we do.
