We belong to the people and places we care for, and that care for us. That belonging makes us responsible to one another. In Daaji’s “An Inner Fire without Smoke,” Babuji’s bond with Lalaji rests on a sense of belonging that shaped both his attitude and his actions. When Lalaji eventually placed his work in Babuji’s hands, Babuji carried it forward with the devotion and care that had always defined their bond. That kind of belonging threads through this month’s issue. Belonging is not possession. It is a quality that awakens in us a sense of responsibility arising from within rather than being imposed from outside. One of our essay winners writes that a single tree stands alone, while a forest endures through the interweaving of roots and branches. In “Carbon-Neutral Campuses” and “Heartfulness in Schools,” that responsibility extends to the world around us and the people who share it. Alienation says, “Not my problem.” Belonging says otherwise. That difference in attitude shapes everything we do.
