Rig Veda

 

And every crystal bead reflects not only the light from every other crystal in the net, but also every other reflection throughout the entire universe 

Kamand Kojouri

 We seek the fire of the spark that is already within us.

An entire sea of water can’t sink a ship unless it gets inside the ship. Similarly, the negativity of the world can’t put you down unless you allow it to get inside you.

BULLEH SHAH

Tear down the mosque and temple too, break all that divides But do not break the human heart as it is there that God resides.

Kabir, The Songs of Kabir, tr. by Rabindranath Tagore

 Inner Space, The Kingdom of the Heavens Within You

WITHIN this earthen vessel are bowers and groves, and within it is the Creator: Within this vessel are the seven oceans and the unnumbered stars. The touchstone and the jewel-appraiser are within; And within this vessel the Eternal soundeth, and the spring wells up. Kabir says: “Listen to me, my Friend! My Beloved Lord is within.”

Rumi

You have no need to travel anywhere - journey within yourself. Enter a mine of rubies and bathe in the splendor of your own light

MA Anandamayi

 "No two fruits are alike.Yet it is one life that throbs in every particle of the tree.

So, it is the same Atman everywhere."

WELCOME TO THE LAND OF MAYA

Author Unknown

 It has been said, to pursue a purely intellectual understanding of God is like trying to see with your hands. That which is without color or form, unlimited and unfathomable, beyond imagination, without beginning or end, is impossible to conceive with the mind. When it comes to that experience, the brain is not the tool we need. Yet, there is a way, it is built in, as natural as waking up in the morning. This is the message of the mystic poets, who see the relationship between a seeker and God as similar as between a child and a parent, close friends, or a lover and their Beloved. They emphasize simple things like love and faith and consistent remembrance and treating all with respect. Their love for the Creator awakens in the heart a yearning to see and experience for oneself. To touch the ocean of Oneness, to know with certainty, to be washed with contentment and peace, and feel a Love that does not die.

Jack Kerouac, "The Dharma Bums" 1958

 "One man practicing kindness in the wilderness is worth all the temples this world pulls."

Mukti BY Bibhuti Mohanty

No fear of death,no terror of time, no chains,no space, no mind....Atman/Ego recalls its pristine state...cosmic fluid that molds to gross sky flowing gracefully all over, oceans of existence all flow in him, he is untouched by Maya who too is recalled into his essence. Whole energy spectrum is absorbed..Who can describe that state oh dear when you spread all over as the truth pervading and permeating billions of brahmandas. Yes, you come down to ferry your empty boat flowing in u, you materialize ,you sleep, you work, you dance as others as the prabadha continues. But, the death is nailed, all samsara over for ever, all nectar, all eternal, all love...
