“Divine sound is the cause of all manifestation. The knower of the mystery of sound knows the mystery of the whole universe.”

Eclipse of the light of heaven, eclipse of God - such indeed is the character of the historic hour through which the world is now passing.
Samael Aun Weor
“We need to have the mind of a child in order to enter into the Major Mysteries. We need to be like children in our minds and hearts. We need to be perfect as our Father who is in heaven is perfect. The great mysteries are not achievable through vain intellectualisms; the Major Mysteries are achievable with the heart of a child.”
Swami Sarvapriyananda
"The whole World is an appearence of Brahman, and you are Brahman. If you realise that, it solves all the problems. Because it's not just one "object" that is an appearence , the entire Universe is your appearence, now what objects will you desire ? Or what will you hate ?
The Upanishads
Bright but hidden, the Self dwells in the heart. She is the source of Love and may be known through Love, but not through thought...
Joseph Campbell
Mythology is not a lie, mythology is poetry, it is metaphorical. It has been well said that mythology is the penultimate truth–penultimate because the ultimate cannot be put into words. It is beyond words. Beyond images, beyond that bounding rim of the Buddhist Wheel of Becoming. Mythology pitches the mind beyond that rim, to what can be known but not told.
E. B. White
I would feel more optimistic about a bright future for man if he spent less time proving that he can outwit Nature and more time tasting her sweetness and respecting her seniority.
Adyashanti
“No spiritual teaching is a direct path to enlightenment. In fact, there is no such thing as a path to enlightenment, simply because enlightenment is ever present in all places and at all times. What you can do is to remove any and all illusions, especially the ones you value most and find the most security in, that cloud your perception of Reality. Let go of clinging to your illusions and resisting what is, and Reality will suddenly come into view.”
Manly P. Hall, On ‘Destiny’
“What lies beyond the magnitudes and immensities of the physical existence? . .
The ancients believed that the star-strewn heavens was nothing but a beautiful jeweled robe concealing the true structure and nature of the infinite. That the infinite is not an infinitude of stars or suns or moons; it is not an infinity of microbes, either. The infinite is a tremendous reality beyond our conception.”@argonautsoul
There is no life as spiritual or non-spiritual.
There is only life.
And to live is to be attuned to the truth in the innermost core of one’s being/soul.
- Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
I AM here to serve.
I AM here to inspire. I AM here to love. I AM here to live my truth. I Just Came Here To Get High.
In the mirror of your mind all kinds of pictures appear and disappear. Knowing that they are entirely your own creations, watch them silently come and go. Be alert, but not perturbed…
~ Papaji In the Presence of All Be Nothing
That ocean of eternal peace is you.
What is the difficulty that we suffer from? It is that we seek peace elsewhere and do not experience that we are peace incarnate itself.
Jack Kerouac, Lonesome Traveler
And I realize that no matter where I am, whether in a little room full of thought, or in this endless universe of stars and mountains, it’s all in my mind.

''And forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair.''
Rumi
“Speak Little. Learn the words of eternity. Go beyond your tangled thoughts and find the splendour of paradise.”
Samael Aun Weor
“Wisdom and Love must balance mutually. Wisdom without Love it’s a destructive element. Love without Wisdom can leads us to error: love is law, but conscious love.”
-Lao Tzu
Express yourself completely, then keep quiet.

~ Hermann Hesse
When someone is seeking,” said Siddartha, “It happens quite easily that he only sees the thing that he is seeking; that he is unable to find anything, unable to absorb anything, because he is only thinking of the thing he is seeking, because he has a goal, because he is obsessed with his goal. Seeking means: to have a goal; but finding means: to be free, to be receptive, to have no goal. You, O worthy one, are perhaps indeed a seeker, for in striving towards your goal, you do not see many things that are under your nose.
Simone Weil, Waiting for God
“To give up our imaginary position as the center, to renounce it, not only intellectually but in the imaginative part of our soul, that means to awaken to what is real and eternal, to see the true light and hear the true silence.”
Osho
Don’t allow the fear to overpower you, allow love to overpower you. Love comes from the center, fear always comes from the periphery; don’t allow this periphery to be dominant.
Adyashanti, The End of Your World
“In a true awakening, it is realised very clearly that even the awakening itself is not personal. It is universal Spirit or universal consciousness that wakes up to itself. Rather than the “me” waking up, what we are wakes up from the “me.” What we are wakes up from the seeker. What we are wakes up from the seeking.”
Nisargadatta Maharaj
The fourth state (turiya) is a state of pure witnessing, detached awareness, passionless and wordless. It is like space, unaffected by whatever it contains.
