Sir Hugh Walpole

 The most wonderful of all things in life, I believe, is the discovery of another human being with whom ones relationship has a glowing depth, beauty, and joy as the years increase. This inner progressiveness of love between two human beings is a most marvelous thing, it cannot be found by looking for it or by passionately wishing for it. It is a sort of Divine accident.

Sri Ramakrishna

 

When the Godhead [the Father] is thought of as creating, preserving, and destroyinq, It is known as the Personal God, Saguna Brahman, or the Primal Energy, Adyasakti [the Mother]. Again, when It is thought of as beyond the three gunas [the three qualities of the phenomenal world – sattwa, rajas, and thamas, or balance, energy, and sloth], then It is called the Attributeless Reality, Nirguna Brahman, beyond speech and thought; this is the Supreme Brahman, Parabrahman. (31)

“The Conquest of Illusion”

 

“And such it is, it is an invasion from another world, from the only real world, the world of Reality; it is the vision of truth, or intuition, which, in that world, knows with lightning-like rapidity and with immediate certainty and which flashes down its message of truth into the dullness of our illusion bound intellect”

Maharaj Charan Singh

 For ages the mind has been developing an intense longing for the things of this world which ostensibly satisfy it for some time but cease to do so after a while. The best way to divert the mind from the mundane baubles is to give it a taste of the inner bliss which far transcends any earthly joy.

Joseph P. Kauffman

 

You are not limited to this body, to this mind, or to this reality—you are a limitless ocean of Consciousness, imbued with infinite potential. You are existence itself.

W. Somerset Maugham,

 

[The goal is] "liberation from the bondage of rebirth. According to the Vedantists the self, which they call the atman and we call the soul, is distinct from the body and its senses, distinct from the mind and its intelligence; it is not part of the Absolute, for the Absolute, being infinite, can have no parts but the Absolute itself. It is uncreated; it has existed form eternity and when at least it has cast off the seven veils of ignorance will return to the infinitude from which it came. 

Michael Kewley

 

With wisdom, everything is seen as clouds passing through an empty sky, some pleasant, some unpleasant, some attractive and some unattractive, but all having the same universal quality of impermanence (Anicca). There is nothing to hold on to and nothing to understand. There is only this moment, and in this moment the whole of our life exists.

Hazrat Inayat Khan

 

The real abode of God is in the heart of mankind; when it is frozen with bitterness or hatred, the doors of the shrine are closed, the light is hidden.

Danna Faulds

 

That's how you came here, like a star without a name... Rumi Be The Energy Trust the energy that courses through you. Trust - then take surrender even deeper. Be the energy. Don't push anything away. Follow each sensation back to its source and focus your awareness there. Be the ecstasy... Be unafraid of consummate wonder. Energy so new, so vulnerable, that you don't know who you are. Be the energy, and paradoxically, be at peace. Dare to be your own illumination, And blaze a trail across the clear night sky...

Unveil to us the face of the true Spiritual Sun, Hidden by a disc of golden light, That we may know the truth And do our whole duty As we journey to Thy Sacred Feet

We have sought for firm ground and found none. The deeper we penetrate, the more restless becomes the universe; all is rushing about and vibration is a wild dance.
