I hope that you understand what the word ‘spiritual’ really means. It means to search for – to investigate – the true nature of the mind. There’s nothing spiritual outside. My rosary isn’t spiritual; my robes aren’t spiritual. Spiritual means the mind and spiritual people are those who seek its nature.

Paramahamsa Yogananda
Be as simple as you can be; you will be astonished to see how uncomplicated and happy your life can become.
Rumi
Your task is not to seek love, but to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.
Guru Granth Sahib Ji
Recognize the Lord’s Light within all, and do not consider social class or status; there are no classes or castes in the world hereafter.
Mooji
A man confessed to having ‘bad thoughts’. Mooji said these thoughts weren’t ‘bad’, they were just too strongly identified with his ‘I’ identity. ‘If you could see this “I” as a virtual identity, you would find peace,‘ he said. ‘ “I-me” is a costume we wear while we sleep in the world, believed in, it becomes the pyjamas of the being.
St. Theophan the Recluse
“The enemy does not have power over the soul; he can only frighten it with illusory terrors. Do not give in.”
Tertön Nyima Drakpa Tsal
Amidst the various apparitional displays of the mind, there is no way to point out, “This is the mind.” Thus, that very freedom from the root of the cycle of existence and of liberation is to be known as the Dharmakaya.
Eckhart Tolle
To know yourself as the Being underneath the thinker, the stillness underneath the mental noise, the love and joy underneath the pain, is freedom, salvation, enlightenment.
