The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation and go to the grave with the song still in them.
Thoreau
Split wood, I am there. Lift up the stone, and you will find me there.
Jesus, Gospel of St. Thomas
The Kingdom of the father will not come by expectation. The kingdom of the Father is spread upon the earth and men do not see it.
Jesus, Gospel of St. Thomas
In seeking the actual experience of this Mystery, your image of God becomes the final obstruction. God is the ultimate barrier.
Joseph Campbell
The moment you desire God, you have made God into a commodity. Then you will be exploited by the priests because they sell that commodity. Then you will be exploited by temples and churches and mosques – because those are the shops where that commodity is sold….
When you are desireless, the divine happens to you.
Bhabwan Shree Rajneesh
When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; But when I became a man, I put away childish things. For now we see in a mirror darkly.
St. Paul
Good friends, how then are meditation and wisdom alike? They are like the lamp and the light it gives forth. If there is a lamp there is light, if there is no lamp there is no light. The lamp is the substance of light; light is the function of the lamp. Thus although they have two names, in substance they are not two. Meditation and wisdom are also like this.
Hui-neng
All that is is the result of what we have thought. We are mind spun.
The Buddha
To choose is unconsciously a wish to perpetuate oneself. Shunryu Suzuki
When you sit you sit for all beings in the world.
You sit as one already enlightened.
You sit to express your true nature.
You sit for the sitting itself.
Shunryu Suzuki
Where is the wisdom we’ve lost in knowledge, where the knowledge we’ve lost in information?
T. S. Elliot
Eternal reoccurrence is the universal law: nothing happens for the first time.

The only thing you can ever offer another human being, is the present state of your own consciousness.
Ram Dass
You are a statement of everything you have evolved to at this moment, and you, as that statement, are what is creating the universe in which you find yourself.
