Sunday


“God does not forbid you from doing good and being just to those who have neither fought you over your faith nor evicted you from your homes...” (Quran 60:8)


“If you want to get rid of something, you must first allow it to flourish.”
~ Lao- Tzu

 “The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.”
-- Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Riches are not from abundance but from a contented mind.”

~ Hadith

“Let us be grateful to the people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.”
Marcel Proust


"Discipline divorced from wisdom is not true discipline, but merely the meaningless following of custom, which is only a disguise for stupidity.”
~ Rabindranath Tagore



“When light had spoken through his mouth, as well as his voice which have birth to live, he gave them thought and understanding and mercy and salvation and the powerful spirit from the infiniteness and the sweetness of the Father.”
~ The Gospel of Truth 1,3

“Abandon the search for God and the creation and other similar matters. Look for Him by taking yourself as the starting point. Learn who it is within you who makes everything his own and says, ‘My God, my mind, my thought, my soul, my body.’ Learn the source of sorrow, joy, love, hate… If you carefully investigate these matters you will find God in your self.”
~ Monoimos
