"History has shown us time and time again that you don't have to know someone to love them with all your heart."
~ Shannon L. Alder


"Nature does not deceive or conceal, but reveals."
~ Carl Jung


The words of some men are thrown forcibly against you and adhere like burrs. -Henry David Thoreau, naturalist and author (1817-1862)


“There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening, that is 
translated through you into action, and because there is only one of
you in all time, this expression is unique. And, if you block it, it 
will never exist through any other medium and will be lost.”
~ Martha Graham


“You need to leave your room. Remain sitting at your table and 
listen. You need not even listen, simply wait. You need not even 
wait,just learn to become quiet, and still, and solitary. 
The world will freely offer itself to you to be unmasked. It has no
choice; it will roll in ecstasy at your feet.”
~ Franz Kafka


Step out of the circle of time and into the circle of love.
-Rumi


Realization is simply to give birth to something within oneself.
- Anonymous


It is difficult to find happiness in oneself but it is impossible to find it anywhere else.
- Schopenhauer


Metaphysician: A man who goes into a dark cellar at midnight without a light looking for a black cat that is not there.
- Bowen of Colwood


We have not come here to take prisoners but to surrender ever more deeply to freedom and joy.
- Hafiz


Know that what appears to be Love for an ‘other’ is really Love of Self because ‘other’ doesn’t exist. So this innermost Love can be given to no ‘other’. Love of friends is for the sake of Self, not for body to body. True love has no Lover or Beloved because all Love is Love of Self.
- Sri Poonja
