"What is a course of history or philosophy, or poetry, no matter how well selected, or the best society, or the most admirable routine of life, compared with the discipline of looking always at what is to be seen? Will you be a reader, a student merely or a seer? Read your fate, see what is before you, and walk on into futurity."
- Henry David Thoreau

"If you look at zero you see nothing; but look through it and you will see the world."
- Robert Kaplan

"By orienting in the present, as presence, we expand and feel our undeniable interrelations with all of life. When we are present to every situation as a divinely calibrated opportunity for “personal” clarity and growth, we transform our suffering or striving into the beauty of human evolution, honoring life as an eternal journey of Being!"
- SkyTime

"Center the mind in stillness; center the heart in love; center the body in breath; and you will find yourself centered in the cosmos!"

"Acknowledge the abundance in our life; it creates waves of grace on which to move in the world. Generosity means giving, and it begins in the heart by affirming confidence in the abundance of the universe. Abundance flows in a circle, so when you fear and think scarcity thoughts, then the flow of abundance in our lives becomes constricted. Generous actions from a generous heart bring peace and abundance for you and all in the circle. Recognize that you always have something to give, and then share it with others."
- Venerable Dhyani Ywahoo

"What is the best way to take in every day life to lead one to life's ideal? The best way is to consider harmony as the first principle to be observed; that in all circumstances and situations and conditions one should try to harmonize with one's fellow creatures... Harmony is the most essential thing in life... In plain words, inharmony attracts inharmony, whereas harmony attracts harmony."
- Hazrat Inayat Khan

"Nobody's life is a straight line that makes perfect sense. Everybody has twists and turns, and everyone has to turn around every now and then. So when you find yourself wishing and hoping things out of your control would change, summon all of your strength to let go and start heading in a new direction because it'll lead you closer to your true path."
- Nikki Banas

"Let go; let your self be absorbed by life itself. Be flexible in yielding to the formless flow. Allow your focus to cover a vast range. Dissolve feelings of constrictions. Welcome spontaneity, seeming disruptions, and unexpected detours. Release allegiance to limitations, reliance upon format, or fixation upon control. Un-do, break-down, mix it up! Allow energy to travel as it needs. Disperse into formless existence."
- SkyTime

"Salvation does not come from refusing to take part or from running away. Nor does it come from just drifting. Salvation comes from complete surrender, with one's eyes always turned to the center."
- Carl Jung

"Decay is the beginning of all birth ... midwife of great things ... the deepest mystery and miracle that He/God has revealed to man."
- Paracelsus

"The wound is the place where the light enters you."
- Rumi

"In a transcendental sense the pain is not 'who we are,' it is just showing blockages or imbalances. It is merely passing through us, seeking a heart to meet and acknowledge it. If we give all the pain over to our heart-center and surround it with a vigilant, patient, compassionate embrace, the fire of our self-loving acceptance burns away its veils, diminishing its intensity, and if needed, liberates us into the lessons underlying the pain."
- SkyTime

"Pain serves a purpose. Without it you are in danger. What you cannot feel you cannot take care of."
- Rebecca Solnit

Give flight to your sacred Vision!"

"The eye through which I see God is the same eye through which God sees me."

- Pythagoras

"The soul would have no rainbow if the eye had no tears."
- Minquass tribe proverb

"Sometimes the darkest challenges, the most difficult lessons, hold the greatest gems of light."
- Barbara Marciniak

"If we overlook the inherent unity that opposing forces are born of, polarity is experienced as duality. Duality, the destructive illusion of separation, denies that counter-balances exist to serve each other. Challenges that appear as hardship or struggle, when seen from another perspective, can bear the blessings of opportunity."
- SkyTime

"'Fearless' is not a reduction of fears, but rather the capacity to go beyond fear. Going beyond fear begins when we examine our fear... In the Shambala tradition, discovering fearlessness comes from working with the softness of the human heart."

"If you could get rid of yourself just once, The secret of secrets would open to you. The face of the unknown, Hidden beyond the universe Would appear on the Mirror of your Perception."

"Teach me the ways to dissolve my smallness, and receive the divine vastness, as it beckons me to unfurl my joy."
- Aryze

"A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty."
- Albert Einstein

"How do we know that to clean to life is not an error? Perhaps our fear of its end approaching is like forgetting our way and not knowing how to return home."
- Chuang-tse

"Death is the moment of form dissolving. When that dissolving is not resisted, an opening appears into the dimension of the sacred, into the One formless, unmanifested Life. This is why death is such an incredible opportunity. There is no transformation of human consciousness without the dissolving that death brings."
- Eckhart Tolle

"I invite break-through; I dissolve identity; I un-solidify; I release old models for new models; I wield dissonance as a force of liberation; I redeem chaos as untamed order; I shed; I free limiting beliefs and constructs - no box, no separation, no boundaries; uncontained; free-form; receptive to the prismatic range of possibility."
- SkyTime

"Full circle, from the tomb of the womb to the womb of the tomb, we come: an ambiguous, enigmatical incursion into a world of solid matter that is soon to melt from us, like the substance of a dream."
- Joseph Campbell

"As we begin to remember our origins, we re-member our lives as they could be. And as consciousness ascends, we will be remembering much more. Only then will we bring ourselves back to the Garden - eventually."

- Gary Zukav

"We are slowed-down sound and light waves, a walking bundle of frequencies tuned into the cosmos. We are souls dressed up in sacred biochemical garments and our bodies are the instruments through which our souls play their music."
- Albert Einstein

"Birth and death are doors through which you pass from one dream to another. All you are doing is going back and forth between this gross dream world and the finer astral dream world; between these two chambers of dream nightmares and dream pleasures."
- Paramhansa Yogananda

"Looking inward is a straight line to the one, looking outward are multiple branches into the many. Yet, lest we forget, this whole tree is itself identical to the mysterious ineffable One transcending both one and many."
- Thomas J. McFarlane

"The meaning of life is not to be discovered only after death in some hidden, mysterious realm; On the contrary, it can be found by eating the succulent fruit of the Tree of Life and by living in the here and now as fully and creatively as we can."
- Paul Kurtz

"To be fully human means to know myself first as an essence of divinity, and then as a player in this huge dream called life."

"We move in circles, balanced all the while on a gleaming razor's edge. A perfect sphere colliding with our fate. This story ends where it began."
