Developing Divine Qualities

“By pondering upon the good, the beautiful, and the true, we transmute our lower instincts into higher divine qualities. The attractive power of God’s instinctual nature, with its capacity to synthesize, to attract and to blend, cooperates with the unrealized potencies of man’s own nature, and makes his eventual at-one-ment with God, in life and purpose, an inevitable, irresistible occurrence.”

–Alice A. Bailey (English Writer, Spiritual Teacher and Founder of the Arcane School, 1880-1949)

“Esoteric Psychology: A Treatise on the 7 Rays (A treatise on the seven rays) Book 2” (Alice A. Bailey)   

Reflecting Magic and Beauty

“The appearance of things change according to the emotions, and thus we see magic and beauty in them, while the magic and beauty are really in ourselves.”           

–Kahlil Gibran (Lebanese Poet and Philosopher, 1883-1931)   

The Fruits of Enlightenment

“Enlightenment – the awakening of insight that happens in yourself and is independent of others – makes it possible to create an everlasting world of beauty and harmony, the home of nirvana.”  

–Yrjö Kallinen (Finnish Educator, Politician and Pacifist 1886-1976)   

Symmetry

“The geometry of the archetypes and the Universal Mind are evident in the principles of symmetry which pervade nature and art. Symmetry shows us a glimpse of the ideal beauty which is reflected in nature, infusing it with order. Symmetry is universal; it can be found everywhere as the broad principle of balance and harmony.”          

–Shirley J. Nicholson (American Teacher, Theosophist, Author, Former Chief Editor of Quest Books and Resident Head of the Krotona Community)   

“Ancient Wisdom – Modern Insight (Quest Books)” (Shirley J. Nicholson)
