Continual Becoming
“You do not stand in the world as a finished, self contained spatial being, but you stand within continual happening, continual becoming, within processes continually going on and continually proceeding.”
–Rudolf Steiner (Croatian-born Austrian Mystic, Occultist, Social Philosopher, Architect and Founder of Anthroposophy, 1861-1925)
Scratch Where It Itches!
How many of us can ever uncover enough of our innate freedom to think and act this way?
“I have a simple philosophy. Fill what’s empty, empty what’s full, and scratch where it itches.”
–Alice Roosevelt Longworth (American Socialite and Daughter of Theodore Roosevelt, the 26th US President, 1884-1980)
Your Invisible Source
“Having access to that formless realm is truly liberating. It frees you from bondage to form and identification with form. It is life in its undifferentiated state prior to its fragmentation into multiplicity. We may call it the Unmanifested, the invisible Source of all things, the Being within all beings. It is a realm of deep stillness and peace, but also of joy and intense aliveness. Whenever you are present, you become ‘transparent’ to some extent to the light, the pure consciousness that emanates from this Source. You also realize that the light is not separate from who you are but constitutes your very essence.”
–Eckhart Tolle (German-born Author and Spiritual Teacher, 1948-)
Manifest Your Innate Enlightenment
“Everyone has a spirit that can be refined, a body that can be trained in some manner, a suitable path to follow. You are here to realize your inner divinity and manifest your innate enlightenment.”
–Morihei Ueshiba (Japanese Martial Artist and Founder of Aikido, 1883-1969)
Discovering Your True Freedom
“No one who has lived even for a fleeting moment for something other than life in its conventional sense and has experienced the exaltation that this feeling produces can then renounce his new freedom so easily.”
–André Breton (French Surrealist, 1889-1966)
Training In The Art of Peace
“Daily training in the Art of Peace allows you inner divinity to shine brighter and brighter. Do not concern yourself with the right and wrong of others. Do not be calculating or act unnaturally. Keep your mind, set on the Art of Peace, and do not criticize other teachers or traditions. The Art of Peace never restrains, restricts, or shackles anything. It embraces all and purifies everything.”
–Morihei Ueshiba (Japanese Martial Artist and Founder of Aikido, 1883-1969)
The Joy Inside
“…keep knocking, and the Joy inside will eventually open a window and look out to see who’s there.”
–Rumi (a.k.a. Jalal al-Din Rumi. a.k.a. Mevlana Jelaluddin Rúmí, Afghan Sufi Poet, 1207-1273)
Harmony With the Universe
“Nothing else is demanded of you but to be in harmony with the entire Universe.”
–Peter Konstantinov Deunov (a.k.a. Master Beinsa Douno, Bulgarian Spiritual Master and Founder of a School of Esoteric Christianity, 1864-1944)
