Quotes from the Masters and Teachers

[Miss Hepburn]

Emmet Fox:

Stop thinking about the problem and think only of God's perfect world.

[jimrich]

All experience happens in our Self, pure Consciousness, and all there is in our Self, out of which experience can be made, is our Self. Therefore, just as there is nothing present in a movie other than the screen, so there is nothing present in experience, other than our Self. Pure Consciousness is all experience, and all experience is pure Consciousness. ~ Rupert Spira

Every time we find ourselves reacting to anyone or anything, ask on whose behalf we are reacting. We will nearly always find that it is on behalf of a non-existent self. ~ Rupert Spira

Experience is not experienced by something outside of, separate from or other than itself. Nor does experience ever come in contact with anything other than itself, such as a separate, independently existing object, self or world. Experience just experiences itself – one unnameable, indivisible whole, simultaneously knowing and being itself alone. ~ Rupert Spira

'Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned' - Buddha

[Joyce]

Don't know if this has appeared before, yet either way it's worth seeing again or for the first time.

Rumi: "WHAT WAS SAID TO THE ROSE TO MAKE IT OPEN WAS SAID HERE IN MY CHEST."

'If you stay connected at the heart, it is very difficult to lie or to tell a half-truth. If you refuse to disconnect from love, then every relationship you have will be totally transformed; even the relationship with yourself' - Adyashanti

'True love has nothing to do with liking someone, agreeing with him or her, or being compatible. It is a love of unity, a love of seeing God wearing all the masks and recognising itself in them all. Without it, Truth becomes an abstraction that is sort of cool and analytical, and that is not the real Truth' - Adyashanti

This woman right here, I choose with my perception to see her as god; This is an ancient African technique, God was never outside of your perception-- god was never outside of what you thought, that's why western man came and said there is no god they are just making it up! RIGHT! But god is the greatest human invention in human history-- And the reasons being, the reason Africans created god, was so that humanity in its infinity, would never run out of something to rise to-- This is why god exists, if you don't have god you don't rise; there is nothing human about technology, sorry! there is nothing human about it; and this what I want to say in terms of your spirit, what can you see? this is god to me, and I respect her and treat her just like that-- Thats my perception of her, now she can do something to break that perception, she can do something to enhance it, mmh-- What if she knew that I thought she was god? then there is something in her that will try to live up to the image I see of her, there will be something in her that she will at least either have to deny god, or become--

This is how we as a community treated each other, if there is no god; then we are not family-- The only way we can be brothers or sisters is if we have the same parent-- Think.. We cannot call ourselves brothers or sisters, if we do not have the same mother or father-- When we god is the eternal mother, we all become brothers and sisters, when we all say yes; I am part of this IDEA called god; not this separate man in the sky, not even a separate spirit-- Let's just make this idea up right now, ain't nobody tell our ancestors what god was--

God is nowhere else. God is now and here. If you could squeeze all the religions of the world into one drop of wisdom, it would be: God is now and here…nowhere else. -Shuddhaanandaa Brahmachari


Whatever may be the external situation that you are facing this moment, you are greater than that, rise, accept and move on. -Shuddhaanandaa Brahmachari

We uplift ourselves with the eyes of awareness, with the eyes of non-judgmental compassion and equanimity.

We can only ignite the Light in our inner being. The light is our conscious awareness of the being I AM. To withdraw into I AM consciousness is to light the lamp where there was darkness. - Shuddhaanandaa Brahmachari

[Miss Hepburn]

And the world cannot be discovered by a journey of miles,
no matter how long, but only by a spiritual journey,
a journey of one inch...

-Wendall Berry

[A human Being]

'The deeper we see into the reality of things, the more our heart opens to include everything, because if we're really feeling into our deepest reality and truth, the heart isn't something that would want to escape from what is here and now; rather, our hearts are already embracing everything. We can allow our hearts to be big enough to be broken.' - Adyashanti

'Enlightenment is nothing more than the complete absence of resistance to what is. End of story.' - Adyashanti
