Famous Donna Goddard Quotes

“The path is paved with consistent, conscious mental and spiritual alertness and the gradual growth of goodness in our heart and clarity in our mind. We are awake. If we keep trying to understand, we will understand. If we keep telling ourselves that we are loved by Life and if we keep looking for evidence of that love, we will find it.”

“Relationships are used by the darkness to keep people revolving around the ego’s demands. For a moment, people see the light of the divine in each other. They run to it and then quickly forget the light they once saw as their fears reclaim their consciousness. Thus begins the ongoing battle to protect one’s own ‘rights’, in case they be forgotten or betrayed. The tally of what is owed is counted, the guilt of perceived wrong doings is cast upon the other, one’s freedom must be paid as the price for ‘love’, and it is only in short periods of peace when all of this is forgotten. Those moments are the precious windows of the Soul.”

“You can turn every ugly and damaging drama into a genuine blessing by seeing it differently. No one is suffering on purpose. We learn to give up the pleasure we feel in self-righteously blaming others. Healing happens when we see things differently. The question is: do you want suffering or peace? It's that simple.”

“We draw into our life those who will help us to grow. Naturally, we tend to have mixed feelings about those very people but they are marked for us. We have forgotten that we wrote them an invitation some time ago. We look at them as if they are intruders when all along they are our guests.”

“Life is not a competition. No one has to lose for someone else to win. A true blessing blesses everyone. A fragmented love which makes others lose will eventually turn upon itself and destroy the very thing which was being so carefully guarded. An open-hearted love will follow a course which can only lead somewhere good.”

“It is warmer here. Can you see the light? Trust it. It is safe. It has lived a long time. It has seen much more than you. You fight a demon that you once knew but the demon is already slain. And from the corner of your eye you will see the scattered, sacred fire reform again. Settle, settle. Peace, peace”

“Whatever people are doing, they are doing for a reason. It is the natural outcome of their present level of consciousness. We can educate, inspire, and encourage, but we can only meet them halfway. The rest must come from the other person through deliberate, conscious choice. As they evolve, their choices will evolve too.”

“Even though our most prized personal bondings are, generally, selfish and egotistical, they are also our saviour. Through them, we learn to see the essence of ourselves, each other, and life. Our relationships are transformed and so are we. Offer your relationships to God and you will not be disappointed with what is made of them.”

“Material possessions radiate a certain type of energy. They are not neutral. The more material possessions you have around you, the more distracting and draining those objects can become. If the outside world dominates your thoughts with responsibilities, worries, and conflicting energies of all sorts, then your mind and spirit will not have the space to allow the creative force to flow and flower.”

“There is a guiding principle in life that tells us to follow our loves. What are our loves? Anything that creates a passion, a fire, an instinctive interest in us. Follow it. When you have choices before you, follow the one that creates the most amount of enthusiasm in you. If it is a tiny fire, still follow it. Passion is your creator’s way of letting you know which way to go. It is foolproof. Follow it wholeheartedly and use everything you have to make it work.”

“If you reach a brick wall, don’t bang your head on it. You will only hurt yourself. The longer you keep banging, the more blood there will be. It is there for a reason. The road ahead wasn’t going to work. Wipe the blood away, dust yourself down, dry your tears, and take a moment to assimilate your loss. Then, turn in a different direction and keep moving. Up ahead, unbeknown to you, is a clear road waiting for your footsteps.”

“There is nothing intrinsically wrong with seeking a couple relationship. It fulfils many needs, but the concept of a romantic relationship as the highest pinnacle of life, worthy of all the hype, is faulty. And once in it, most people become so focused on its maintenance that it monopolises their attention for the rest of their life.”

“If you do not like your reality, you can shift to one where things work differently. Firstly, the improved version of reality must be pictured very clearly in your mind. What cannot be conceived cannot be born. Secondly, it must be frequently visited until it no longer seems improbable. It must become familiar and a definite possibility. Gradually, it will move from improbable to possible to likely to inevitable.”

“When you are closest to making a breakthrough in your personal growth, your fear throws up the greatest intensity. It will do whatever it can to deter you from moving ahead. If you succumb to its frightening and treacherous threats, pick yourself up and try again. If you forget what you are trying to do, try again. If you change your mind and head the other way, try again. With perseverance, your fear will exit the scene, and you will be standing in a new world.”

“Many of the most magnificent things in our world happen gently, graciously, and with no fanfare—the movement of the sun, the stars, the moon, the ocean, and the constant miracles of creation in the natural world. You, too, can become a force of nature. Don’t be afraid that your growth has to be painful and dramatic, involving lots of outward change. More often than not, it is a gentle unfolding of what is beautiful, true, purposeful and serene.”
