“True Yogis, from their seat of equipoise, ser all this World as an equal manifestation of God's creative energy—men, women, children, turnips, bedrugs, coral: it's all God in disguise. But the Yogis believe that a human life is a very special opportunity, because only in a human form and only with a human mind can God-realization ever occur.

“Lament is not anti-hope. It's not even a stepping stone to hope. Lament itself is a form of hope. It's an innate awareness that what is should not be. As if something is written on our hearts that tells us exactly what we are meant for, and whenever confronted with something contrary to this, we experience a crumbling. And in the rubble we say "God, you promised.”

“Through them we attempt to understand the line between sanity and insanity - and come to realize that it does not exist. The most fragile, vulnerable people can still offer strength and wisdom. Those hardened by cruel circumstances can show real kindness and compassion towards those who treat them. And those of us who outwardly appear untroubled can mask an inner life of turmoil.”
