Quote by Donna Goddard

“We must remember the true essence of life—indestructible, immaterial, completely safe, and utterly untouchable. We are spiritual, not physical, beings. That does not change with birth or death. It remains constant. Our true essence is intangible, bodiless, and ethereal.”

“From the reed flute streams a melody.... cut from the agony of deeps.... for carved are the holes... and thus emerges the flute from a reed........ as the ache that enters your deeps... turns your heart to the sweetest flute... and you become a vessel for a music that fills this earth... every longing is played by the reed flute into the breeze.... as agony cut you in pieces.. .there flew your achiest of aches.... but now the reed flute has you smiling playing the sweetest melody on your lips.... for they come not through the flute... but from your soul. of the deeps... as in agony you turn to the note of ecstasy .... for though your heart is torn asunder... yet altered are they in the reed notes.... as the flute lets the notes play with the winds....”

“Nu vedeți sufletul? Într-o zi o să-l vedeți. Nici ochii mei nu vad totdeauna sufletul. Este acea lumina nemuritoare care apare în forma de aura pe capetele sfinților in biserici. Asta li se vede sfinților in picturile murale bisericești: sufletul. Am auzit ca unii considera sufletul un fel de fórmula chimica. Probabil ca are si el o formula chimica. Dar taina ei n-o știe nimeni. Se pare ca si Dumnezeu a uitat-o.  Si de aia, noi oamenii, in ciuda tuturor greșelilor noastre,  supraviețuim. Insa noi nu suntem, sufletește, numai niste formule chimice”

“Families are a struggling ground for life and evolution. Decisions are made from the platform of what seems most important to any given individual at that time. We are born where we are meant to be and walk towards what we are meant to grow into. We have an instinctive tendency to move in the direction of our destiny, whether it is like that of the people around us or not. We will be relentlessly drawn to it because nothing else will satisfy. Every time we do something to fulfil our destiny, we will feel alive, engaged, and at peace. This is how we find our place in the world. We are no one else but ourselves, and that is all we need to be happy. We need to be our honest self, but our best honest self, our true self, the self our soul recognises even without a name or a family identity.”

“…you must be always as a drop of dew hidden in the heart of this beautiful Lily of the valley ... One must be so little to draw near to Jesus, and few are the souls that aspire to be little and unknown. ... Our Beloved needs neither our brilliant deeds nor our beautiful thoughts. ... The Lily of the valley asks but a single dewdrop, which for one night shall rest in its cup, hidden from all human eyes.”

“And Our Lord took me by the hand, and led me through an underground passage where it is neither hot nor cold, where the sun shines not, and where neither wind nor rain can enter—a place where I see nothing but a half-veiled light, the light that gleams from the downcast Eyes of the Face of Jesus. My Spouse speaks not a word, and I say nothing save that I love Him more than myself; and in the depths of my heart I know this is true, for I am more His than mine. I cannot see that we are advancing toward our journey's goal since we travel by a subterranean way; and yet, without knowing how, it seems to me that we are nearing the summit of the Mountain.”
