Quote by Kathleen Maher

“(Via Malcolm)"...For the moment, I have this incredible gift...It just happened. I bend, whisper, sing, shout—and a radiant light surrounds and then emanates from people.”

“Mi sembrava - e ad essere onesto, signore, mi sembra ancora - che gli Stati Uniti non facessero altro che affettare una posa. In quanto società, non eravate affatto disposti a riflettere sul dolore condiviso che vi univa a coloro che vi avevano attaccato. Vi trinceravate nel mito della vostra differenza, nella presunzione della vostra superiorità. E ostentavate tali convinzioni sul palcoscenico del mondo, così che l'intero pianeta fosse scosso dalle ripercussioni della vostra collera, non ultima la mia famiglia, sull'orlo di una guerra a migliaia di chilometri di distanza. Un'America come quella andava fermata, non solo nell'interesse dell'umanità ma anche nel vostro stesso interesse.”

“As I turned my head and looked out the window, I saw that everything around me was glowing from within. The sunlight on the trees, the swaying of the leaves in the wind, the slight rattle of the panes of glass in the old window frame, were too beautiful for words. I was enthralled at how miraculous everything was. Absolutely everything was beautiful. . . . I saw clearly that everyone is made of light—that we are like forms of light—but that a crust has formed over it. The crust is black and rubbery like tar and has obscured the inner light that is everyone’s real, inner self. Some blotches of tar are very thick; other areas are thinner and more transparent. Those who have worked on themselves for longer have less tar and they radiate more of their inner light. Because of their personal history, others are covered with more tar and need a great deal of work to get free of it. . . If we observe ourselves truthfully and non-judgmentally, seeing the mechanisms of our personality in action, we can wake up, and our lives can be a miraculous unfolding of beauty and joy.”
