Awakening Quotes

“Valley to Cross The valley I must cross under the bridges that were burned troubled water beats against my heart while I’m trying to be heard. The sky turns dark on a full moon night It’s God that lights my way my legs are weak, but my heart strong I’ll walk to meet the day. There’s a mountain in the distance my legs tremble with each step how can I get to you Dear God? exhausted there I slept. Awaken on the mountain top through tears, a view to behold keeping our faith, not easy God’s story had been told.”

“Desai talked that morning about the preciousness of a human life. “In the world of yoga,” he said, “you must remember there are hell realms and heavenly realms and animal realms and other realms where souls abide.” But the human realms, he said, are most precious. Here in the human realms we suffer, but we also have the tools to wake up. And unlike the heavenly realm of the devas and brahmas, celestial beings, we have the desire to wake up. The human realms have just the right mixture of pleasure and pain to prod us toward the path of liberation.”

“Feeling bad is not the problem. The problem is that we feel bad about feeling bad. Once you begin to let go of feeling bad about feeling bad, and start feeling better about feeling bad, then pretty soon you'll just feel better. And then you'll feel awesome.”

“I was transformed the day My ego shattered, And all the superficial, material Things that mattered To me before, Suddenly ceased To matter.”

“Truth is not fully explosive, but purely electric. You don't blow the world up with the truth; you shock it into motion.”

“Not long ago, I learned that if I let other people tell me how God was supposed to work in my life I would be dead. If I would have given into someone else’s version of God then I would have done nothing to improve my situation. The notion that “if it was meant to be, it will be”, is a pacifying, yet harmful quote, that many spiritualists use to soften the blow of anger. God is not passive. He is relentless, and he will build you through fire. He will put in your heart a need for answers. The intensity of what bothers your soul is often his voice trying to take you from the limited vision of mankind to the full view of the best life he would like to offer you. He is above any pastor, any bishop, any prophet, any church, any cleverly crafted sermon or multi-meaning verse. He is the master of his craft and the author of your forever. Inner peace is only found through action. Fear may darken the trail, but the light of peace stands at the end of such a journey ----waiting with truth.”

“A critical piece of holistic self-becoming involves the deeply felt realization that our thoughts, beliefs and intentions aren’t merely mental or ‘just imaginary’ events. On the contrary, they’re potent forces interacting synergistically with the quantum field, the biofield of the Universal Mind, if you will. In a culture crafted by eager yes-men and -women to an overbearing materialism, this may be a hard pill to swallow. But that doesn’t change this clear (to many anyway) dynamic: the simply powerful act of observation influences the universe at its most basic level.”

“We awaken by asking the right questions. We awaken when we see knowledge being spread that goes against our own personal experiences. We awaken when we see popular opinion being wrong but accepted as being right, and what is right being pushed as being wrong. We awaken by seeking answers in corners that are not popular. And we awaken by turning on the light inside when everything outside feels dark.”

“UNDIVIDED I am for One world undivided. One world without fear and corruption. One world ruled by Truth and Justice. I am for One peaceful world for all, Where hate has been overcome by love, And everyone is guided only By their conscience.”

“Life is the fundamental essence of all reality. It doesn’t emerge, and it never dies. Life simply is. It’s the inherent quality of everything that is or is not. Under certain conditions, life awakens, and we call it living. But eventually all living forms decay and through so-called death, life transforms back into its elementary stage; the infinite potential for expression. We comprehend such transition as dying, but death is just a term we invented to mark the end of living. Everything that is born and dies is an expression of so-called absolute Life, which exists as a continuum in everything, everywhere, always, and on all levels, forever seeking new ways of becoming alive. We should, therefore, replace the popular saying “it’s all about life and death” with “it’s all about birth and death, while life is eternal.”

“Perspective is as simple as answering this question: If I had 5 months to live would I experience this problem differently?”

“Though we may choose to view them symbolically, dreams are actually no more or less symbolic than everyday waking reality. When the images and events don't conform to our view of reality, we call them symbols. When they do, we call them facts.”
