“Meditation is the progressive quieting of our mind, until we reach the source of thought, which in wisdom traditions are the realm of our soul and spirit. In this domain of awareness there is infinite creativity, synchronicity, the power of intention, and freedom from limitations.” MindSoulSpiritCreativityMeditationAwarenessSourceTraditionInfiniteIntentionLimitationRealmsProgressiveDomainSynchronicityPower Of Intention Author:Deepak Chopra

“As for "toothy kindness" - I think all traditions are full of this sort of tough kindness. If someone is on a wrong or dull path, and someone else startles them into awareness of that, then that's a blessing. And the method by which the startle is obtained might be anger, or satire, or an intentionally applied indifference. But that is, of course, a fine line.” IfsThinkingMightCoursesLinesKindnessPathAwarenessFineBlessingToughTraditionMethodIndifferenceDullSatireFine Lines Author:George Saunders
“In the West nowadays, it's very common to talk about the Judeo- Christian tradition. It's a common term. The term is relatively modern but the reality is an old one. One could with equal justification talk about a Judeo-Islamic tradition or a Christian-Islamic tradition. These three religions are interlinked in many signification ways, which marks them off from the rest of the world. And I think there is a growing awareness of this among Christians and among Jews, and even to some extent to some Muslims. That's happening for obvious reasons.” ThinkingWorldReasonRealityChristianTermCommonModernAwarenessEqualTraditionJewObviousJustification Author:Bernard Lewis
“Every individual is at once the beneficiary and the victim of the linguistic tradition into which he has been born - the beneficiary inasmuch as language gives access to the accumulated records of other people's experience, the victim in so far as it confirms him in the belief that reduced awareness is the only awareness and as it bedevils his sense of reality, so that he is all too apt to take his concepts for data, his words for actual things.” PeopleGivingHas BeensRealityIndividualBeliefLanguageBornRecordsAwarenessHumilityCommunicationConceptsTraditionExperienceVictimAccessDataBeneficiariesDoors Of Perception Author:Aldous Huxley
