“Spirituality is about being ready. All the spiritual disciplines of your life - prayer, study, meditation or ritual, religious vows - are there so you can break through to the eternal. Spirituality is about awakening the eyes, the ears, the heart so you can see what's always happening right in front of you.” HeartEyeSpiritualSpiritualityReligiousPrayerBreakStudyMeditationFrontsReadyDisciplineEternalHappeningsEarsAwakeningRitualRealismVowBreak ThroughSpiritual Disciplines Author:Richard Rohr
“Voices of the glorified urge us onward. They who have passed from the semblances of time to the realities of eternity call upon us to advance. The rest that awaits us invites us forward. We do not pine for our rest before God wills it. We long for no inglorious rest. We are thankful rather for the invaluable training of difficulty, the loving discipline of danger and strife. Yet in the midst of it all the prospect of rest invites us heavenward. Through all, and above all, God cries, "Go forward!" "Come up higher!” LongRealitySpiritualityVoiceCryDangerHigherDisciplineTrainingEternityDifficultyCome UpGods WillUrgesMidstInvitesStrifeInvaluableSemblance Author:William James
“Religion is organized, and spirituality is what the individual feels in his relationship with truth and with God. And although spirituality may be expressed in a religion, many people are spiritual and never go to church. They aren't religious in the sense that they practice a certain type of discipline.” PeopleFeelsMaySpiritualCertainSpiritualityIndividualChurchReligiousPracticeTypeDisciplineOrganized Author:Goswami Kriyananda

“We all have our issues, no one gets away from facing their own issues, so that we can advance. Nothing is given lightly, and everything has a repercussion, as you're evolving. And, if anything, the sport itself is a great training, not only physically, but the mental discipline that it requires. The gym can serve as an excellent place where kids, and young men and women can really empty their issues right on the floor. It's amazing the spirituality that you get as a result of practicing and enjoying the sport. That's another plus.” MenKidsSpiritualitySportsEnjoyHe ManDisciplineTrainingMen And WomenEmptyEvolveExcellentGet AwayGym Author:Djimon Hounsou

“There's no way to put a limit on what one may accomplish individually if the intent is an impeccable intent. Don Juan's teachings are not spiritual. I repeat this because the question has come to the surface over and over. The idea of spirituality doesn't fit with the iron discipline of a warrior. The most important thing for a shaman like don Juan is the idea of pragmatism.” IfsWayMayImportantIdeasSpiritualSpiritualityTeachingDisciplineFitLimitsImportant ThingsAccomplishSurfaceWarriorAccomplishmentRepeatsIronPragmatismDon JuanImpeccableJuan Author:Carlos Castaneda
