“One should feel that one's friends, the people who meditate around you, who seek, are likewise pligrims on a journey. They're traveling to eternity also. You should love them.

“I began to research the concept of dimensionality from the point of view of quality, and not just quantity, as a mathematician might do. Taking my clues from the theosophical use made of the Vedantic levels of reality, I identified the western notion of Energy (as someting which is effecatious by means of motion), with the idea of Time. The more comprehensive dimension 'eternity' I defined as a form of energy which is efficacious without motion. In this manner I began to establish the qualities of dimensions and open out the seemingly monolithic concept of energy.” MeanMadeIdeasUseRealityMightFormEnergyLevelsViewsQualityResearchConceptsEternityWesternNotionPoint Of ViewDefinedDimensionsQuantityMathematicianClueComprehensive Author:Paul Laffoley
“If I were going to construct a God I would furnish him with some ways and qualities and characteristics which the Present One lacks...

“[Jesus] matters because of what he brought and what he still brings to ordinary human beings, living their ordinary lives and coping daily with their surroundings.

“But I have had enough melodrama in this life, and would willingly give my five senses if they could ensure us our present peace and security. Happiness is not a possession to be prized, it is a quality of thought, a state of mind. Of course we have our moments of depression; but there are other moments too, when time, unmeasured by the clock, runs on into eternity and, catching his smile, I know we are together, we march in unison, no flash of thought or opinion makes a barrier between us.” IfsKnowsGivingMindStatesEnoughMomentsRunningTogetherCoursesQualityOpinionFiveSecurityEternityPossessionSensesThis LifeClockBarriersMarchState Of MindFlashCatchingHad EnoughMelodramaFive SensesHis SmileUnisonPeace And Security Author:Daphne du Maurier
“Meditation speaks. It speaks in silence. It reveals. It reveals to the aspirant that matter and spirit are one, quantity and quality are one, the immanent and the transcendent are one. It reveals that life can never be the mere existence of seventy or eighty years between birth and death, but is, rather, Eternity itself.” YearsMatterSpiritSpeakExistenceSilenceQualityMeditationBirthEternityMereQuantitySeventiesEightyTranscendentBirth And DeathMeditation LifeQuantity And Quality Author:Sri Chinmoy
“The greatest of all our human concepts is the immortality of the personality and the eternal glory of the human soul. Throughout eternity you will be yourself and I will be myself, with quickened senses amplified powers of perception, and vastly increased capacity for reason, understanding, love, and happiness, all of which are qualities we may develop now. Our machines wear out, our barns fall down, and our substance goes back to the dust, but our finest collection of personal qualities will have eternal life.” LifeHumansMaySoulReasonFallUnderstandingQualityPersonalityEternalPerceptionGloryConceptsCapacityMachinesEternityDown AndSensesDustSubstanceImmortalityBeing YourselfCollectionsFinestHuman SoulFalling DownEternal LifeBarnsHappiness And LoveUnderstanding LovePersonal Qualities Author:Sterling W Sill
“When a man's life is over, it remains true that he was one sort of man and not another.
