“Sometimes I think the people to feel the saddest for are people who are unable to connect with the profound—people such as my boring brother-in-law, a hearty type so concerned with normality and fitting in that he eliminates any possibility of uniqueness for himself and his own personality. I wonder if some day, when he is older, he will wake up and the deeper part of him will realize that he has never allowed himself to truly exist, and he will cry with regret and shame and grief.” PeopleIfsThinkingFeelsSometimesLawRealizingGriefWonderCryPossibilityBrotherRegretTypePersonalityConcernedWake UpShameProfoundBoringDeeperUniquenessIn-lawsFittingSaddestNormalityHeartyBrother In Law Book:Life After God Source: Life After God

“Forgiveness is key to enchanted love because it is key to living right, period. It is the capacity to see beyond the veil of personality and worldly illusions. No one is perfect or attractive every day. Forgiveness means we are capable of relating to someone on a deeper level than the ordinary self. And that we are committed to doing so no matter what the appearances are, no matter what the situation is.” MeanSelfMatterPerfectLove IsLevelsSituationKeysPersonalityPeriodsCapableOrdinaryIllusionCapacityNo Matter WhatCommittedAppearanceDeeperAttractiveWorldlyVeilsEnchantedLiving Right Author:Marianne Williamson
“Education is character development, harmonious completion of human personality. But what the state accomplishes in this field is dull drill, extinction of natural feeling, narrowing of the spiritual field of vision, destruction of all the deeper elements of character in man. The state can train subjects...but it can never develop free men who take their affairs into their own hands; for independent thought is the greatest danger that it has to fear.” MenHumansStatesCharacterFeelingsHandsSpiritualNaturalVisionSubjectsDangerFieldsPersonalityDevelopmentElementsDestructionIndependentTrainAffairDeeperAccomplishDullExtinctionHarmoniousFree ManCompletionDrillsCharacter DevelopmentIndependent ThoughtHuman PersonalityNatural Feelings Author:Rudolf Rocker

“The truth is that we are a part of God. God could not have created anything except out of his own consciousness. We're all his dream, and our duty in life that God has assigned to us, that the universe has placed squarely in our laps, is to find out who we really are. "Gnothi seauton," as the Greeks used to say. "Know thyself." But to know thyself, if you trace it back, to the deeper and deeper levels, you discover that that self is not your body or your ego or your personality or your country or anything, that's just a sack of self-definitions that you carry around with you” IfsKnowsSelfCountryDreamBodyUsedUniverseLevelsConsciousnessDutyPersonalityTruth IsEgoDefinitionsDeeperYour BodyGreekLapThyselfKnow Thyself Author:Goswami Kriyananda
