“In my own spiritual journey, I became a swami on the Hindu path of Bhakti. In the Hindu tradition, a swami is a monk who forgoes regular family life for the purpose of making the whole world his family and channels his full energy into spiritual practice, devotion to God and service to humanity.” WorldWholeSpiritualPurposeHumanityEnergyMy OwnPracticePathJourneyTraditionDevotionWhole WorldMonkFamily LifeSpiritual JourneySpiritual PracticeService To HumanityBhaktiDevotion To God Author:Radhanath Swami

“Thankfulness is not something God gives us. It is not a spiritual gift and it is not a spiritual fruit. We can receive God's peace, joy and love, but thankfulness is something that we give to Godand to others. It is a choice that we make. Let us thank Him today with songs of celebration, hearts of strong devotion and acts of admiration.” GivingHeartTodaySpiritualJoySongChoicesStrongAnd LoveFruitDevotionAdmirationCelebrationThanksgivingThankfulnessSpiritual Gifts Author:Roy Lessin
“It should be for satsang that we go to spiritual centers. By going there, people who are involved in the world can attain peace and concentration. The concentration gained when one goes there cannot be achieved if one sits at home. Even though the breeze blows everywhere, coolness will be felt more if we sit in the shade of a tree. In the same way, although God is all-pervading, this presence will clearly shine in certain places more than others. That is the greatness of satsang. Satsang is the best thing for spiritual advancement.” PeopleIfsWorldWayShouldHomeSpiritualCertainFeltTreeGreatnessInvolvedShiningBlowDevotionBest ThingsConcentrationShadeBreezeAdvancementCoolnessSatsang Author:Mata Amritanandamayi
“Christians can not truly evangelize unless they are prepared to be evangelized in the process. In sharing the good news, people are enriched by the spiritual insights, honest questions and depth of devotion demonstrated by those of other faiths. Including others involves listening to them, learning from them. Much of what exists in other faiths may not necessarily be hostile to the kingdom. Christians can learn a lot from other walks of life.” PeopleMayChristianSpiritualProcessWalksHonestListeningNewsPreparedDepthIncludingInsightDevotionKingdomsCan NotGood NewsHostileWalks Of LifeSpiritual InsightIncluding Others Author:Eddie Gibbs
“Rational thinking which is free from assumptions ends therefore in mysticism. To relate oneself in the spirit of reverence for life to the multiform manifestations of the will-to-live which together constitute the world is ethical mysticism. All profound world-view is mysticism, the essence of which is just this: that out of my unsophisticated and naïve existence in the world there comes, as a result of thought about self and the world, spiritual self-devotion to the mysterious infinite Will which is continuously manifested in the universe.” ThinkingWorldEndsSelfTogetherSpiritualSpiritUniverseResultsViewsExistenceEssenceInfiniteProfoundOneselfDevotionRationalMysteriousRelateManifestationAssumptionMysticismEthicalReverenceRational ThinkingWorld ViewReverence For LifeWill To Live Author:Albert Schweitzer
“There is need of a great revival of spiritual life, of truly fervent devotion to our Lord Jesus, of entire consecration to His service. It is only in a church in which this spirit of revival has at least begun, that there is any hope of radical change in the relation of the majority of our Christian people to mission work.” PeopleNeedsChristianSpiritualSpiritJesusChurchChristianityLordRelationMajorityMissionsDevotionRadicalSpiritual LifeRevivalOur LordFerventRevival PrayerConsecrationRadical Change Author:Andy Murray
