“As with other movements of the spirit, simplicity can be both a cause and an effect. As a spiritual path develops, so there is a yearning for a simpler life; as we simplify our life, so the inner voice becomes clearer.” SpiritualSpiritPathSimplicityYearningInner VoiceSimplify Book:Simplicity Made Easy Source: Simplicity Made Easy
“Yes, the highest things are beyond words. That is probably why all art aspires to the condition of wordlessness. When literature works on you, it does so in silence, in your dreams, in your wordless moments. Good words enter you and become moods, become the quiet fabric of your being. Like music, like painting, literature too wants to transcend its primary condition and become something higher. Art wants to move into silence, into the emotional and spiritual conditions of the world. Statues become melodies, melodies become yearnings, yearnings become actions.” WorldWantDoeArtMomentsDreamActionSpiritualMovingLiteratureSilenceConditionsEmotionalPaintingHigherQuietHighestMoodPrimariesYour DreamsMelodyYearningFabricAspireStatuesGood Words Author:Ben Okri

“To make your spiritual yearning public, I thought, was to announce that you were wounded. To turn deeply into religion was to admit that your own resources were so weak you had to resort to magic and miracle cures for healing. To acquire faith was to mobilize the powers of an overly active imagination.” SpiritualReligionTurnsWomenImaginationHealingMagicResourcesWeakMiracleActiveCuresAcquireYearningWoundedResorts Book:Words on Fire: One Woman's Journey Into the Sacred Source: Words on Fire: One Woman's Journey Into the Sacred
“This is our challenge at the beginning of the twenty-first century - we need to find the courage to see our own spiritual yearnings in the biggest possible context, in such a way that is going to compel us to finally transcend our self-concern. We need to find the heart to come together in such a way that will enable us to face the challenges before us. And to do this, we need a new spirituality. We need a new enlightenment.” WayNeedsFirstsHeartSelfTogetherFacesSpiritualSpiritualityChallengesCourageCenturyEnlightenmentConcernTwentiesYearning Author:Andrew Cohen
“A life without love is a waste. 'Should I look for spiritual love, or material, or physical love?', don't ask yourself this question. Discrimination leads to discrimination. Love doesn't need any name, category or definition. Love is a world itself.
