Spirituality Quotes Quotes

“Although we have goodwill towards everyone, our response to people needs to be appropriate to the situation. Otherwise, we can become foolish, weak, conciliatory or naive. If a gentle word works, wonderful. If not, we may need to be more direct. If that still doesn’t work, spiritually-conscious beings have a great deal of power backing them to use for the purpose of protecting the evolution of all that is genuinely good.”

“Let me tell you a secret about the human condition. Nihilism leads to spirituality. And spirituality leads to nihilism. It is never in between for long. It is always a see-saw in action. Yes, my dear child, one can’t remain mystical all the time, for hopelessness creeps into even the most positive of minds. But this hopelessness, this cynicism too is not permanent. Man, you see, swings between nihilism and spirituality. Man, you see, swings between utmost bliss and the feelings of utter despair. It’s a rollercoaster, our lives. One can’t just go higher, higher all the time.”

“The term spirit might have evolved in a mystical fashion, but in today’s civilized and thinking society, it refers to simply your inner self. Spirit is the self, and the self is the soul. Hence, a spiritual person is a person who is more interested in realizing his or her inner self, than giving in to any conformity of the society.”

“One of the most important tasks we can do in our lifetime is share our life experiences. Our experiences are powerful. They all matter. And they should be shared.”

“If you think your religion requires discrimination, you're probably misreading your faith.”

“The only way you're going to reach places you've never gone is if you trust God's direction to do things you've never done.”

“All religions are man-made; God has not yet revealed himself beyond doubt to anybody.”

“If you have ever watched a football game, you will likely recall that while the game is being played, there is a commentator who is narrating the plays of the game and making interpretations. Our thoughts are just like this. In our mind, we have the direct experience and we have the commentator that narrates and describes our direct experience. The commentator of a football game isn’t really necessary, and he doesn’t affect the activity of the game in any way. He is just describing the game to the audience, and doing so from his perspective, with his own opinions, based on his mood, memory, education, past experiences and so on. In ourselves, the commentator is also unnecessary, and does not change the experience that it is commenting on. It merely describes it from its own biased perspective, with its own opinions, based on its mood, memory, education, past experiences, and so on. Our problem is that we have mistaken the comments of the commentator for the reality that is being commented on. We have confused our own identity as being that of the commentator, and we believe that what is being described is actually the truth of reality.”

“Each mind conceives god in its own way. There may be as many variation of the god figure as there are people in the world”
