Important Quotations from Allspirit.com


" Never put anyone out of your heart... " ~ Neem Karoli Baba

~ ~ ~ People will do anything, no matter how absurd, in order to avoid facing their own soul. ~ Carl Gustav Jung ~ ~ ~

Acquire the courage to believe in yourself. Many of the things that you have been taught were at one time the radical ideas of individuals who had the courage to believe what their own hearts and minds told them was true, rather than accept the common beliefs of their day. ~ Ching Ning Chu ~ ~ ~ "
When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants, and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall. Think of it...always." ~ Mahatma Gandhi ~ ~ ~

Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust consume and where thieves break in and steal, but lay up for yourself treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consumes and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. ~ Jesus

~ ~ ~ There's music in the sighing of a reed; There's music in the gushing of a rill; There's music in all things, if men had ears: Their earth is but an echo of the spheres. ~ Lord Byron ~ ~ ~

Do everything with a mind that lets go. Don't accept praise or gain or anything else. If you let go a little you will have a little peace; if you let go a lot you will have a lot of peace; if you let go completely you will have complete peace. ~ Ajahn Chah ~ ~ ~

You must understand the whole of life, not just one little part of it. That is why you must read, that is why you must look at the skies, that is why you must sing and dance, and write poems, and suffer, and understand, for all that is life. ~

J.Krishnamurti
~ ~ ~ Here I sit between my brother the mountain and my sister the sea. We three are one in loneliness, and the love that binds us together is deep and strong and strange. ~ Kahlil Gibran ~ ~ ~

Outside ideas of right doing and wrong doing there is a field. I'll meet you there. ~ Rumi ~ ~ ~

Let your life lightly dance on the edges of time like dew on the tip of a leaf. ~ Rabindranath Tagore ~ ~ ~

Love expects no reward. Love knows no fear. Love Divine gives - does not demand.
Love thinks no evil; imputes no motive. To Love is to share and serve. ~ Sivananda ~ ~ ~

My sun sets to rise again. ~ Robert Browning

~ ~ ~ If we could read the secret history of our enemies we should find in each man's life sorrow and suffering enough to disarm all hostility. ~ Longfellow ~ ~ ~

When we are face to face with truth, the point of view of Krishna, Buddha, Christ, or any other Prophet, is the same. When we look at life from the top of the mountain, there is no limitation; there is the same immensity. ~ Hazrat Inayat Khan ~ ~ ~

I honor those who try to rid themselves of any lying, who empty the self and have only clear being there. ~ Rumi ~ ~ ~

My atheism, like that of Spinoza, is true piety towards the universe and denies only gods fashioned by men in their own image to be servants of their human interests. ~ George Santayana ~ ~ ~

Do not keep the alabaster box of your friendship sealed up until your friends are dead. Fill their lives with sweetness. Speak approving, cheering words while their ears can hear them, and while their hearts can be thrilled and made happier. The kind of things you mean to say when they are gone, say before they go. ~ George W. Childs ~ ~ ~

People are where they are because that's exactly where they really want to be...whether they'll admit that or not. ~ Earl Nightingale ~ ~ ~

There will come a time when you believe everything is finished. That will be the beginning. ~ Louis L'Amour ~ ~ ~

Come, fill the Cup, and in the Fire of Spring The Winter Garment of Repentance fling: The Bird of Time has but a little way To fly--and Lo! the Bird is on the Wing. ~ Omar Khayyam ~ ~ ~

Life and death: they are one, at core entwined. Who understands himself from his own strain presses himself into a drop of wine and throws himself into the purest flame. ~ Rainer Maria Rilke ~ ~ ~

We shall not cease from exploring, And the end of our exploring Will be to arrive where we started And know the place for the first time. ~ T.S. Eliot ~ ~ ~

For one human being to love another: that is perhaps the most difficult of all our tasks, the ultimate, the last test and proof, the work for which all other work is but preparation. ~ Rainer Maria Rilke ~ ~ ~

Go to the truth beyond the mind. Love is the bridge. ~ Stephen Levine ~ ~ ~

People deal too much with the negative, with what is wrong... Why not try and see positive things, to just touch those things and make them bloom? ~ Thich Nhat Hanh ~ ~ ~

No man, for any considerable period, can wear one face to himself, and another to the multitude, without finally getting bewildered as to which may be true. ~ Nathaniel Hawthorne ~ ~ ~

We carry within us the wonders we seek without us. ~ Sir Thomas Browne ~ ~ ~

What is to give light must endure burning. ~ Viktor Frankl ~ ~ ~

The less you open your heart to others, the more your heart suffers. ~ Deepak Chopra ~ ~ ~

Keep me away from the wisdom which does not cry, the philosophy which does not laugh and the greatness which does not bow before children. ~ Kahlil Gibran ~ ~ ~


This is love: to fly toward a secret sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment. First to let go of life. Finally, to take a step without feet. ~ Rumi ~ ~ ~

What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the master calls a butterfly. ~ Richard Bach ~ ~ ~

Teachers open the door, but you must enter by yourself. ~ Chinese Proverb ~ ~ ~

If you are pained by external things, it is not they that disturb you, but your own judgment of them. And it is in your power to wipe out that judgment now. ~ Marcus Aurelius ~ ~ ~

God said to Moses, "I AM WHO I AM." ~ Exodus 3:14 ~ ~ ~

If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion." ~ The 14th Dalai Lama ~ ~ ~

​ The same stream of life that runs through the world runs through my veins night and day in rhythmic measure. It is the same life that shoots in joy through the dust of the earth into numberless waves of flowers." ~ Rabindranath Tagore
Maturity begins to grow when you can sense your concern for others outweighing your concern for yourself. ~ John Macnaughton ~ ~ ~

After winter comes the summer. After night comes the dawn. And after every storm, there comes clear, open skies. ~ Samuel Rutherford ~ ~ ~

It is possible to give without loving, but it is impossible to love without giving. ~ Richard Braunstein ~ ~ ~

Learn your lessons quickly and move on. ~ Eileen Caddy ~ ~ ~

Silence is a great help to a seeker after truth. In the attitude of silence the soul finds the path in a clearer light and what is elusive and deceptive resolves itself into crystal clearness. Our life is a long and arduous quest after Truth, and the soul requires inward restfulness to attain its full height. ~ Mohandas K Gandhi ~ ~ ~


Keep your faith in beautiful things; in the sun when it is hidden, in the Spring when it is gone. ~ Roy R. Gibson ~ ~ ~

There are two ways of passing from this world - one in light and one in darkness. When one passes in light, he does not come back; but when one passes in darkness, he returns. ~ Bhagavad Gita ~ ~ ~

Nirvana or lasting enlightenment or true spiritual growth can be achieved only through persistent exercise of real love. ~ M. Scott Peck ~ ~ ~

Love thy neighbor as thyself: Do not do to others what thou wouldst not wish be done to thyself: Forgive injuries. Forgive thy enemy, be reconciled to him, give him assistance, invoke God in his behalf. ~ Confucius ~ ~ ~ Should you shield the valleys from the windstorms, you would never see the beauty of their canyons. ~ Elisabeth Kubler-Ross ~ ~ ~

"... here is the deepest secret nobody knows (here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide) and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)..." ~ e. e. cummings ~ ~ ~
