Who knows this truly, and who will now declare it, what paths lead together to the gods? Only their lowest aspects of existence are seen, who exist on supreme, mystical planes.
-Vedas "Rig Veda"
Who knows this truly, and who will now declare it, what paths lead together to the gods? Only their lowest aspects of existence are seen, who exist on supreme, mystical planes.
Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
Any path is only a path, and there is no affront to oneself or to others, in dropping it if that is what your heart tells you.
Man learns through experience, and the spiritual path is full of different kinds of experiences. He will encounter many difficulties and obstacles, and they are the very experiences he needs to encourage and complete the cleansing process.
The Eightfold Path: Right view, right aim, right speech, right action, right living, right effort, right mindfulness, right contemplation.
We can never judge the lives of others, because each person knows only their own pain and renunciation. It's one thing to feel that you are on the right path, but it's another to think that yours is the only path.
-Paulo Coelho
You cannot travel the path until you have become the path itself.
The person who tries to stand still on the path will find that it has vanished.
-Robert R. Leichtman
As the heat of a fire reduces wood to ashes, the fire of knowledge burns to ashes all karma. Nothing in this world purifies like spiritual wisdom. It is the perfection achieved in time through the path of yoga, the path which leads to the Self within.
If you want to succeed you should strike out on new paths, rather than travel the worn paths of accepted success.
-John D. Rockfeller
