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.
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
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.
There are many possibilities that people can choose from. There are bad and there are good ones. So, look carefully to choose for yourself the noble path…
Often the right path is the one that may be hardest for you to follow. But the hard path is also the one that will make you grow as a human being.
-Karen Mueller Coombs
"Bully at Ambush Corner"
No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.
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.
Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.
We cannot hold a torch to light another’s path without brightening our own first.
If you can find a path with no obstacles, it probably doesn’t lead anywhere.
-Frank A. Clark
