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 don't like the path your life has taken, choose another.
-Robert G. DeMers
"The Iceman"
All know the way; few actually walk it.
-Bodhidharma
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.
No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.
God can be realised through all paths. All religions are true. The important thing is to reach the roof. You can reach it by stone stairs or by wooden stairs or by bamboo steps or by a rope. You can also climb up by a bamboo pole.
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
If you can find a path with no obstacles, it probably doesn’t lead anywhere.
-Frank A. Clark
When you travel towards your objective, be sure to pay attention to the path. The path teaches us the best way to arrive and enriches us while we are travelling along it.
