We cannot hold a torch to light another’s path without brightening our own first.

We cannot hold a torch to light another’s path without brightening our own first.
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 can find a path with no obstacles, it probably doesn’t lead anywhere.
-Frank A. Clark
As men approach Me, so I receive them. All paths, Arjuna, lead to Me.
No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.
The person who tries to stand still on the path will find that it has vanished.
-Carl Japikse
Choose your own way, to suit your own taste, temperament and capacity. There’s no need to criticise or condemn those who follow a different path. Spiritual hunger is the same in all – the ‘food’ to satisfy their hunger may vary.
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.
All know the way; few actually walk it.
-Bodhidharma
Truth, being limitless, unconditioned, unapproachable by any path whatsoever, cannot be organised; nor should any organisation be formed to lead or to coerce people along any particular path.
