To have a body is to suffer. Those who understand this, detach themselves from all that exists and stop imagining or seeking anything. The sutras say, “To seek is to suffer. To seek nothing is bliss.” When you seek nothing, you’re on the Path.
When you find your path, you must not be afraid. You need to have sufficient courage to make mistakes. Disappointment, defeat, and despair are the tools God uses to show us the way.
-Paulo Coelho
The person who tries to stand still on the path will find that it has vanished.
-Carl Japikse
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.
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.
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.

We cannot hold a torch to light another’s path without brightening our own first.
If you want to succeed you should strike out on new paths, rather than travel the worn paths of accepted success.
-John D. Rockfeller
No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.
