The material universe exists only in the mind.
-Jonathan Edward
In thinking, “This is I” and “That is mine”, he binds himself with his self, as does a bird with a snare.
A man is truly free, even here in this embodied state, if he knows that God is the true agent and he by himself is powerless to do anything.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
Out of 100 men, one will read the Bible, the other 99 will read the Christian.
-Dwight Lyman Moody
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.
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.
