When you observe the ego in yourself, you are beginning to go beyond it.
-Eckhart Tolle
The sincere devotee loves God deeply whether he is non-active and silently meditating on God, or in the midst of a whirl of outer activities.
The feet of the humblest may walk in the field where the feet of the holiest trod. This, then, is the marvel to mortals revealed. When the silvery trumpets of Christmas have pealed, that mankind are children of God.
Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead.
Love you will find only where you may show yourself weak without provoking strength.
-Theodor W. Adorno
