God has no religion.
The symbolism of the Goddess is not a parallel structure to the symbolism of God the Father. The Goddess does not rule the world. She is the world, manifest in each of us, she can be known internally by every individual, in all her magnificent diversity.
Forgive me for being so ordinary while claiming to know so extraordinary a God.
-Jim Elliot
People do not know what the name of God can do. Those who repeat it constantly alone know its power. It can purify your mind completely…
God can be realized 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.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
Devotion to God’s Name is my lamp; In this lamp is poured the oil of suffering. The light of realisation burns away this oil…Vast loads of firewood are reduced to ashes by a tiny spark of fire.
Because God has made us for Himself, our hearts are restless until they rest in Him.
-Saint Augustine of Hippo
God has given you one face, and you make yourself another.
-William Shakespeare
To whom praise and blame are equal, who is silent, content with every fortune, home-renouncing, steadfast in mind, and worships Me, that person is dear to me.
