God
-Peter Farb "Peter Farb and George Armelagos"
God is a circle whose centre is everywhere and circumference nowhere.
-Voltaire
The Self-realised soul can impart knowledge unto you and when you have thus learned the truth, you will know that all living beings are but a part of Me-and that they are in Me, and are Mine.
-Srimad Bhagavad Gita
The Gods gave a microbe a drop of water, and in it he lived. They gave an ant a half acre of land, and he prospered. They gave a tiger the forest and he formed an empire and became an emperor. They gave man the Universe and all the knowledge therein. He entered of his own free will the dungeon of Dogma, shut his mind to truth and slew and starved his brothers.
-Scriptures "The Book of Right Feeling"
God is not the name of God, but an opinion about Him.
-Pope Sixtus I
"The Ring"
For all who are led by the spirit of God are sons of God. For you did not receive the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the spirit of sonship.
-Bible "Romans 8.14-17"
To uphold righteousness, so supreme an act did he perform; he gave his head, but did not utter a word of sorrow. For the sake of righteousness, he did this great heroic deed; he laid down his life but not the principles… Guru Tegh Bahadur broke his earthly vase on the head of the Emperor of Delhi – and went to the abode of God.
-A Spiritual Leader "Guru Gobind Singh"
Forgive me for being so ordinary while claiming to know so extraordinary a God.
-Jim Elliot
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.
-Scriptures "Adi Granth"
God is a cloud from which rain fell.
-Dejan Stojanović
