Set your faces towards unity, and let the radiance of its light shine upon you. Gather ye together, and for the sake of God resolve to root out whatever is the source of contention among you. Then will the effulgence of the world’s great Luminary envelop the whole earth, and its inhabitants become citizens of one city, and the occupants of one and the same throne.
God first created light, all men are born out of it. The whole world came out of a single spark; who is good and who is bad? The Creator is in the creation, and the creation in the Creator, He is everywhere…He who surrenders to Him gets to know Him. God is invisible, He cannot be seen. The Guru has granted me this sweet gift. My doubts are dispelled. I have seen the Pure with my own eyes.
Only by doing good can one benefit. Those who detach themselves from ‘bad’ and yearn for ‘good’, dedicate their lives to God…and to service of scholars shall be blessed.
It is easy to understand God as long as you don't try to explain him.
-Joseph Joubert
If you want to make God laugh, tell him about your plans.
-Woody Allen
God loveth those who are pure. No one is more loved than one of purity and immaculate cleanliness.
The soul may ask God for anything, and never fail.

God brings men into deep waters, not to drown them, but to cleanse them.
-James H. Aughey
God doesn’t need to punish us. He just grants us a long enough life to punish ourselves.

Food to a large extent is what holds a society together and eating is closely linked to deep spiritual experiences.
