Even when you think you have your life all mapped out, things happen that shape your destiny in ways you might never have imagined.

Deepak Chopra

You don't have a soul. You are a Soul. You have a body.

C. S. Lewis

The spiritual path - is simply the journey of living our lives. Everyone is on a spiritual path; most people just don't know it.

Marianne Williamson

Nothing ever goes away until it has taught us what we need to know.

Pema Chodron

When you examine the lives of the most influential people who have ever walked among us, you discover one thread that winds through them all. They have been aligned first with their spiritual nature and only then with their physical selves.

Albert Einstein

"The present moment dies every moment to become the past , is reborn every moment into the future. All experience is now. Now never ends." --Deepak Chopra

“Don’t depend too much on anyone in this world because even your own shadow leaves you when you are in darkness.”--Ibn Taymiyyah

A life of reaction is a life of slavery, intellectually and spiritually. One must fight for a life of action, not reaction.

Rita Mae Brown

"Life is not accomplishing some special work but attaining to a degree of consciousness and inner freedom which is beyond all works and attainments." Thomas Merton

"Some people prefer solitude. They say their peace of mind depends on this. Others say they would be better off in church. If you do well, you do well wherever you are. If you fail, you fail wherever you are. Your surroundings don't matter. God is with you everywhere -- in the market place as well as in seclusion or in the church. If you look for nothing but God, nothing or no one can disturb you. God is not distracted by a multitude of things. Nor can we be." Meister Eckhart
