So it is that every spiritual healing is the result of one individual sitting in the Silence, quietly, peacefully waiting, and then the Spirit comes through the consciousness of that one - the voice thunders in the Silence, and the earth melts.

Joel S. Goldsmith

I was utterly alone with the sun and the earth. Lying down on the grass, I spoke in my soul to the earth, the sun, the air, and the distant sea.

Richard Jefferies

Seek refuge in inner calm, free your thoughts from the external world and you will feel the rays of Gods goodness and love pouring over you and the universe.

Iranschahr

There is a silence into which the world cannot intrude. There is an ancient peace you carry in your heart and have not lost.

Praying is not about asking; it is about listening. It is just opening your eyes to see what was there all along.

Chagdud Tulku Rinpoche

...when thou art quiet and silent, then art thou as God was before nature and creature; thou art that which God then was; thou art that whereof he made thy nature and creature: Then thou hearest and seest even with that wherewith God himself saw and heard in thee, before ever thine own willing or thine own seeing began.

Jacob Boehme

Daily silence experienced in humility and fervour as an indispensable exercise in spiritual nourishment gradually creates within us a permanent state of silence. The soul discovers in such silence unsuspected possibilities. It realizes that life can be lived at different levels.

Pierre Lacont

Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace
whose mind is stayed on thee.


Isaiah 26:3

Perfect bliss grows only in the heart made tranquil.


Hindu Proverb

When man sits, then the coarse passions subside and the luminous mind arises in awareness: Thus consciousness is illuminated.

Meister Eckhart

God will come to you much sooner, if you will but stay completely still, instead of searching for him wildly, till body and soul fall ill.

Angelus Silesius

I will sit and be silent
and listen to Gods voice within me.


Meister Eckhart

As long as the soul is not still there can be no vision, but when stillness has brought us into the presence of God, then another sort of silence, much more absolute, intervenes: the silence of a soul that is not only still and recollected but which is overawed in an act of worship by Gods presence.

Metropolitan Anthony Bloom

When the soul collects all its interior powers within, and when the body collects all its external senses and unites them to the soul, the Holy Spirit approaches and breathes into this union quietude and peace.

Father Andrew

There is a place in you where there is perfect peace. There is a place in you where nothing is impossible. There is a place in you where the strength of God abides.

A Course in Miracles

The hermit has an obligation to offer to the world what he has received as enlightenment in his isolation.

Lambros Kamperides

There are really only two things to do: one is to be still and listen, the other is to take spiritually based action. Everything else is bogus activity which only gets in the way of your real understanding.

Joy Houghton

A love of excellence makes the small thing a source of satisfaction. On the inner planes, thorough work creates archetypes that ensoul the object as long as it exists.

Flower A. Newhouse

Nothing is more dangerous than an idea.
When it is the only one you have.


Emile Chartier

If you are seeking creative ideas, go out walking.
Angels whisper to a man when he goes for a walk.


Raymond Inmon

Imagination is one of the motivating agencies that helps transform your beliefs into physical experience. To dislodge unsuitable beliefs and establish new ones, the proper use of imagination can then propel ideas in any direction you desire.

Seth

It is time to show the strength of water, and flow away. To stand is to be crushed, but to flow out is to gather new strength.

Marge Piercy

Instead of seeing the rug being pulled from under us, we can learn to dance on a shifting carpet.

Thomas Crum

The only aspect of time that is eternal is now.


A Course in Miracles

Let the clock and the earth do their own thing .. Let the comings and goings of life continue .. But YOU stay HERE and NOW. This exercise is to bring you to the Eternal Present where it all is.

Ram Dass
