Swami Vivekananda

Space-time-causation, or name-and-form, is what is called Maya.

Swami Vivekananda

Freedom can never be true of name and form; it is the clay out of which we (the pots) are made; then it is limited and not free, so that freedom can never be true of the related. One pot can never say "I am free" as a pot; only as it loses all ideas of form does it become free.

Swami Vivekananda

Swami Vivekananda

Rush Limbaugh

There's such cultural rot taking place, such a disintegration throughout our culture. Values, morality, you name it. Standards have been relaxed, and people are not being held to them. People's intentions, if they're said to be good and honorable, that's all that matters.

Rush Limbaugh

Ray Stevenson

In the present there is only consciousness, awareness, watchfulness.
