principles spirituality found
As the lesser is always found within the greater, so this principle holds true with regards to time and the eternal.
spiritual important desire
In these times - where social appearance is more important than spiritual substance - what has become our longing to change is really the unconscious desire to control not just the shape of our bodies (according to prevailing values) but to dominate our environment as well, regardless of the cost.
spiritual needs realizing
If we're interested in spiritual things, we gradually realize that what we really need is to understand this nature that seems to be a bottomless basket, because there is no peace in it.
spiritual dark light
A whole new kind of spiritual happiness dawns in us as we realize that dark clouds do not ruin sunny skies... they merely pass through them to help us remember our love of the light.
spiritual clever lying
Don't believe what the spiritual sharks and clever carnival hustlers tell you about fearless living - they lie.
spiritual light consciousness
Every truth ever discovered, each new spiritual light that will ever burn bright has already been seeded in our consciousness.
spiritual wisdom limits
It's a paradox of the true spiritual path, but the more conscious we become of what limits us, the more limitless becomes our life.
spiritual ruts impossible
No condition outside ourselves can create a rut or trap us in it. It's impossible.
dwelling emotion mentally negative trick tricks
Discouragement is a negative emotion with more than one trick up its darksleeve. It tricks you into mentally or emotionally dwelling in the very place youwant to leave.
divine freely gives life save themselves truth
When it comes to the fearless life, the divine gives nothing freely... save to those who freely give themselves to discovering the truth about their own fearless selves.
filled lives needs quite
We go through our lives in a continual dance of being filled with something that needs an answer, and then going out and finding that answer... only to find out that our answer wasn't quite the answer.
across again birth body earth leaves longer nourish others race relationships themselves within
Within us - the heart of us, really - is a 'ground' that is to our thoughts and feelings, our relationships with others and ourselves, as is the Earth to the leaves that first race across her and then, no longer able to run, give themselves up to nourish her body so that she may give birth again come the spring.
appear consciousness created disappear dwells far form greater higher merely order passing river time within
Within each of us dwells a higher order of consciousness created with a possibility far greater than to merely appear and disappear as some form in the river of passing time.
deepest explore fulfilling longing nature original self treasures
What is the nature of that place where our original self is one with its longing to explore its own deepest possibilities, and where discovering the treasures waiting there is the same as fulfilling our purpose for being?
