“As you awaken more to the truth of your being, you have a greater capacity to be present for more and more challenging experiences, and those experiences find a completion through you instead of getting stuck in you.” Adyashanti (The Way of Liberating Insight” study course)

“Letting go gives us freedom, and freedom is the only condition for happiness. If, in our heart, we still cling to anything – anger, guilt, or possessions – we cannot be free.”  Thich Nhat Hanh (The Heart of Buddha’s Teachings)

“God first has to belong to you before you will ever have the courage to believe that you could belong to God! This is the first and final impact of our belief in an Indwelling Holy Spirit who emanates from God, exemplifies God precisely as us, and then takes us back to where we came from – despite our many resistances and rebellions.  Richard Rohr (homily “God Must Belong”)

“Collectively, we’re moving towards the Omega point; but every time you and I hate, fear, compete, attach, judge, separate – thus avoiding the necessary letting go – we are resisting the full flow of Love, the energy which is driving the universe forward.” Richard Rohr (The Cosmic Christ)

“Christ invests himself organically within all creation, immersing himself in things, in the heart of the matter, and thus unifying the world. The universe is physically impregnated to the very core of its matter by the influence of his superhuman nature.  Everything is physically “christified,” gathered up by the incarnate Word as nourishment that assimilates, transforms, and divinizes.”  Ilia Delio

“When the mind passes through the brain and the five senses, the names and forms [of this world] are projected out from within. When the mind abides in the Heart, they return and lie buried there.” Garland of Guru’s Sayings

“Through the sacred art of pausing, we develop the capacity to stop hiding, to stop running away from our experience. We begin to trust in our natural intelligence, in our naturally wise heart, in our capacity to open to whatever arises.”  Tara Brach (Radical Acceptance)

“You can do anything with the thoughts of your mind. They are yours and under your control.  You can direct them, coerce them, hush them, or crush them… When you fully apprehend this, and begin to exercise your God-given dominion, you begin to find the way to God, the door to God, the door of mind and thought.”  Charles Fillmore (Prosperity)

“Suffering is primarily a call for attention, which itself is a movement of love. More than happiness, love wants growth, the widening and deepening of awareness and consciousness and being.  Whatever prevents that, becomes a cause of pain, and love does not shirk pain.”  Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

“Life is the energy of love, fully embodied and eager to manifest itself in the world. Everything else life does is merely a prelude to, and a platform for, love’s boundless and eternal self-expression.”  Eileen Workman (social media post)
