- Marianne Williamson: “The spiritual journey is the unlearning of fear and prejudices and the acceptance of love back in our hearts. Love is the essential reality and our purpose on earth. To be consciously aware of it, to experience love in ourselves and others, is the meaning of life.”
- Rumi: “Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.” –
- Rumi: “Your heart is the size of an ocean. Go find yourself in its hidden depths.”
- Wayne Dyer: “Begin to see yourself as a soul with a body rather than a body with a soul.”
- Marianne Williamson: “Everyone is on a spiritual path; most people just don’t know it. The spiritual journey is the unlearning of fear and the acceptance of love.”
- Joseph Campbell: “Your sacred space is where you can find yourself over and over again.”
- Adyashanti: “The main requirement for spiritual growth: A yearning to know who you really are.”
- Preethaji and Krishnaji: “What does it mean to be truly alive? We have the potential to experience extraordinary states of consciousness, to feel connected with others, to feel connected to everything. To be in awe of this movement of life. That’s the potential of human consciousness: to connect, to love, to be one. To experience a love that knows no boundaries; to experience a total state of oneness. That’s the potential and the purpose of human life, the human brain, and the human body.”
- bell hooks: “[Love is] the will to extend one’s self for the purpose of nurturing one’s own or another’s spiritual growth… Love is as love does. Love is an act of will-namely, both an intention and an action. Will also implies choice. We do not have to love. We choose to love.”
