'When the human spirit, after years of imprisonment in the cage & dungeons of the body, is at last set free, & wings its flight to the Source whence it came, is this not an occasion for rejoicing, & thanks, & dancing?'
Jalal Al-Din, Sufi poet.
“Know then that the body is merely a garment.
Go & seek the wearer, not the cloak.”
Rumi, 13th century Persian poet
"I like your Christ; I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ."
Mohandas Gandhi
"The Yogic scriptures say that God responds to the sacred prayers & efforts of human beings IN ANY WAY WHATSOEVER that mortals choose to worship - just so long as those prayers are sincere. As one line from the Upanishads suggests: 'People follow different paths, straight or crooked, according to their temperament, depending on which they consider best, or most appropriate - & all reach You, just as rivers enter the ocean."
