For the God of the holy world and the God of the dark world are not two Gods; there is but one only God: he himself is all being, essence or substance; he is evil and good, heaven and hell, light and darkness, eternity and time, beginning and end. - #JacobBoehme (h/t @visiosmaragdina.bsky.social)

We have this incurable weakness for thinking about inner values on much too small a scale, giving up too soon & paying too little. #Ouspensky called this inner search for reality a search for the miraculous. We always forget that what we are looking for is a miracle. - #JohnSinclair, #LordPentland

Virtue itself turns vice, being misapplied, And vice sometime by action dignified. - #Shakespeare, 'Romeo & Juliet' Act 2, Scene 3, Line 20

The true knowledge of the self is not a knowledge. It is not something that you find by searching, by looking everywhere. It is not to be found in space or time.

Insist on yourself. Never imitate. - #RalphWaldoEmerson

Whoever makes all cares into one care, the care for simply being present, will be relieved of all care by that Presence, which is the creative power. - #KabirHelminksi

Every man gets up in the morning and either sells his soul and destroys it or purifies his soul and frees it. - #AlGhazali

The ego does not vanish in awakening —it evolves. It is no longer the master, but a servant of awareness. Life moves through you, but you no longer cling to the one who claims to control it. —Amoda Maa
