Wendell Berry
“Rats and roaches live by competition under the laws of supply and demand; it is the privilege of human beings to live under the laws of justice and mercy.”
Wendell Berry

Christopher D. Wallis
“The great master Abhinava Gupta suggests to us that if you practice yoga from the perspective that you are not good enough as you are, or that there is something wrong with you that needs fixing, then your yoga cannot fulfill its ultimate purpose because it is a practice founded on wrong understanding. It can only go as far as fulfilling the limited purpose that has been conceived by your limited ego-mind. However, if you undertake the practice of yoga with the right View of yourself, that you already are a perfect and whole expression of the Divine and that you are doing yoga to realize and then fully express what is already true, then you have empowered your practice to take you all the way.”
Christopher D. Wallis, Tantra Illuminated: The Philosophy, History, and Practice of a Timeless Tradition

Zeb Lancaster
“To be confirmed and affirmed in our own evolving uniqueness by the essential unified ground-of-being, is the source of our compassion for our self and humanity. The self-realization that grows within every human being, can be actualized in its authentic form, only when our evolving-self is fully received in the presence of the most fundamental manifestation of our existence, our unchanging-self. This confirmation is at the heart of the whole-being-embrace communion that promotes self-love, healing and flourishing.”
Zeb Lancaster , Nondual Chakra Awakening: A Hero’s Journey to Healing Relationship Injury in Seven Holographic Stages - Yoga Meets Attachment Psychology

“And yet what if our definition of life is far too limited? What if everything is living, in that everything is made up of the consciousness of the Creator? And by direct implication, what if everything is aware? What if the water is aware? And what if the electron is aware? Not aware in the same way as the human being is aware, of course, with our ability to reason, but still fundamentally aware on a basic level of existence because it is imbued with the very fuel of awareness—universal consciousness.”
Ziad Masri, Reality Unveiled

Mirabai Starr
“There is a secret place. A radiant sanctuary. As real as your own kitchen. More real than that. Constructed of the purest elements. Overflowing with the ten thousand beautiful things. Worlds within worlds. Forests, rivers. Velvet coverlets thrown over featherbeds, fountains bubbling beneath a canopy of stars. Bountiful forests, universal libraries. A wine cellar offering an intoxi cation so sweet you will never be sober again. A clarity so complete you will never again forget. This magnificent refuge is inside you. Enter. Shatter the darkness that shrouds the doorway… Believe the incredible truth that the Beloved has chosen for his dwelling place the core of your own being because that is the single most beautiful place in all of creation.”
Mirabai Starr, Interior Castle
