“I am often struck by the dangerous narcissism fostered by spiritual rhetoric that pays so much attention to individual self-improvement and so little to the practice of love within the context of community.”
Bell Hooks, All About Love: New Visions

Carl Sagan
“Everything not forbidden by the laws of nature, he assured her - quoting a colleague down the hall - is mandatory.”
Carl Sagan, Contact

Jeff Foster
“Oh yes, for sure, there will be heartbreak! And you will learn to get out of your head and into your immediate embodied experience, coming out of mental stories and conclusions, and contacting the raw energy of the here and now, directly feeling the devastation of your dreams rather than intellectualizing everything away, letting the grief, anger, and sorrow of millennia surge through your pores, rather than dismissing it all as an “illusion,” or distracting yourself with fresh dreams. All”
Jeff Foster, The Way of Rest: Finding the Courage to Hold Everything in Love

Adyashanti
“You are an incredible mystery that you will never figure out. To be this mystery consciously is the greatest joy.”
Adyashanti

Tara Brach
“In the Lakota/Sioux tradition, a person who is grieving is considered most wakan, most holy. There's a sense that when someone is struck by the sudden lightning of loss, he or she stands on the threshold of the spirit world. The prayers of those who grieve are considered especially strong, and it is proper to ask them for their help.
You might recall what it's like to be with someone who has grieved deeply. The person has no layer of protection, nothing left to defend. The mystery is looking out through that person's eyes. For the time being, he or she has accepted the reality of loss and has stopped clinging to the past or grasping at the future. In the groundless openness of sorrow, there is a wholeness of presence and a deep natural wisdom.”
Tara Brach, True Refuge: Finding Peace and Freedom in Your Own Awakened Heart
