The God Seed Quotes

“So, one take-away from this story is this: what if you could not even think the recurring thoughts that distress and afflict you? What if suddenly they were gone, lost in that true nature of joy that she describes? What if you were not capable of even thinking your favorite negative, fearful thoughts? Who would you be? How would you be? Would you not be liberated, fearless, your true, beautiful self? We have the power to come to live in the moment without the past. When all the negative stuff that we cling to so tenaciously is taken out, what is left? Only love and joy—that’s what’s underneath it all. We can begin fresh now, this very moment.”
― M. Catherine Thomas, The God Seed: Probing the Mystery of Spiritual Development
