It may be impossible to describe God in words, but a writer is not burdened by what’s possible.
I am a lover of poetry, literature, and performance. I am a collector and curator of words. Following is a short list of my all time favorite quotes. Enjoy!
10. Work in the invisible world at least as hard as you do in the visible. ~Rumi
9. God’s art is mine. I did not want his divine talent, it simply grew in my heart from the way I loved. ~ Hafiz
8. The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion. ~ Albert Camus
7. Put away your pointless taboos and restrictions on sexual energy – rather help others to truly understand its wonder, and to channel it properly. ~ God, channeled by Neale Donald Walsh
6. I reserve the right to love many different people at once, and to change my prince often. ~ Anaïs Nin
5. A slut shares her sexuality the way a philanthropist shares his money — because they have a lot to share, because it makes them happy to share it, because sharing makes the world a better place.~ Dossie Easton & Janet Hardy
4. Straight away, remove yourself from the field of spiritual progression , stay away from contemplation and skillful discourse, do not do research or meditate on the divinities, and stop concentrating and reciting textbooks! Tell me, what is the absolute nature of reality which allows no room for doubt? Listen carefully! Stop holding on to this or that, inhabit your true absolute nature, and peacefully enjoy the essence of what it is to be alive!”
~Abhinavagupta
The next Buddha will not take the form of an individual. The next Buddha will take the form of a community; a community practicing understanding and loving kindness, a community practicing mindful living. This may be the most important thing we can do for the survival of the Earth.
—Thich Nhat Hanh
2. I looked in temples, churches, & mosques. But I found the Divine within my heart. ~ Rumi
2. Art is not about thinking something up. It is the opposite — getting something down. ~ Julia Cameron, Artists Way
1. I live in my dreams — that’s what you sense. Other people live in dreams, but not in their own. That’s the difference. ~ Hermann Hesse
