Spiritual Journey Quotes

“Shapeshifting requires the ability to transcend your attachments, in particular your ego attachments to identity and who you are. If you can get over your attachment to labeling yourself and your cherishing of your identity, you can be virtually anybody. You can slip in and out of different shells, even different animal forms or deity forms.”
― Zeena Schreck

“The material world is all feminine. The feminine engergy makes the non-manifest, manifest. So even men (are of the feminine energy). We have to relinquish our ideas of gender in the conventional sense. This has nothing to do with gender, it has to do with energy. So feminine energy is what creates and allows anything which is non-manifest, like an idea, to come into form, into being, to be born. All that we experience in the world around us, absolutely everything (is feminine energy). The only way that anything exists is through the feminine force.”
― Zeena Schreck

― Merlin Franco, Saint Richard Parker

“There are Tantrics who deliberately seek to do more active forms of renunciation, so transgression of social norms and breaking of taboo, and breaking of social taboos especially, is a form of renunciation.”
― Zeena Schreck

― Raquel Cepeda, Bird of Paradise: How I Became Latina

“Planning Meetings might be the greatest art form ever, since what happens is nothing less than this: a soul shapes a new incarnation, then boldly commits. Quite the contrast to Life Reviews, when a soul comes out the other end.

Frankly this returning to heaven to learn about your recent incarnation… it’s like coming out the poop end of life… in contrast to the restaurant-like, lip-smacking deliciousness of a planning meeting. Around here we have this saying, “Planning Meetings for joy. Life Reviews for… compassion.”

Basically, watching a Life Review makes you want to hunker down with some celestial tissues, feeling sorry for the sad parts of the story, consoling yourself with knowledge of growth that took place anyway, and maybe wondering if you’ll ever risk leaving heaven again. By contrast, how do you feel after watching an inspiring Planning Meeting? You can’t wait to leave.”

“Let me tell you the meaning of the sacred and alluring garden that blooms in the heart of the desert and produces the food of life. The garden for which you are currently heading is nowhere and everywhere except in the camps. It is another name for the only place where you belong, Michaels, where you do not feel homeless. It is off every map, no road leads to it that is merely a road, and only you know the way.”
― J M Coetzee, Life And Times Of Michael K

“How hard is it to adjust to Earth life? Many incarnated adults only seem to be “grown up.” Inwardly they’re protesting humanity still; angels in human form who never manage to accept those harsh and dumbed-down vibrational frequencies, no matter how many years they breathe air and how strongly their human hearts beat.

Understandably so. Every “normal” adjustment to human life could be considered a triumph, especially in the waning years of the Age of Faith.

Even if nothing else were strange about human lifetimes in this era, growing into adulthood requires decades to learn how to run the body, gain a sense of self, manage money; then, depending upon the particulars of a Life Contract, additional challenges add to every lifetime intense potential for “education.”

“I know that the fact that I am always searching for God, always struggling to discover the fullness of Love, always yearning for the complete truth, tells me that I have already been given a taste of God, of Love and of Truth. I can only look for something that I have, to some degree, already found. How can I search for beauty and truth unless that beauty and truth are already known to me in the depth of my heart? It seems that all of us human beings have deep inner memories of the paradise that we have lost.”
― Henri J.M. Nouwen, Life of the Beloved: Spiritual Living in a Secular World

“In practice “talent” means whatever brings YOU joy; following joy will help YOU carry out your purpose for that lifetime.”

“Traveling further ingrained my desire to connect to a place other than an island that is slightly older, in a New World way, than the United States, especially after I found characteristics of my face in the faces of the people in my global community.”
― Raquel Cepeda, Bird of Paradise: How I Became Latina

“The Dominican Republic is my holy land, my Mecca.”
― Raquel Cepeda, Bird of Paradise: How I Became Latina

“We are not alone. Infinity in the sky, eternity on our shoulders, faith on the path and trust on our back. There is no turning back. Walk forward and stay true to your path.”
― Ulonda Faye, Sutras of the Heart: Spiritual Poetry to Nourish the Soul

“Change, grow, expand, love and open your heart. The trees love us, just as we are, and the earth carries us, no matter how far. Our hearts stay with us and love us, and never truly let us down. The only thing that matters is the love and acceptance that we have for ourselves.

How much do we laugh, love, sing with nature and embrace the gifts of those we love, while giving out blessings of our love?

Dress up, dress down, take it off, be the clown and know that you are beautiful, just as you are.

The wind, the sky and the sun love and support us no matter how we are.

Chase your dreams, follow the stars and go to mars. Whose life? Your life. You are living the dream. Your dream. Go on, it will take you far. Just keep going.”
― Ulonda Faye, Sutras of the Heart: Spiritual Poetry to Nourish the Soul

“It is sad to consider life’s impermanency.
To touch the world with one’s
special grace and to then leave it ...
behind.”

“Though ever-present as your helper and creator, God has made a sanctuary of free will where only you are in control. It’s your consciousness . However you choose to wake up that truth-seeking awareness within, God will support you. Hasn’t it happened so far?

What if you seek God by means of beliefs? God will illuminate the truth within those beliefs.

What if you ask God to live within your heart? No problem. It has always been so.

What if you resolve to honor your body as God’s temple? You can do it through athletics, yoga or dance; through health food or pleasure food, celibacy or sex. Whatever your choice, sooner or later, the result will be a stronger version of God’s presence coursing through your blood.

What if you pursue God through religion? Depending on the beliefs within your beliefs, God will participate just as you’ve requested.”

“Listen, go within. The heart knows the way. Take heed, look around, everywhere is love. Open to change and reveal your heart to the world. You shall be received.”
― Ulonda Faye, Sutras of the Heart: Spiritual Poetry to Nourish the Soul

“Yes, life can be challenging, with a few brilliant peaks, and many dark valleys. But that is why we are here. We are spiritual beings seeking human adventure. We certainly did not sign up to come into this world for a perpetual snooze-fest!”
― Anthon St. Maarten

“Quer saber? Eu comparo estes cento e cinquenta quilômetros à senda prometida por Deus às criaturas, que a percorreram antes de serem direcionadas ao paraíso ou ao inferno. Se alguém cair, vai para o inferno, e, se atravessar com segurança, chega ao paraíso. Quanto aos anjos… aqui seriam os guardas da fronteira.”
― Ghassan Kanafani, رجال في الشمس

“Eternity is not just simple promise of life after death. It gives us a vision beyond our earthly experience, essential for creating the best version of ourselves without time constraints. An infinite path of spiritual development, it offers us freedom to progress and draw closer to our Creator, freely, patiently, confidently, and without fear. This vision of eternity invites reflection on the continuity of our spiritual existence and our aspiration for deeper harmony.”
― Marie Chieze, Words of the Shaman: 50 Quotes from Paching Hoé Lambaiho

“The superior man, one who would follow the Iron Way, he must have struggle, he must have a goal, an impossible goal to fight for, and die for if needed. This is what he craves, not the green pasture of the cows.”
― Toby R. Beeny, The Iron Way: A Narrative of Crisis

“Bath me in the water of love,
Dye me with the color of love, Shroud my body in love,
Take me to my grave in love,
Bury me under the sand of love, Put a flower of love on my grave, My soul is flaming in the fire of love for beloved.”
― Aiyaz Uddin, The Inward Journey
