Some people want to see God with their eyes as they see a cow, and to love him as they love their cow...for the milk and cheese and profit it brings them. This is how it is with people who love God for the sake of outward wealth or inward comfort. -Meister Eckhart
There is nothing so lovely and enduring in the regions which surround us, above and below, as the lasting peace of a mind centered in God. -Yoga Vasishtha
Precious gems are profoundly buried in the earth and can only be extracted at the expense of great labor. -Anandamaya Ma
I believe in person to person. Every person is Christ for me, and since there is only one Jesus, that person is the one person in the world at that moment. -Mother Teresa of Calcutta
Reason is like an officer when the king appears. The officer then loses his power and hides himself. Reason is the shadow cast by God; God is the sun. -Jalaluddin Rumi
