Remarkable Quotes

Meister Eckhart

The anxious student asked the Zen master how long to enlightenment. The
Zen Master answered a long time, at least 10 years. The student said,
"Well I will work twice as hard." The Zen master said, "Then it will
take 20 years." "No!" said the committed student, "I will work three
times as hard." "Well then," said the Zen master, "it will take 30
years."

Do you need to work at being spiritual? No. You already are spiritual.
Do you need to work at being human? No. That's just who you are.

The spiritual path doesn't require us to get anything. It's a process of
opening to new dimensions of who we already are. It's a process of
awakening to our own truth. It's a process of allowing ourselves to be
authentic.

"It is not by your actions that you will be saved, but by your being."

"Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice. It is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved."

William Jennings Bryan
