The kind of spirituality I value
is one in which you get great joy
out of contributing to life, not
just sitting and meditating,
although meditation is certainly
valuable. But from the meditation,
from the resulting consciousness,
I would like to see people in
action creating the world that they
want to live in.
~ Marshall Rosenberg
The fact that I can plant a seed and it becomes a flower, share a bit of knowledge and it becomes another’s, smile at someone and receive a smile in return, are to me continual spiritual exercises.
~ Leo Buscaglia
Mindfulness is both
a state of being and
a daily spiritual practice,
a form of meditation.
~ David Richo
What drains your spirit drains your body. What fuels your spirit fuels your body.
― Caroline Myss, Anatomy of the Spirit
What can we gain by sailing to the moon if we are not able to cross the abyss that separates us from ourselves? This is the most important of all voyages of discovery, and without it, all the rest are not only useless, but disastrous.
~ Thomas Merton
Many men go fishing
all of their lives without
knowing that it is not fish
that they are after.
– Henry David Thoreau
