Sunday Dinner: Spirit Swans

“We are not human beings having a spiritual experience.

We are spiritual beings having a human experience.”

“One thing: you have to walk,

and create the way by your walking;

you will not find a ready-made path.

It is not so cheap, to reach to the ultimate realization of truth.

You will have to create the path by walking yourself;

the path is not ready-made, lying there and waiting for you.

It is just like the sky: the birds fly,

but they don’t leave any footprints.

You cannot follow them;

there are no footprints left behind.”

“I once listened to an Indian on television

say that God was in the wind and the water,

and I wondered at how beautiful that was

because it meant

you could swim in Him

or have Him brush your face in a breeze.”

“We are all connected;

To each other, biologically.

To the earth, chemically.

To the rest of the universe atomically.”

“The power of human thought grows exponentially

with the number of minds that share that thought.”
