"He is the greatest hypocrite, who, himself being one, asks others not to be hypocritical."

"He who harms nothing is a good man, he who is harmed by nothing is a God-Man"

"To ask for a purely intellectual proof of the existence of God is like asking for the privilege of being able to see with your ears!"

"How can a finite mind realize an infinite reality without its own annhilation?"

"The infinite truth latent in everything reveals itself only when life is accepted in its totality."

"There is the eternal Now from the beginningless beginning to the endless end. There is one moment only—the ETERNAL NOW. He who experiences the ETERNAL NOW finds all doubts, wounds, everything dissolved like mist, and remains in eternal bliss."

"Being is Dying by Loving."

"The ONE is one complete whole and simultaneously a series of ones within the ONE. Illusion is a ZERO and simultaneously a series of zeros within the ZERO. These zeros have no value, except a false value according to their position in relation to the ONE. In actual fact the zeros have no existence - their existence is mere appearance in Illusion, the big ZERO."
1 000 000 - the zeros only have value because of the 1.

"Live more and more in the Present which is ever beautiful and stretches away beyond the limits of the past and the future."

Quote:

an image in place of an image; then you will enter the Kingdom.



I see it as not having an ego and never entertaining the idea of yourself and just be yourself &then you will become your true self. The real self must take the place of the false self-asserted self. Being occurs before the perception of it's own being(which is the mind) so "reside in the self".

Quote:

True religion consists in developing the attitude of mind which should ultimately result in seeing One Infinite Existence prevailing in the universe; when one could live in the world and yet be not of it, and at the same time be in harmony with everyone and everything; when one could see the same divinity in art and science and experience the highest consciousness and indivisible bliss in everyday life.

"The way to peace and fulfillment in union with God, the divine Beloved, is a daring dive into the "eternal now." Not by fruitless surveys of the past, nor by elusive longings for the future, nor by enslavement to the fleeting moment, but by staking everything for God, is it possible for you to experience yourself as the illimitable ocean of love. Here and nowhere else is the final solution of all your problems. Love born in the Truth liberates without binding and fulfills without overpowering; it is a pure blessing not only for yourself, but for each and all, for ever and ever, in the "eternal now." Meher Baba

The Universe

What if someone said to an embryo in the womb,
“Outside of your world of black nothing
is a miraculously ordered universe;
a vast Earth covered with tasty food;
mountains, oceans and plains,
fragrant orchards and fields full of crops;
a luminous sky beyond your reach,
with a sun, moonbeams, and uncountable stars;
and there are winds from south, north and west,
and gardens replete with sweet flowers
like a banquet at a wedding feast.

The wonders of this world are beyond description.
What are you doing living in a dark prison,
Drinking blood through that narrow tube?”
But the womb- world is all an embryo knows
And it would not be particularly impressed
By such amazing tales, saying dismissively:
“You’re crazy. That is all a deluded fantasy.”

One day you will look back and laugh at yourself.
You’ll say, “ I can’t believe I was so asleep!
How did I ever forget the truth?
How ridiculous to believe that sadness and sickness
Are anything other than bad dreams.”

-Rumi

I have never seen that one thanks.

Here is another from Meher Baba

"Infinite consciousness can never lessen at any point in time or space. Infinite consciousness includes every aspect of consciousness. Unconsciousness is one of the aspects of infinite consciousness. Thus infinite consciousness includes unconsciousness. It sustains, covers, pierces through, and provides an end to, unconsciousness — which flows from and is consumed by infinite consciousness.

In order to assert infinite consciousness unequivocally I declare that I have infinite consciousness; and I can do this most emphatically because I am infinite consciousness. I am everything and I am beyond, beyond everything. I am ever conscious that I am in you, while you are never conscious that I am in you. Daily I support you and share your consciousness. Now I want you to uphold me and share my consciousness one day.

Man being unconscious of actually possessing the never-ending continually conscious experience that God is everything and all else is nothing, for him everything is everything: Air is. Water is. Fire is. Earth is. Light is. Darkness is. Stone is. Iron is. Vegetation is. Insect is. Fish is. Bird is. Beast is. Man is. Good is. Bad is. Pain is. Pleasure is — and thus there is no end to what all else is, until he arrives at "nothing is" and instantaneously he realizes "God Is..."

P. D. Ouspensky a Russian mystic philosopher:

"It is only when we realize that life is taking us nowhere that it begins to have meaning."

"Two things can get people to make efforts: if people want to get something, or if they want to get rid of something. Only, in ordinary conditions, without knowledge, people do not know what they can get rid of or what they can gain."

"here exist moments in life, separated by long intervals of time, but linked together by their inner content and by a certain singular sensation peculiar to them."

"The problem of Eternity, of which the face of the Sphinx speaks, takes us into the realm of the impossible. Even the problem of Time is simple in comparison with the problem of Eternity."

"The greatest barrier to consciousness is the belief that one is already conscious."

"People who think they can control their negative emotions and manifest them when they want to, simply deceive themselves. Negative emotions depend on identification; if identification is destroyed in some particular case, they disappear. The strangest and most fantastic fact about negative emotions is that people actually worship them. "

Quote:

There is one real birth and one real death. You are born once and you die only once. What is the real birth? It is the advent of individuality through a glimmer of the first most finite consciousness, which transfixed cognizance of limitation into the unlimited. What is the real death? It is consciousness getting free from all limitations, it is liberation. . . Therefore I say, die for God and you will live as God.

""Now men are planning to go to the Moon. And the first to get there will plant his nation's flag on it, and that nation will declare: 'It is mine.' But another nation will dispute the claim, and they will fight here on this Earth for possession of that Moon. And whoever goes there, what will he find? Nothing but himself. And if people go on to Venus, they will still find nothing but themselves. Whether men soar to outer space or dive to the bottom of the deepest ocean, they will find themselves as they are, unchanged, because they will not have forgotten themselves nor remembered to exercise the charity of forgiveness." (Meherazad, 31 August 1962)
Meher Baba

& What will he find? Nothing but himself.

Quotes from Great Physicists!


"I am a scientist: I trace the lines that come from God."
(Einstein, letter to Gandhi)

"The cosmic religious experience is the strongest and the noblest driving force behind scientific research." (Einstein)

"The most beautiful system of the sun, planets and comets, could only proceed from the counsel and dominion of an intelligent and powerful Being." (Isaac Newton)

"All matter originates and exists only by virtue of a force... We must assume behind this force the existence of a conscious and intelligent Mind. This Mind is the matrix of all matter." (Max Planck)

"God forever does geometry." (Plato, according to Plutarch).

"Nature's great book is written in mathematical language". (Gallileo)

"Modern physics has definitely decided for Plato. For the smallest units of matter are not physical objects in the ordinary sense of the word; they are forms, or in Plato's sense, Ideas, which can be unambiguously spoken of only in the language of mathematics." (Werner Heisenberg)

"The Great Architect of the Universe now begins to appear as a pure mathematician... The universe begins to look more like a great thought than a great machine." (Sir James Jeans, early founder of Quantum Theory)

".... a world created out of pure intelligence." (Sir James Jeans)

"All through the physical world runs that unknown content which must surely be the stuff of our consciousness.... The stuff of the world is mind-stuff." ( (Sir Arthur Eddington, early founders of Quantum Theory and president of the Royal Academy of Science - and a Quaker)

I assert that the nature of all reality is spiritual, not material nor a dualism of matter and spirit... I contemplate a spiritual domain underlying the physical world." (Arthur Eddington)

"The next revolution in physics will occur when the properties of mind will be included in the equations of quantum theory." (Eugene Wigner)

“For those of us who believe in physics, this separation between past, present and future is only an illusion.” (Einstein)


"The universe does not exist out there, independent of us. We are inescapably involved in bringing about that which appears to be happening. We are not only observers. We are participators. In some strange sense, this is a participatory universe." (John Wheeler)

"There is nothing in the world except empty curved space. Matter, charge, electromagnetism, and other fields are only manifestations of the curvature of space." (John Wheeler)

"Behind it all is surely an idea so simple, so beautiful, that when we grasp it we will all say to each other, how could it have been otherwise? How could we have been so stupid?"(John Wheeler)

"If you haven't found something strange during the day, it hasn't been much of a day." (John Wheeler)

John Wheeler, who died in 1995, was one of the 20th Century's most important teachers of physics, at Princeton and the University of Texas.

"The cosmos is also within us. We are made of stars. We are a way for the cosmos to know itself." (Carl Sagan)

"If you want to make an apple pie, you first have to create the universe." (Carl Sagan)


"The vacuum of physics contains in its faculties everything that the laws of nature will permit. It fluctuates - the virtual particles come and go. The only thing they are missing is the energy it would take to make them appear as real particles. All that can appear in reality must be present as a possibility - as a state of virtual particles - in the vacuum. Add energy to the vacuum and those virtual states may appear as particles." (Henning Genz) *

"The physical vacuum... carries within itself the possibilities of everything that can exist in the physical world. Once we attain true knowledge of the vacuum, we will have a comprehensive knowledge of everything, including the laws of nature. It is as in the thinking of the ancient philosophers. The knowledge of the void, the "nothing," is intimately connected with the knowledge of the "something."... We take it as a matter of course that empty space is not really empty." (Henning Genz) *

I think people should just stop crediting quotes altogether. (novel speeches and paragraphs aside)  This one especially as it says, Meher wouldn't be the only contributor to the quote; the universe would be.






I agree from a certain perspective but not overall.
