No one particular religion has been able to secure the exclusive rights for the power of prayer. No matter who you are, we all have the ability to take advantage of this amazing and wonderful power. Once you realize this, you will then be filled with the desire to help others realize this as well. More and more people are resonating with this understanding, and this could result in a more wonderful future for mankind. ~ Masaru Emoto

My spiritual teacher – a simple, straightforward woman who didn’t mince words – used to tell me, “You can’t shut other people’s mouths.” It took me years to understand that. This unlettered lady knew that we don’t have any control over other people’s minds. You can control only your own mind. When you understand this, you know you needn’t be concerned about what people say about you: it doesn’t affect you, because your mind cannot be upset. You may feel hurt, but you will have an inner security that cannot be shaken. ~ Eknath Easwaran

Loneliness, like fear, is a threshold emotion – you have to pass through it to enter the inner world. In fact, loneliness is the shadow side of solitude, the magical state that poets, mystics and yogis celebrate as the great laboratory for spiritual growth. ~ Sally Kempton
