Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson "Ralph Waldo Emerson"
Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.
On the divine path, there is no chance of failure; it is the path of love.
To have a body is to suffer. Those who understand this, detach themselves from all that exists and stop imagining or seeking anything. The sutras say, “To seek is to suffer. To seek nothing is bliss.” When you seek nothing, you’re on the Path.
As the heat of a fire reduces wood to ashes, the fire of knowledge burns to ashes all karma. Nothing in this world purifies like spiritual wisdom. It is the perfection achieved in time through the path of yoga, the path which leads to the Self within.
No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.
If you can find a path with no obstacles, it probably doesn’t lead anywhere.
-Frank A. Clark
When you travel towards your objective, be sure to pay attention to the path. The path teaches us the best way to arrive and enriches us while we are travelling along it.
All know the way; few actually walk it.
-Bodhidharma
The Eightfold Path: Right view, right aim, right speech, right action, right living, right effort, right mindfulness, right contemplation.
Man learns through experience, and the spiritual path is full of different kinds of experiences. He will encounter many difficulties and obstacles, and they are the very experiences he needs to encourage and complete the cleansing process.
