God
-George Armelagos "Peter Farb and George Armelagos"
Everyone has in him something divine, something his own, a chance of perfection and strength in however small a sphere which God offers him to take or refuse. The task is to find it, develop it and use it.
-Sri Aurobindo "Sri Aurobindo"
Perfection is the exclusive attribute of God, and it is indescribable, untranslatable. I do believe that it is possible for human beings to become perfect, even as God is perfect. It is necessary for all of us to aspire after that perfection but when that blessed state is attained, it becomes indescribable, indefinable.
-Mahatma Gandhi "Mahatma Gandhi"
I want to know all God’s thoughts; all the rest are just details.
-Albert Einstein
What do you think of God, the teacher asked. After a pause, the young pupil replied, He's not a think, he's a feel.
-Paul Frost
Set your faces towards unity, and let the radiance of its light shine upon you. Gather ye together, and for the sake of God resolve to root out whatever is the source of contention among you. Then will the effulgence of the world’s great Luminary envelop the whole earth, and its inhabitants become citizens of one city, and the occupants of one and the same throne.
-Baha’u’llah "Baha’u’llah 111"
Honour your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land which the Lord your God gives you.
-Bible "Exodus 20.12"
God first created light, all men are born out of it. The whole world came out of a single spark; who is good and who is bad? The Creator is in the creation, and the creation in the Creator, He is everywhere…He who surrenders to Him gets to know Him. God is invisible, He cannot be seen. The Guru has granted me this sweet gift. My doubts are dispelled. I have seen the Pure with my own eyes.
-A Spiritual Leader "Guru Hargobind Singh"
I know God will not give me anything I can't handle. I just wish that He didn't trust me so much.
-Mother Teresa
God allows us to experience the low points of life in order to teach us lessons that we could learn in no other way.
-C. S. Lewis
