“I used to pray that God would feed the hungry, or do this or that, but now I pray that he will guide me to do whatever I'm supposed to do, what I can do. I used to pray for answers, but now I'm praying for strength. I used to believe that prayer changes things, but now I know that prayer changes us and we change things.”

“Maybe secrets were part of life; maybe everyone had something they were lying to themselves about, or something they were hiding.
I looked up at the cross again and wondered if I was supposed to hear this particular sermon at this particular moment for a reason. I decided that the people who had said God didn’t love me, who said I didn’t have a place on Earth—they were wrong. God wanted me to live, and this was the only way I knew how to survive, so this was what God wanted. This was what I wanted. I had chosen to live, and it seemed like, finally, I was doing just that.”
― If I Was Your Girl

“A small puddle will reflect the moon in its own way and the big ocean will reflect it in its own way. Then there is great controversy. Hindus say something, Mohammedans say something else, Christians say something else again – and so on, so forth. The controversy is foolish. The conflict is meaningless. God is reflected in millions of ways, in millions of mirrors. Each mirror reflects in its own way. This is one of the fundamentals to be understood. Not understanding this fundamental there is naturally antagonism between religions, because they all think, “If our standpoint is right then the other has to be wrong.” Their rightness depends on the other’s wrongness. This is stupid. God is infinite, and you can look at him through many ways, through many windows. And naturally you can look at him only through yourself – you will be the window. Your God will reflect God as much as it will reflect you; you will both be there.”

“The sum total of all realities - perceived, conceived, observed or unobservable - all of them, in all forms, is but One Indivisible Totality. This "One" stays so in eternity, as infinity. It runs everything yet does not become anything. It is timeless, limitless, endless and beginningless. All comes from and goes unto it. Call "it" the Universal or Cosmic Self; or God. There is nothing else. Go search by yourself.”

“There is no ism "up there". Yours or mine. Also, there is no messiah, neither yours nor mine, up There. Neither is any human-like nor spirit-in-form god "there". Just a foreverness of one whole of totality is "out there". And whatever is There, is also the Reality "here". Oh, lest you make-up some other mumbo-jumbo, no "here" or "there" is. All a "One" is. Bow to "it". Less than this is not the Absolute. Is untruth.”

“Those who somehow get the oneness of all that is, live and die rich. They learn to love everybody and respect every thing. Even the no-nothing. Everybody else, poor or rich, lives and dies unchanged, unevolved, unresolved - akin the ever bent tail of a bitch. Oddly ill at ease. Or full of themselves; you know, bull's it. They go out with an ever nagging itch. Never getting the divine unity of everything, of That Which Is.”
