Immanence and Transcendence

The heart is a sanctuary at the center of which there is a little space, wherein the Great Spirit dwells, and this is the Eye.

In order to know the center of the heart where the Great Spirit dwells you must be pure and good, and live in the manner that the Great Spirit has taught us.

I have always seen this light [the cloud of the living light]—Sometimes I behold within this light another light [the living light itself]. And when I look upon it, every sadness and pain vanishes from my memory…

You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.

A human being is part of the whole, called by us ‘universe,’ a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separate from the rest—a kind of optical delusion of consciousness.

Do you not know that you are God’s temple and that God’s spirit dwells in you?

When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy.

At the center of our being is a point of nothingness which is untouched by sin and by illusion, a point of pure truth, a point or spark which belongs entirely to God…

Though God be everywhere present, yet He is only present to thee in the deepest and most central part of thy soul…

The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you. Don’t go back to sleep. You must ask for what you really want. Don’t go back to sleep…

The shining Self dwells hidden in the heart. Everything in the cosmos, great and small, lives in the Self.
