"To those who expect the Teacher to be a man, a man will bring the message; to those who expect the Teacher to be a woman, a woman must deliver it. To those call on Allah, Allah comes. To those who knock at the door of Sheitan, Sheitan answers. There is a answer to every call. To a Sufi the Teacher is never absent, whether he comes in one form or a thousand forms, he is always one to him, and the same One he recognizes to be in all, and all Teachers he sees in his one Teachers alone. For a Sufi, the self within, the self without, the kingdom of the earth, the kingdom of heaven, the whole being is his Teacher, and his every moment is engaged in acquiring knowledge. For some the Teacher has already come and gone, for others the Teacher may still come, but for a Sufi the Teacher has always been and will remain with him forever." - The Way Of Illumination (The Sufi). ~Hazrat Inayat Khan

"The past is an interpretation. The future is on illusion. The world does not move through time as if it were a straight line, proceeding from the past to the future. Instead time moves through and within us, in endless spirals. Eternity does not mean infinite time, but simply timelessness. If you want to experience eternal illumination, put the past and the future out of your mind and remain within the present moment."

If history teaches us anything, it is simply this: Every revolution carries within it the seeds of its own destruction, and empires that rise will someday fall - frank herbert

"Men make their own history, but they do not make it as they please; they do not make it under self-selected circumstances, but under circumstances existing already, given and transmitted from the past. The tradition of all dead generations weighs like a nightmare on the brains of the living." - Marx

If you are serious about growth, be serious about accountability. If you are serious about abundance, be serious about gratitude. If you are serious about intimacy, be serious about vulnerability.
