Impurity Quotes - Page 4

• God sees the minds (ruling principles) of all men bared of the material vesture and rind and impurities. For with his intellectual part alone he touches the intelligence only which has flowed and been derived from himself into these bodies. And if thou also usest thyself to do this, thou wilt rid thyself of thy much trouble. For he who regards not the poor flesh which envelops him, surely will not trouble himself by looking after raiment and dwelling and fame and such like externals and show.

• The price the Virgin demanded was purity, and the way the educators of Catholic children have interpreted this for nearly two thousand years is sexual chastity. Impurity, we were taught, follows from many sins, but all are secondary to the principal impulse of the devil in the soul--lust.

• It's survival of the fittest. You can't have everything perfect, that's impossible, but the fit survive. The fit can handle the impurities in the air and in the water, but the poor people who are sick, it really affects them more.

• Muchos hombres se sienten intimidados por una mujer atractiva y la deshumanizan porque nuestra cultura percibe a las mujeres guapas como mercancías. Pero creo que si eres capaz de acercarte a una persona y conocerla, y ves sus defectos y sus impurezas, y te das cuenta de que es como tú, entonces puedes humanizarla de nuevo.

• The thing that is most beautiful about Antarctica for me is the light. It's like no other light on Earth, because the air is so free of impurities. You get drugged by it, like when you listen to one of your favorite songs. The light there is a mood-enhancing substance.

• It is believed by experienced doctors that the heat which oozes out of the hand, on being applied to the sick, is highly salutary. It has often appeared, while I have been soothing my patients, as if there was a singular property in my hands to pull and draw away from the affected parts aches and diverse impurities, by laying my hand upon the place, and extending my fingers toward it. Thus it is known to some of the learned that health may be implanted in the sick by certain gestures, and by contact, as some diseases may be communicated from one to another.

• Cualquier prueba que se base en lo que es ofensivo para las normas de la comunidad es demasiado laxa, demasiado caprichosa, demasiado destructiva de la libertad de expresión para ser compatible con la Primera Enmienda. Según esa prueba, los jurados pueden censurar, suprimir y castigar lo que no les guste, siempre que el asunto esté relacionado con la "impureza sexual" o tenga tendencia a "excitar pensamientos lujuriosos". Esto es censura comunitaria en una de sus peores formas. Crea un régimen en el que, en la batalla entre los literatos y los filisteos, los filisteos están seguros de ganar.

• Just as God's love entered the world, thereby submitting to the misunderstanding and ambiguity that characterize everything worldly, so also Christian love does not exist anywhere but in the worldly, in an infinite variety of concrete worldly action, and subject to misunderstanding and condemnation. Every attempt to portray a Christianity of 'pure' love purged of worldly 'impurities' is a false purism and perfectionism that scorns God's becoming human and falls prey to the fate of all ideologies. God was not too pure to enter the world.

• Psychoanalysis is a technique we practice at our cost; psychoanalysis degrades our risks, our dangers, our depths; it strips us of our impurities, of all that made us curious about ourselves.

• Meditation will do you a disservice. It will confuse you more than clarify you. It will bring tremendous impurity in you - if you are allowing your mind to wander during the empowered experience.

• If your breath is very deep in the lungs, it will give you a good red blood. Good red blood, with the oxygen, is quite sufficiently empowered to take away impurities. When the lungs start clearing the blood, then the liver, spleen, and kidneys have much less work to do.

• From the viewpoint of absolute truth, what we feel and experience in our ordinary daily life is all delusion. Of all the various delusions, the sense of discrimination between oneself and others is the worst form, as it creates nothing but unpleasantness for both sides. If we can realize and meditate on ultimate truth, it will cleanse our impurities of mind and thus eradicate the sense of discrimination. This will help to create true love for one another. The search for ultimate truth is, therefore, vitally important.

• As soon as you willfully allow a dialogue with temptation to begin, the soul is robbed of peace, just as consent to impurity destroys grace.

• In temptations against chastity, the spiritual masters advise us, not so much to contend with the bad thought, as to turn the mind to some spiritual, or, at least, indifferent object. It is useful to combat other bad thoughts face to face, but not thoughts of impurity.

• Impurities are constantly and imperceptibly passing from the body, through the pores, and if the surface of the skin is not kept in a healthy condition, the system is burdened with impure matter....and if the garments worn are not frequently cleansed...the pores of the skin absorb again the waste matter thrown off. The impurities of the body... are taken back into the blood, and forced upon the internal organs.

  Ellen G. White

• El que puede conocer y considerar el vicio con todos sus cebos y placeres aparentes, y sin embargo abstenerse, y sin embargo distinguir, y sin embargo preferir lo que es verdaderamente mejor, él es el verdadero cristiano caminante. No puedo alabar a una virtud fugitiva y enclaustrada, sin ejercicio y sin aliento, que nunca sale y ve a su adversario, sino que se escabulle de la carrera, donde esa guirnalda inmortal se ha de correr, no sin polvo y calor. Ciertamente no traemos inocencia al mundo, sino más bien impureza: lo que nos purifica es la prueba, y la prueba es por lo contrario.

  John Milton
