Seekers Quotes - Page 8

• The path of the seeker is full of pitfalls and temptations, and the seeker must walk it alone with God. I would recommend that you keep your feet on the ground and your thoughts at lofty heights, so that you may attract only good. Concentrate on giving so that you may open yourself to receiving; concentrate on living according to the light you have so that you may open yourself to more light; get as much light as possible through the inner way.

• To accept Christ is to know the meaning of the words 'as he is, so are we in this world.' We accept his friends as our friends, his enemies as our enemies, his ways as our ways, his rejection as our rejection, his cross as our cross, his life as our life and his future as our future. If this is what we mean when we advise the seeker to accept Christ, we had better explain it to him. He may get into deep spiritual trouble unless we do.

• El ego no es ni positivo ni negativo. Esos son simplemente conceptos que crean más límites. El ego es sólo ego, y el desastre de todo esto es que tú, como buscador espiritual, has sido condicionado a pensar en el ego como algo malo, como un enemigo, como algo que debe ser destruido. Esto simplemente refuerza el ego. De hecho, tales conclusiones surgen del ego mismo. No les prestes atención. No entres en guerra contigo mismo; simplemente investiga quién eres.

• It puts people who are into this psychedelic thing in an entirely different stance from all other spiritual seekers, because all other spiritual seekers are furiously seeking. Psychedelic people are holding it back with all their power, because they are in the presence of the mystery. And then the trick is to get a spigot on it so that it can be turned on and off rather than coming at you like a tidal wave a mile high and twenty miles wide.

• There is a sense of urgency and this is a time for teachers and I think that there is this psychic awareness with this new generation of seekers that they are here to teach and so that they really need to wake up fast, much like we did, because we know that we must show up at a very high level and so therefore I think that there is an unconscious sense of urgency like I need to do this and not just for me, but for something greater and they may not be able to put that into words, but they are experiencing it.

• While big-business leaders and firms can be highly productive, servants of consumers in a free market economy, they are also all too often, seekers after subsidies, contracts, privileges, or cartels furnished by big government. Often, business lobbyists and leaders are the sparkplugs for the statist, interventionist system.

• When I see the mostly young people of Occupy Wall Street - a mixture of the bored, the nihilistic, the seekers of excitement, the left-wing true believers, the confused idealists and those hoping to engage in violence - railing against the rich capitalists on Wall Street, I get worried. Because the hatred they express toward the rich is similar to that expressed against the rich by Stalin, Mao and Pol Pot. Of course, these people are not comparable to those killers. But class hatred must lead to bad things. That is why President Obama is playing with fire with his attacks on the rich.

• "Los profesores... no tratan a los alumnos de forma coercitiva ni instrumental, sino como buscadores conjuntos de la verdad y de la actualización mutua. Ayudan a los alumnos a definir los valores morales no imponiéndoles sus propias moralidades, sino planteando situaciones que plantean difíciles opciones morales y fomentando después el conflicto y el debate. Pretenden ayudar a los alumnos a ascender a niveles superiores de razonamiento moral y, por tanto, a niveles superiores de juicio basado en principios.
