ESOTERIC QUOTES AND ART OF THE DAY - 01/10/2018

Here are todays quotes paired with art, because in this busy world, we rarely have time to reflect on the inner, the hidden, and the little known powerful aspects of our human condition.

"You don't have to burn books to destroy a culture. Just get people to stop reading them."

~ Ray Bradbury


“All the gods, all the heavens, all the hells, are within you.”

~ Joseph Campbell


"I believe in God, only I spell it Nature."

~ Frank Lloyd Wright


Q: I always had the impression that Lucifer and Satan was one and the same, you know, that Lucifer fell and became Satan. Would you clarify that for me?

A: There is a difference between Lucifer and Satan. The word satan comes from the word Shatan in Hebrew which means ‘adversary’. Lucifer is Latin for “the bearer of light,” and is the cosmic force that carries the fire. That fire is Kundalini, but when that fire becomes trapped in the ego, that fire is polarized negatively and becomes Satan, the adversary or the opposite of God. As long as that fire is trapped in desire, in ego, it is Satan, it is the devil. It is not outside of us. It is our mind. But when that force is liberated, it is the bearer of light. It is the greatest angel in the hierarchy of our own Consciousness. So it is our best friend.

~ The teachings of Samael Aun Weor


“Every person you look at,

you can see the universe in their eyes,

if you’re really looking.”

~ George Carlin


“Self-observation brings man to the realization of the necessity of self-change. And in observing himself a man notices that self-observation itself brings about certain changes in his inner processes. He begins to understand that self-observation is an instrument of self-change, a means of awakening.”

~ G.I. Gurdjieff


“The word ‘Amen’ is from Amon, the father god of Egypt, and was an ancient Egyptian salutation to the supreme power of the Universe."

~ Manly P. Hall
