Quotes about Universe

A human being is a part of the whole called by us "universe," a part limited in time and space.  He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness.  This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us.  Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to enhance all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.

Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and life to everything.

We live in a world of color.  All nature is color: white, black, and grey do not exist except in theory; they are never seen by the eye - they could only exist in a world that was colorless.  Such a universe is beyond imagination: a world without color would be a world without light, for light and color are inseparable.

You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.  And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

Within our whole universe the story only has the authority to answer that cry of heart of its characters, that one cry of heart of each of them: "Who am I?"

So that we can truly admire this wonderful painting we will have to know ourselves first of all, to accept our limits and understand that if we really want to have access to this wonderful painting of the existence of the world of the Logical Coefficient 2 we will have to look inside ourselves, to see first of all the unlimited Universe, to recognise the infinite from which we were conceived and that lies in each of us in order to be granted access to the infinite outside us.

The world is warfare between Man and God. God has made Man His absolute and eternal slave to quench His ultimate vanity, and Man has waged a war on God to seek a quick and complete freedom from the ultimate slavery. The war will never be won, nor will it ever be lost.

Man is a product of evolution in a virtual sense and a product of divine creation in the real sense. Man is real and God is real, but evolution is unreal; it never happened. The world is constructed such that it gives a mere impression as if things like evolution and Big Bang really took place. Evolution and Big Bang are as unreal as space and as virtual as a movie. Man is the spectator and God - the ultimate questioner - is the producer of the movie called universe.

The existence of God is not logically necessary, and yet, on the basis of some profound peculiar empirical order in the universe, it seems that He exists as the ultimate uncreated Being, implying a paradox, as no logically unnecessary entity can be uncreated. This paradox is the ultimate question asked by God, who is nothing but the ultimate questioner.

To trust in the force
that moves the universe is faith
Faith isn't blind, it's visionary.
Faith is believing that the universe
is on our side, and that the universe
knows what it's doing.

Quote

Re-examine all you have been told in school or church or in any book,
and dismiss whatever insults your own soul... 
It is also not consistent with the reality of the soul to admit that there is anything
in the known universe more divine than men and women.
The master knows that he is unspeakably great and that all are unspeakably great. 
There will soon be no more priests... They may wait awhile, perhaps a generation or two,
dropping off by degrees. A superior breed shall take their place.
A new order shall arise and they shall be the priests of man,
and every man shall be his own priest.

Universe or this world is a dream , To know the real TRUTH(GOD) one has to wake up from this or  let realisation go beyond the existance of anything. Same as we can say i had dream only when wake up or get out of dream. Knowing the TRUTH  is the realisation  of  GOD . TRUTH and true has 2 different meaning.

"The greatest attribute of God is Love. The Tree of Life is located in the very depth of our soul. The most perfect and abundant fruit that grows and ripens is Life giving Love; it is the great healing force in the world. Love never fails to meet every demand of the human heart. The Divine principal of Love may be used to eliminate every sorrow, infirmity, in-harmony, ignorance and all mistakes of mankind. Love is God; eternal, limitless, changeless, infinite. It is the pulse of the world, the heartbeat of the Universe."

Only when a man's interior warriors are strong enough can he go into the joy of display.

With this strength he can also enter into the delight of form. Shapeless clothing, verse that is sloppy, chaotic furnishings: all are linked in secret ways to shame. The universe is not ashamed, and it delights in form. The sun rising over the ocean and setting in the ocean, the moon's lonely shinings and hidings, the leaves unfolding and falling are its displays.

Poetry is a form of display. The poet bird repeats vowels and consonants in order to widen his tail. Meter and counted syllables make up a peacock tail. The poem is a dance done for some being in the other world.

Know the difference between Pretending and Pre-tending.  
Pretending about something desired may be pleasant, yet Pretending is relatively powerless. 
In contrast, Pre-tending is to "Pre-take care of", to actively embrace the perception, risk, effort and work of something desired before it happens.  Also, in contrast to Pretending, Pre-tending attracts into motion the infinite resources of  the Universe.  I like the example of Pre-tending a beautiful rose --as in watering and caring for a rose bush long before a rose is visible.  Are you Pretending or Pre-tending your goals and dreams?"

You posses the ability to tap a bottomless well of physical and psychic energy (called "chi" in Chinese).   With it, you can harness the magickal power of the universe.  Yet most of us unknowingly block the flow of this power, and live out our lives not reaching the potential that we could achieve if we only knew how.
