gptkbp:notable_quote |
" There is a common thread that runs through all spiritual traditions."
" Spirituality is not about religion, but about the experience of the divine." " The ultimate goal of life is to realize our true nature." " The truth is one, but the sages speak of it in many ways." " The Perennial Philosophy is the essence of all religions." “ The truth is that the world is a great illusion.” “ The Perennial Philosophy is the metaphysic that recognizes a divine reality substantial to the world of things and lives.” |
