Stille i deg selv

"Når det blir mer stille i deg selv, så øker persepsjonen og konsentrasjonen. Da blir idealene og forhåpningene istedet automatisk tatt vare på, det som du først legger i en kjempefremtid. Da står du aldri i det forholdet at "jeg når aldri målet, men ville så gjerne". Da står du bare i forholdet du har til deg selv — gjennom en naturlig rensning og fordyping."

Vigdis Garbarek

Song Of Enlightenment

You cannot grasp it;
you cannot get rid of it.
In not being able to get it, you get it.
When you are silent, it speaks;
when you speak, it is silent.

From Song Of Enlightenment by Zen Master Yung-chia.

Theologia Mystica

Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh (Osho) says of these letters by Dionysius, first bishop of Athens, to his disciple Timothy: "His whole book is written with a disguise, as if it is a treatise on theology; mysticism is just somewhere by the side, secondary, not primary. Hence the name Theologica Mystica - as if mysticism is only a consequence of getting deep into the world of theology. Just the reverse is the case."

"... the truly mystical darkness of unknowing," that's what Theologia Mystica is all about. Dionysius calls it Agnosia.

St. Theresa's Prayer

St. Theresa's Prayer

'May today there be peace within. May you trust that you
are exactly where you are meant to be. May you not
forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith
in yourself and others. May you use the gifts that you
have received, and pass on the love that has been given
to you. May you be content with yourself just the way
you are. Let this knowledge settle into your bones, and
allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and
love. It is there for each and every one of us.'

Depth and Silence

"In developed gnostic systems, at the beginning was the incomprehensible, invisible, eternal, and ungenerated Forefather, Depth; Depth gave rise to a female counterpart, Silence. Together they produced the next pair of Aeons, which eventuate in fourteen such pairs, each pair with lesser power and memory of its origin that the previous pair. At the lowest level is Wisdom and the creator God. Salvation consists in reascending the ladder of divine emanations and rejoining the godhead."

Robert W. Funk, Roy W. Hoover, and the Jesus Seminar, The Five Gospels
