Willie HerronHeaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods. It would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as Freedom should not be highly rated.

John SteinbeckAs artists, we belong to an ancient and holy tribe. We are the carriers of the truth that spirit moves through us all.

Joseph AlleineLucifer protests he was never to blame for inducing anyone to sin, and that heโs never had an interest in owning souls: 'They die, and they come here โ having transgressed against what they believed to be right โ and expect us to fulfill their desire for pain and retribution. I donโt make them come hereโฆ I need no souls. And how can anyone own a soul? No, they belong to themselves. They just hate to have to face up to it.

Gene WeingartenThus to act under the guidance coming from above, this is one side of the sadhana, the dynamic side. The other one is the discrimination between the Purusha and the Prakriti. The Purusha will calmly observe, give sanction, choose, but will realise that all this does not belong to him - all these are outside him. This is the static side of the sadhana. These two aspects constitute the basis of Yoga.
