God Quotes

Everything is God. See God in all creation.

Sri Swami Satchidananda
17

God is always trying to give good things to us, but our hands are too full to receive them.

Saint Augustine
17

They deceive themselves who believe that union with God consists in ecstasies or raptures, and in the enjoyment of Him. For it consists in nothing except the surrender and subjection of our will - with our thoughts, words and actions - to the will of God.

Teresa of Ávila
17

God willeth that we endlessly hate the sin and endlessly love the soul, as God loveth it.

Julian of Norwich
17

My, how busy we become when we lose sight of how God loves us.

Julian of Norwich
17

The gods too are fond of a joke.

Aristotle
17

I have a capacity in my soul for taking in God entirely. I am as sure as I live that nothing is so near to me as God.

Meister Eckhart
17

Everything has being through the love of God.

Julian of Norwich
17

Don't fear god, Don't worry about death; What is good is easy to get, and What is terrible is easy to endure.

Epicurus
17

Let God operate in thee; Hand the work over to Him and do not disquiet thyself as to whether or no He is working with nature or above nature, for His are both nature and grace.

Meister Eckhart
17

The seed of God is in us. If the seed had a good, wise and industrious cultivator, it would thrive all the more and grow up to God whose seed it is, and the fruit would be equal to the nature of God. Now the seed of a pear tree grows into a pear tree, a hazel seed into a hazel tree, and the seed of God into God.

Meister Eckhart
17

Jesus Christ knew he was God. So wake up and find out eventually who you really are. In our culture, of course, they’ll say you’re crazy and you’re blasphemous, and they’ll either put you in jail or in a nut house (which is pretty much the same thing). However if you wake up in India and tell your friends and relations, ‘My goodness, I’ve just discovered that I’m God,’ they’ll laugh and say, ‘Oh, congratulations, at last you found out.

Alan Watts
17

Remember from this very moment: always choose that which is good for you and good for others. Choose creativity. Become a blessing to existence, because that is the only way that we can persuade God to become a blessing to us. That's the only true prayer: becoming a blessing to everyone - to people, to animals, to trees, to life in all its forms. If one remains consciously alert, slowly slowly the art is learned; slowly slowly it becomes just natural.

Osho (Rajneesh)
17

How will you get God's grace? When you discipline yourself. How will you know how to discipline? By observing others that had walked the path successfully to the goal of perfection. Who are these men who had walked to the goal? It is these that are known as Gurus. So you need their help, their personal example, their encouragement and their grace. Thus, we have come round to the answer that a Guru is necessary as well as his grace. Everything is necessary-- Atma Kripa, Guru Kripa and Isvara Kripa.

Sivananda Saraswati
17

And just as He appeared before the holy Apostles in true flesh, so now He has us see Him in the Sacred Bread. Looking at Him with the eyes of their flesh, they saw only His Flesh, but regarding Him with the eyes of the spirit, they believed that He was God. In like manner, as we see bread and wine with our bodily eyes, let us see and believe firmly that it is His Most Holy Body and Blood, True and Living. For in this way our Lord is ever present among those who believe in him, according to what He said: "Behold, I am with you all days even to the consummation of the world."

Francis of Assisi
17

The aggressive and quite illogical idea of a single religion for all mankind, a religion universal by the very force of its narrowness, one set of dogmas, one cult, one system of ceremonies, one ecclesiastical ordinance, one array of prohibitions and injunctions which all minds must accept on peril of persecution by men and spiritual rejection or eternal punishment by God, that grotesque creation of human unreason which has been the parent of so much intolerance, cruelty and obscurantism and aggressive fanaticism, has never been able to take firm hold of the Indian mentality.

Sri Aurobindo
17

....In this world I cannot see the Most High Son of God with my own eyes, except for His Most Holy Body and Blood.

Francis of Assisi
16

All is God's will, but Maya prevents you from knowing it's all God's will. He gave us eyes, ears, nose, mouth. But He also gave us wisdom to use them to attain God.

Neem Karoli Baba
16

You find God the moment you realize that you don't need to seek God.

Eckhart Tolle
16

Wisdom leads to unity, but ignorance to separation. So long as God seems to be outside and far away, there is ignorance. But when God is realised within, that is true knowledge.

Ramakrishna
16

Devotion to God is an addiction that lasts all the time.

Neem Karoli Baba
16

Unless one always speaks the truth, one cannot find God Who is the soul of truth.

Ramakrishna
16

God is the very creative energy of existence - creativity rather than a creator. He is not the poet but the poetry, not the dancer but the dance, not the flower but the fragrance.

Osho (Rajneesh)
