Temple Spiritual Quotes

#1. Until self-effacing men return again to spiritual leadership, we may expect a progressive deterioration in the quality of popular Christianity year after year till we reach the point where the grieved Holy Spirit withdraws - like the Shekinah from the temple. #Quote by Aiden Wilson Tozer

#2. When "I" and "You" are absent, I've no idea if this is a mosque, synagogue, church or temple #Quote by Mahmud Shabistari

#3. Great peace is found in little busy-ness. Chaucer #Quote by Sylvia Shaw Judson

#4. Faith is not so much something we believe; faith is something we live. #Quote by Joseph B. Wirthlin

#5. Pray about everything you want. #Quote by Lailah Gifty Akita

#6. Getting sober never felt like I had pulled myself up by my own spiritual bootstraps. It felt instead like I was on one path toward destruction and God pulled me off of it by the scruff of my collar, me hopelessly kicking and flailing and saying, 'Screw you. I'll take the destruction please.' God looked at tiny, little red-faced me and said, 'that's adorable,' and then plunked me down on an entirely different path. #Quote by Nadia Bolz-Weber

#7. Poets must be grounded in the education of the arts, drama, history, mysticism, esotericism, and philosophy. To gain knowledge and become learned of the above is easy - read. Poets should apply this knowledge to their work, so a poet will advance to the next level, to their next phase of their emotional, psychological and spiritual development, growing in years in a short space of time, in hours or months if he or she is an avid reader. This knowledge will birth work that is not meretricious but of noble parentage. #Quote by Abigail George

#8. Time is money. Wasted time means wasted money means trouble. #Quote by Shirley Temple

#9. Every warrior of light has felt afraid of going into battle.
Every warrior of light has, at some time in the past, lied or betrayed someone.
Every warrior of light has trodden a path that was not his.
Every warrior of light has suffered for the most trivial of reasons.
Every warrior of light has, at least once, believed that he was not a warrior of light.
Every warrior of light has failed in his spiritual duties.
Every warrior of light has said 'yes' when he wanted to say 'no'.
Every warrior of light has hurt someone he loved.
That is why he is a warrior of light, because he has been through all this and yet has never lost hope of being better than he is.
#Quote by Paulo Coelho

#10. I'm not a stray," he said. "I'm. Not. Right. In. The. Head." He jabbed his temple, and the bump on my own head seemed to throb. "I'm fucking rabid and mangy, and I'll piss all over your carpets if I stick around long enough. I'll take what you give me, but I'm not nice, Adrian. #Quote by C.M. McKenna

#11. Focusing on thoughts or images that make you feel good will enable you to be at a higher level energetically and, consequently, will draw to you a higher level of vibrational experience. In other words, positive thoughts will attract positive experiences. The reverse is also true. If you've fallen into the habit of negative obsessing and/or fear-based thinking, you need to know that you can shift to a healthier, happier mindset. #Quote by Susan Barbara Apollon

#12. Soul is the central point of spiritual discipline. #Quote by Mahavira

#13. That Spanish woman who lived three hundred years ago, was certainly not the last of her kind. Many Theresas have been born who found for themselves no epic life wherein there was a constant unfolding of far-resonant action; perhaps only a life of mistakes, the offspring of a certain spiritual grandeur ill-matched with the meanness of opportunity; perhaps a tragic failure which found no sacred poet and sank unwept into oblivion. With dim lights and tangled circumstance they tried to shape their thought and deed in noble agreement; but after all, to common eyes their struggles seemed mere inconsistency and formlessness; for these later-born Theresas were helped by no coherent social faith and order which could perform the function of knowledge for the ardently willing soul. Their ardor alternated between a vague ideal and the common yearning of womanhood; so that the one was disapproved as extravagance, and the other condemned as a lapse. #Quote by George Eliot

#14. For those who seek a lifestyle of meaning served by purpose than listen well. To live rightly is a grace from
God(dess) of the Most High. Albeit it is not meant to be an easy feat either in its pursuit. To live a life of well being one must find a balance that is appropriate to one's own purpose in life. Once found and understood correctly, then one can live by such a hallmark of fortitude. Otherwise one will wander far and wide in a haze of confusion not valuing themselves truly. Find your balance and it will lead you back to yourself and God(dess) awaiting you with open arms. Amen. #Quote by Ivan Alexander Pozo-Illas

#15. Like measuring light as a particle or wave makes it what the observer expects, so too does assuming things about reality make it so. I fear the conclusion people gear up for is the wholesale demise of many millions unless this spiritual ennui ceases. How many catastrophes have people expected in the last few decades? How many times have humans expected the End Times? #Quote by Thomm Quackenbush

#16. True self-reliance does not mean reliance on one's physical strength; it means reliance on something mightier, something which is less perishable ... It means trusting in the spiritual. #Quote by Swami Paramananda

#17. All truths are old, and all that we have to do is recognize and utter them anew. #Quote by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

#18. Understand that the Cosmos
is not an alien wave of planets
that have no personal connection with you
Look at the stars
Feel them vibrating through your whole body
They are your friends
and are part of your Greater Self

The sky you are looking at is very alive
The stars are not just shining at you
They are beckoning unto you
to be one with them
They are beaming their message
for humanity to join
the Universal balance #Quote by Natasha Rendell

#19. Man moves in a world that is nothing more or less than his consciousness objectified.–Neville Goddard #Quote by Neville Goddard

#20. Deep down, I have come to the conclusion that the reason (children) are such a low priority to the great human institutions that seek to control this world, both secular and Christian, is that an invisible battle, a spiritual war, rages over each and every child. It is above us and beyond us and engages the full fury of the hosts of both heaven and hell. Children may be ignored by government, church, and mission – but not by Satan or God Almighty. #Quote by Wess Stafford

#21. Thus began the long process of transforming Jesus from a revolutionary Jewish nationalist into a peaceful spiritual leader with no interest in any earthly matter. That was a Jesus the Romans could accept, and in fact did accept three centuries later when the Roman emperor Flavius Theodosius (d. 395) made the itinerant Jewish preacher's movement the official religion of the state, and what we now recognize as orthodox Christianity was born. #Quote by Reza Aslan

#22. After coming to God and being revived spiritually, every person should grow spiritually #Quote by Sunday Adelaja

#23. Actually, the urban dweller today is more isolated in the big city than his ancestors were in the countryside. The city man in the modern metropolis has reached a degree of anonymity, social atomization, and spiritual isolation that is virtually unprecedented in human history. Today man's alienation from man is almost absolute. His standards of co-operation, mutual aid, simple human hospitality, and decency have suffered an appalling amount of erosion in the urban milieu. Man's civic institutions have become cold, impersonal agencies for the manipulation of his destiny, and his culture has increasingly accommodated itself to the least common denominator of intelligence and taste. #Quote by Murray Bookchin

#24. The spiritual world exists as a cosmos in itself. A cosmos containing worlds. And there is synergy and harmony amongst these worlds. What humam beings have done to their interpretation of this cosmos, is merely only that-- a human interpretation. The way things are here, you'd have me believing that there is some kind of great big race to win people over to this God or to that God; to that religion or to this religion. People see separation when in fact there is no separation that exists in the spiritual world. The unseen (heaven, God, angels, etc.) do not exist the way that we exist. We are the ones turning God against God and angel against angel. With our writings and our churches and our teachers and our pews. #Quote by C. JoyBell C.

#25. Writing a memoir is a holistic method of learning and healing by placing responsibility for personal transformation on the spiritual authority of the self. Writing a person's life story is useful to gain a comprehensive understanding regarding a person's maturation, distinctive stages of personal development, and the influences provided by their family and society. The writing processes also serves as a catharsis for painful personal events that a person seeks to integrate into their transmuting being. Writing our personal story, we discover new dimensions of our being. #Quote by Kilroy J. Oldster

#26. Then I smelled it - the sweet scent of vanilla flooded the kitchen. "Aw shit," I huffed. I'd smelled Aidric's desire enough through the years to recognize it.
"Mate," Carter growled, taking a step toward Aidric.
Aidric squeaked. That was the best way to describe the sound that came out of him.
"Goddess," Dolf muttered.
"Oh, fuck me," Temple said at the same time.
Marshell burst out laughing. Of course.
That seemed to break the tension in the kitchen. The rest of us all started talking at once while Carter and Aidric stared at each other. I was pretty sure nothing else existed around them.
Finally Dolf rapped his knuckles on the table, and that seemed to break whatever hold the two other men were in. Carter took a deep breath and ran one of those huge paws he called a hand over his bald head.
Aidric started breathing again. But that didn't seem to be enough. He took another breath and then another… and pretty soon he was panting. Oh, that wasn't good. I edged my way closer to him while keeping an eye on the other Alpha #Quote by M.A. Church

#27. Always let your heart shine bright, because this inner light will guide you home, even in the darkest night. #Quote by Jennifer Sodini

#28. I have read of a glass kept in an idol temple in Smyrna that would make beautiful things appear deformed, and deformed things appear beautiful; carnal sense is such a glass to wicked men, it makes heavenly things which are beautiful to appear deformed, and earthly things which are deformed to appear beautiful. #Quote by Ralph Venning

#29. For all its idyllic charm, and in the joy of companionship of Sita, Rama never lost sight of his main purpose in settling down in this region - he had come here to encounter and destroy the asuras, the fiends who infested this area, causing suffering and hardship to all the good souls who only wanted to be left alone to pursue their spiritual aims in peace. Rama's whole purpose of incarnation was ultimately to destroy Ravana, the chief of the asuras, abolish fear from the hearts of men and gods, and establish peace, gentleness, and justice in the world. #Quote by R.K. Narayan

#30. The essence of every single person on this planet it God. #Quote by Dr. Milan LaBrey

#31. His breath tickled the hair at her temple. "Talk to me."
She shook her head.
"Then tell me to leave you alone."
I can't. #Quote by Elizabeth Hunter

#32. Not in government or force, not in slavery or war, but in the creative, and thereby spiritual, power of freedom, shall our inspiration be found. #Quote by F. A. Harper

#33. In Hinayana Buddhism, practice is classified in four ways. The best way is just to do it without having any joy in it, not even spiritual joy. This way is just to do it, forgetting your physical and mental feeling, forgetting all about yourself in your practice. #Quote by Shunryu Suzuki

#34. How do we nurture the soul? By revering our own life. By learning to love it all, not only the joys and the victories, but also the pain and the struggles. #Quote by Nathaniel Branden

#35. No matter what kind of circumstances come together, if one's stillness is not shaken and his goal does not change; he is known to have attained religion. #Quote by Dada Bhagwan

#36. Every relationship is a love-lesson. #Quote by Donna Goddard

#37. Without humility, all spiritual progress stops. #Quote by Frederick Lenz

#38. It is important for people to recognize that those who are working for the dissolution of our society have a spiritual agenda. They are not merely attempting to dismantle the historic cultural values of this nation and move us toward a homogenized world. They also want to destroy Christianity and Bible-based religion. It is a clear part of their agenda and they have already moved a long way in that direction. #Quote by Pat Robertson
