“Experiment with reframing the way you look at people and things. Change your eyes. Stop thinking in terms of profit and loss, useful and useless, functional and dysfunctional, and valuable and worthless, and play with the notion that we experience the fullest en-joy-ment of life only when we adopt a stance of adoration to things, other living beings, and persons. ” ~~ Sam Keen – Hymns To An Unknown God

“Being is the practice of gratitude and compassion. I am alive only in the degree that I am moved by the tidal rhythm of receiving and giving. I am a gossamer curtain hanging in a window separating time and eternity, blowing back and forth in the everlasting breeze.” ~~ Sam Keen: Hymns To An Unknown God

“What we call “the spiritual life” and the “spiritual quest” are simply the ways we discover to transcend our delusions of our separateness, superiority, or inferiority and gradually feel our identity with our fellow beings and compassion for them. ” ~~ Sam Keen: Hymns To An Unknown God

More from Sam Keen today… Food For Thought…
“I am that being who has the capacity to transcend my mental-emotional-bodily conditioning. I am the one who can escape the imprisonment of my ancient character armor. I am the one who is not determined by yesterday. The correct names for this capacity for self-transcendence are – freedom, spirit, and soul.” ~ Sam Keen – Hymns To An Unknown God

“The spirit, like the wind, blows where it will. No spiritual technology produces grace. We can go through the motions of religion for a lifetime and still have a hard heart and a paranoid mind.” “Breath is the simplest vehicle of transcendence.” ~~ Sam Keen – Hymns To An Unknown God
