The spiritual journey does not consist in arriving at a new destination where a person gains what he did not have, or becomes what he is not. It consists in the dissipation of one's own ignorance concerning one's self and life, and the gradual growth of that understanding which begins the spiritual awakening. The finding of God is a coming to one's self.

The spiritual journey does not consist in arriving at a new destination where a person gains what he did not have, or becomes what he is not.

It is because we don’t know who we are, because we are unaware that the Kingdom of Heaven is within us, that we behave in the generally silly, the often insane, the sometimes criminal ways that are so characteristically human. We are saved, we are liberated and enlightened, by perceiving the hitherto unperceived good that is already within us, by returning to our eternal ground and remaining where, without knowing it, we have always been.
~ Aldous Huxley Quotes

“I was directed to this site by Google when looking for quotes for a business assignment at uni. The quotes and ideas it gave me went way beyond the assignment, and were inspirational and timely. I now have www.thinkarete.com stuck to my work computer on a post-it note. I check it whenever I can, and I am grateful that there's a resource like this. Thanks and please keep making it happen. I believe that the key to positivity is accepting life's negativity, rather than fighting with it internally. Regards from Australia.”
