When The Soul Wants To

A Man Should Orient His Will And All His Works To God And Having Only God In View Go Forward Unafraid, Not Thinking, Am I Right Or Am I Wrong? One Who Worked Out All The Chances Before Starting His First Fight Would Never Fight At All. And If, Going To Someplace, We Must Think How To Set The Front Foot Down, We Shall Never Get There. It Is Our Duty To Do The Next Thing: Go Straight On, That Is The Right Way.

Theologians May Quarrel, But The Mystics Of The World Speak The Same Language.

Even Stones Have A Love, A Love That Seeks The Ground.

Existence Itself Stands In Need Of Nothing, For It Lacks Nothing, Whereas Everything Else Needs It, Because Outside Of It There Is Nothing. Nothingness Stands In Need Of Existence, As A Sick Man Lacks Health And Is In Need. Health Has No Need Of A Sick Man. To Want Nothing, Therefore, Characterizes The Highest Perfection, Is Fullest And Purest Existence.

[w]e Must Come Into A Transformed Knowing, An Unknowing Which Comes Not From Ignorance But From Knowledge.
