Thérèse of Lisieux
“I have not the courage to make myself search for wonderful prayers in books; there are so many of them, and it gives me a headache. In any case, each one seems more beautiful than the one before. As I cannot day all of them, and do not know which to choose, I just act like a child who can't read; I tell God, quite simply, all that I want to say, and He always understands.
Prayer, for me, is simply a raising of the heart, a simple glance towards Heaven, an expression of love and gratitude in the midst of trial, as well as in times of joy; in a word, it is something noble and supernatural expanding my soul and uniting it to God.”
St. Therese of Lisieux, The Story of a Soul: The Autobiography of St. Therese of Lisieux With Additional Writings, Prayers, and Sayings of St. Therese

Abhijit Naskar
“I have shaped and nourished my mind for years to hail all women on earth as my sisters and their problems as my problems. When I am engaged in a conversation with one of my sisters anywhere in the world, my eyes are not subconsciously driven to take a quick peek down her blouse. I belong to all women, all men, everywhere, as a brother. And being a brother calls for the responsibility of thinking, feeling and behaving like a brother, instead of a potential mate-hunter. Here I am by no means insinuating that all men should see all women as sisters, rather I am pointing out that all civilized men should at the very least have the decency to see women as persons, and not as objects of sexual gratification or as potential mating partners, because only then we shall succeed as a conscientious species to give a safe and non-predatory environment to our children.”
Abhijit Naskar, Lives to Serve Before I Sleep

Abhijit Naskar
“Saints don't turn water into wine,
Saints just turn tears into cheer.
Saints don't walk on water,
Saints just walk on land,
without drowning in hate and fear.
Saints are not magical beings,
whose basket never runs empty.
Saints are just mortal beings,
whose heart never runs out of amity.”
Abhijit Naskar, Sin Dios Sí Hay Divinidad: The Pastor Who Never Was

“Every world has its villains, every universe has its saints.”
Matshona Dhliwayo

A sage’s soul is wider than a world.”

Mwanandeke Kindembo
“The cosmic consciousness is linked with your soul or with one tapped in their intuitive abilities. All the geniuses can be classified into this last stage of the mind and only few people have achieved that experience of the highest type of intelligence. Some we call gods, prophets, saints and others are called geniuses.”
Mwanandeke Kindembo, Treatise Upon The Misconceptions of Narcissism

Mwanandeke Kindembo
“Since most of the saints are former sinners. I believe the word "holy" means the combination of good and evil.”
Mwanandeke Kindembo

“You are drunk with the practicing of constant sins, and shaken by the waves of accumulated crimes that incessantly rush upon you; seek then, as though you had suffered shipwreck, with all the striving of your mind, for the single plank of penitence that can carry you to the land of the living, so that the fury of the Lord may be turned away from you. For in His mercy He said: 'I do not desire the death of a sinner, but that he may turn and live.”
St. Gildas, Gildas the Wise: THE RUIN OF BRITAIN, FRAGMENTS FROM LOST LETTERS, THE PENITENTIAL, TOGETHER WITH THE LORICA OF GILDAS

Aiyaz Uddin
“The Earth is a testing ground for every one of us including the most prominent and of the most eminent ones.

A place where we find duality in everything including how we see it and how it actually is in reality.

Similarly, the duality concept is in people you see and meet who are either good, bad, or people who have two faces, one that they show and one that they are within.

One is the duality of the personalities we veil through ourselves and another is the duality of the soul within.

Whether are you a soul having fire within or are you a soul having light within and whichever you feed the most becomes your abode within and hereafter.

You are both, your heaven and hell, fire and light, and finally, love or hate within.

And our creator wants us to purify ourselves of the fire within and become light by being on the side of truth within and outside, righteousness within and outside, and pious within and outside, and finally sincere within and outside.

Creator loves the one who has one tongue, one thing which is in the heart and which is on the tongue. The thing you are within is outside and the thing outside is within so you become successful.

Like Rocky has said: “The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It is a very mean and nasty place and it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't how hard you hit; it's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward."

The matter is not that you have truth with you but the question is are you truthful?!.

The truth will only set you free when you are truthful within yourself.”
Aiyaz Uddin, The Inward Journey

Mwanandeke Kindembo
“If I happened to have lived in past generations, I believe that people would have given me the title of saint, out of humility, or would have thought that I was inspired by an angel of God himself.”
Mwanandeke Kindembo

P.S. Jagadeesh Kumar
“If you don't love, you shall become a saint;
If you love, you shall too become god.”
P.S. Jagadeesh Kumar
