"A soul, being invisible by nature, can be distinguished only by the presence of its body or bodies. The mere presence of a body signifies that its existence is made possible by unfulfilled desires.”
~ Sri Yukteswar Giri (from, An Autobiography of a Yogi)

"I simply found myself doing so, and could not do otherwise" - Nelson Mandela This is a very, very good quote. Yeah the way I understand it, Mandela did a lot of clearance work on Robben Island. His depth of forgiveness for all South Africans was without end. So by the time of his release in 1990, he was a free man in a much greater way than anyone could have imagined.

“There are three essential steps in the spiritual path: the first is to notice that one is not a body or a mind, but rather the Awareness in which these appear, and with which they are known; the second is to explore the nature of Awareness and discover that it doesn’t share the destiny or the limits of the body and mind -– that is, to discover its eternal, infinite nature; and the third is to live a life that is consistent with this understanding.” Rupert Spira

Overheard at Nisargadatta Station: "People come here with some profound concepts of spirituality. They think that they have spiritual knowledge, and they want me to give them a clean certificate, “Yes, you are very knowledgeable.” This I don’t do, I blast their concepts, and hence the confrontation." [flicks a beedie]
