Quotes From The Road #294

“Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.”

Rumi, 1207-1273: 13th century Persian poet, jurist, theologian, and Sufi mystic

“Love is what we are born with. Fear is what we learn. The spiritual journey is the unlearning of fear and prejudices and the acceptance of love back in our hearts. Love is the essential reality and our purpose on earth. To be consciously aware of it, to experience love in ourselves and others, is the meaning of life. Meaning does not lie in things. Meaning lies in us.”

Marrianne Williamson: spiritual teacher, lecturer and author of ten books, including four New York Times #1 bestsellers
