CALL FOR PEACE
think on, hath worn the crown.â          Â
ECCLESIASTICUS ââWork your work before the time, and he will give you your reward in his time.âÂ
ECKHART ââGod must be sought in estrangement, forgetfulness and non-sense; for the Godhead has in it all things in posse without the least likeness to anything.â   Â
ECKHART ââHe who would be what he ought to be must stop being what he is.â           Â
ECKHART ââI say that next to God there is no nobler thing than suffering… I hold, if anything were nobler than suffering, God would have saved mankind therewith, for we might well accuse him of being unfriendly to his Son if he knew of something superior to suffering… Further, I maintain, no man apart from God has ever been so holy or so good as to deserve the least nobility such as the smallest suffering would give… I tell you, right suffering is the mother of all virtues, for right suffering so subdues the heart, it cannot rise to pride but perforce is lowly.âÂ
ECKHART ââThings are all made from nothing; hence their true source is nothing.â  Â
ECKHART ââVirgin is… a person void of alien images, free as he was when he existed not.â
ECKHART ââWe ought to be utterly detached in our intention, having ho one and nothing in view but the Godhead as such: not happiness nor this nor that, just God and Godhead in itself. Aught beside that thou intendest is a divine impurity Seize the actual God head itself. God help us so to do.â
ECKHART ââWhat is willing in the God head? It is the father watching the play of his own nature. What is this play? It is his eternal son. There has always been this play going on in the father nature. Play and audience are the same… as it is written in the Book of Wisdom, Prior to creatures, in the eternal now, I have played before the father in his eternal stillness. The son has eternally been playing before the father as the father has before his son. The playing of the twain is the Holy Ghost in whom they both disport themselves and he disports himself in both. Sport and players are the same. Their nature proceeding in itself, ‘God is a fountain flowing into itself, as St Dionysius says.â
ECKHART ââWhen God created the soul he fell back upon himself and made her after his own likeness.â
ECKHART ââWhen the soul wishes to experience something, she simply throws out an image, and enters into it.âÂ
ECKHART TOLLE -â”Seeking” implies that you are looking to the future for some answer, or for some achievement, spiritual or otherwise. Everybody is in the seeking mode, seeking to add something to who they are, whether it be money, relationships, possessions, knowledge, status or spiritual attainment.â  Â
ECKHART TOLLE ââThe present moment has always been available to spiritual seekers, but as long as you are seeking you are not available to the present moment. “Seeking” implies that you are looking to the future for some answer, or for some achievement, spiritual or otherwise. Everybody is in the seeking mode, seeking to add something to who they are, whether it be money relationships, possessions, knowledge, status… or spiritual attainment.â      Â

EDDIE CANTOR ââSlow down and enjoy life. It is not only the scenery you miss by going too fast, you also miss the sense of where you are going and why.â    Â
EDDIE VEDDER ââI’d rather be/I’d rather be with/I’d rather be with an animal.â  Â
EDDIE VEDDER– âThe sorrow grows bigger when the sorrowâs denied.â
