More quotes by Gary Zukav
Hatred of evil does not diminish evil, it increases it.
Gary Zukav
Emotions are classes in the Earth school. Some classes are about fear, and some are about love. The Universe is your tutor, and your classroom is your life. The main course in the Earth school, Authentic Power, is the same for everyone, but different students need different courses in order to complete it.
Gary Zukav
Judging is a preemptive attack against that which you most desire - intimacy and acceptance - that is launched before you can be rejected or refused.
Gary Zukav
Authentic power is the real deal. You can't inherit it, buy it, or win it. You also can't lose it. You don't need to build your body, reputation, wealth, or charisma to get it.
Gary Zukav
Caregivers attract caregivers and live in a community of love. They are energized by their caring, fulfilled, and they love life. Caretakers attract caretakers and live in the company of resentful victims who see themselves as misused and are fatigued from constant giving with no return.
Gary Zukav
The purpose of this life and all its experiences is not to make ourselves what we think we should be. It is to unfold who we already are.
Gary Zukav
The loving parts of your personality are content, grateful, patient, appreciative, caring, and more. They are interested in others. They do not judge others or themselves. They are not confined by fear. The more you experience them, the more you experience joy.
Gary Zukav
The human emotional system can be broken down into roughly two elements: fear and love. Love is of the soul. Fear is of the personality.
Gary Zukav
You cannot create a life of fulfillment, joy, and meaning while you are barricading yourself from others and from the opportunities Life offers you.
Gary Zukav
Your pain is an opportunity for you to learn about yourself.
Gary Zukav
He who sees his soul is more than his life does not confuse the two.
Gary Zukav
You cannot find your soul with your mind, you must use your heart. You must know what you are feeling. If you don't know what you are feeling, you will create unconsciously. If you are unconscious of an aspect of yourself if it operates outside your field of awareness, that aspect has power over you.
Gary Zukav
The only thing that can cause your body to hurt in your energy processing centers, [chakras] is when you are losing Spirit through one of them.
Gary Zukav
Until you can say what is most difficult for you to say, you cannot speak from your heart, live unafraid, create health, or receive support from others.
Gary Zukav
As you create authentic power, you discover that the people in your life whom you thought were your enemies are not really enemies from the point of view of your soul. From the point of view of your soul, they are your friends or you would not be together at all.
Gary Zukav
Your soul is that part of you that existed before you were born and will continue to exist after you die. [It] is immortal. You are a powerful and creative compassionate and loving spirit that has entered the Earth school to learn lessons and to give gifts. Your personality is a tool of your soul.
Gary Zukav
Emotional pain of any kind is a reminder to stop and look inside.
Gary Zukav
Angry people attract angry people and live in an angry world and this validates their opinion that the world is angry.
Gary Zukav
Emotions reflect intentions. Therefore, awareness of emotions leads to awareness of intentions.
Gary Zukav
The soul of an individual your soul and my soul, is that part of us that is immortal. Your personality is that part of you that was born into time, that matures in time, or at least grows older in time and then decays and passes away.
