A whole new kind of spiritual happiness dawns in us as we realize that dark clouds do not ruin sunny skies... they merely pass through them to help us remember our love of the light.
Guy Finley

Once something has outlived its usefulness in one area of life, its purpose for being in existence is no longer the same.

Guy Finley
Image
Rushing around, hoping to find peace of mind anywhere other than within yourself, is like looking for your heart in someone else's body!
Guy Finley
Image
Instead of always asking yourself why so-and-so acts this or that way, learn to ask: What's inside of me that wants to hurt itself over how anyone else acts?
Guy Finley
Image
If we're interested in spiritual things, we gradually realize that what we really need is to understand this nature that seems to be a bottomless basket, because there is no peace in it.
Guy Finley
Image
Everything passes. There is great beauty in this, both in the passing of pain and in the passing of pleasure. When things present themselves to you as permanent, don't believe it.
Guy Finley
Image
The only world in which defeat exists as a reality is the one darkened by the false idea that what may have happened to us a moment ago is the same as what's possible for us to achieve now.
Guy Finley
Image
Never run from what you don't understand, as it will be waiting for you every time you come to a stop.
Guy Finley
Image
Act on what you love, not from what you fear, and watch how fear fades as love grows.
Guy Finley
Image
Ours is the task of discovering that our true nature has nothing to fear.
