More quotes by Hildegard of Bingen
Those voices you hear are like the voice of a multitude, which lifts its sound on high for jubilant praises, offered in simple harmony and charity, lead the faithful to that consonance in which is no discord, and make those who still live on earth sign with heart and voice for the heavenly reward.
Hildegard of Bingen
The Word is living, being, spirit, all verdant greening, all creativity. This Word manifests itself in every creature.
Hildegard of Bingen
Like billowing clouds, Like the incessant gurgle of the brook The longing of the spirit can never be stilled.
Hildegard of Bingen
The fire has its flame and praises God. The wind blows the flame and praises God. In the voice we hear the word which praises God. And the word, when heard, praises God. So all of creation is a song of praise to God.
Hildegard of Bingen
Everything that is in the heavens, on earth, and under the earth is penetrated with connectedness, penetrated with relatedness.
Hildegard of Bingen
With nature's help, humankind can set into creation all that is necessary and life sustaining.
Hildegard of Bingen
Cerevisiam Bibat! (drink beer for health)
Hildegard of Bingen
There is the music of Heaven in all things.
Hildegard of Bingen
Rivers of living water are to be poured out over the whole world, to ensure that people, like fishes caught in a net, can be restored to wholeness.
Hildegard of Bingen
All of creation is a song of praise to God.
Hildegard of Bingen
The marvels of God are not brought forth from one's self. Rather, it is more like a chord, a sound that is played. The tone does not come out of the chord itself, but rather, through the touch of the musician. I am, of course, the lyre and harp of God's kindness.
Hildegard of Bingen
Humanity finds itself in the midst of the world. In the midst of all other creatures humanity is the most significant and yet the most dependent upon the others.
Hildegard of Bingen
I am the fiery life of the essence of God I am the flame above the beauty in the fields I shine in the waters I burn in the sun, the moon, and the stars. And with the airy wind, I quicken all things vitally by an unseen, all-sustaining life.
Hildegard of Bingen
What I do not see I do not know. I see, hear and know simultaneously and learn what I know as if in a moment.
Hildegard of Bingen
O, You who are ever giving life to all life, moving all creatures, root of all things, washing them clean, wiping out their mistakes, healing their wounds, You are our true life, luminous, wonderful, awakening the heart from its ancient sleep.
Hildegard of Bingen
Divinity is in its omniscience and omnipotence like a wheel, a circle, a whole, that can neither be understood, nor divided, nor begun nor ended.
Hildegard of Bingen
I, God, am in your midst. Whoever knows me can never fall. Not in the heights, nor in the depths, nor in the breadths. For I am love, which the vast expanses of evil can never still.
Hildegard of Bingen
Angels, living light most glorious! Beneath the Godhead in burning desire in the darkness and mystery of creation you look on the eye of your God never taking your fill: What glorious pleasures take shape within you!
Hildegard of Bingen
The soul is kissed by God in its innermost regions.
Hildegard of Bingen
It is easier to gaze into the sun, than into the face of the mystery of God. Such is its beauty and its radiance.
Hildegard of Bingen
