Like a path through the forest, Sabbath creates a marker for ourselves so, if we are lost, we can find our way back to our center.

More quotes by Wayne Muller
What we love and what captures our curiosity draws us forward into some place of great destiny.
Wayne Muller
Emptiness is the pregnant void out of which all creation springs. But many of us fear emptiness. We prefer to remain...surrounded by things...we imagine are subject to our control.
Wayne Muller
Because we do not rest we lose our way...Poisoned by the hypnotic belief that good things come only through unceasing determination and tireless effort, we never truly rest. And for want of rest, our lives are in danger.
Wayne Muller
A kind life...is fundamentally a life of courage.
Wayne Muller
We become what we love. Whatever you are giving your time and attention to, day after day, is the kind of person you will eventually become.
Wayne Muller
Be not afraid. A kind life, a life of spirit, is fundamentally a life of courage-the courage simply to bring what you have, to bring who you are.
Wayne Muller
Effortlessness is the ability to slow down and listen for the spaces between the joints... Deep within all things there is a natural rhythm, a music of opening and closing, expansion and contraction.
Wayne Muller
A gift is like a seed it is not an impressive thing. It is what can grow from the seed that is impressive. If we wait until our seed becomes a tree before we offer it, we will wait and wait, and the seed will die from lack of planting.... The miracle is not just the gift the miracle is in the offering, for if we do not offer, who will?
Wayne Muller
We are called to be strong companions and clear mirrors to one another, to seek those who reflect with compassion and a keen eye how we are doing, whether we seem centered or off course ... we need the nourishing company of others to create the circle needed for growth, freedom and healing.
Wayne Muller
Every day, we are given countless opportunities to offer our gifts to those at work, in our families, our relationships.... If you give less than what you are, you dishonor the gift of your own precious life.
Wayne Muller
Even when our intentions are noble and our efforts sincere, even when we dedicate our lives to the service of others, the corrosive pressure of frantic over-activity can nonetheless cause suffering in ourselves and others. A successful life can become a violent enterprise.
Wayne Muller
What if the healing of the world utterly depends on the ten-thousand invisible kindnesses we offer simply and quietly throughout the pilgrimage of each human life?
Wayne Muller
Meditation helps me feel the shape, the texture of my inner life. Here, in the quiet, I can begin to taste what Buddhists would call my true nature, what Jews call the still, small voice, what Christians call the holy spirit.
Wayne Muller
What we choose to love is very important for what we love leads our eyes, ears, and hearts on a pilgrimage that shapes the texture of our lives.
Wayne Muller
To pray is no small thing. It is nothing less than a sacred pilgrimage into the heart of the whole world.
Wayne Muller
All life has emptiness at its core it is the quiet hollow reed through which the wind of God blows and makes the music that is our life.
Wayne Muller
Gratitude invites a sense of sufficiency.
Wayne Muller
True kindness is rooted in a deep sense of abundance, out of which flows a sense that even as I give, it is being given back to me.
Wayne Muller
When we do what we love, again and again, our life comes to hold the fragrance of that thing.
Wayne Muller
If we do not allow for a rhythm of rest in our overly busy lives, illness becomes our Sabbath— our pneumonia, our cancer, our heart attack, our accidents create Sabbath for us.
