A biography for Neale Donald Walschhasn’t been written yet.
“One either has to believe in a God who's terribly prejudiced, or disbelieve the teachings of such exclusionary theologies. Religions have taught us that 'we are better than they.'”
“The new spirituality will step away from dogma, will step away from 'We're right and you're wrong.'”
“The new spirituality will also base itself on a third very large spiritual understanding, which is that life is eternal. Most religious people claim to believe that, but very few people actually live as if that were true.”
“And because we are, somehow, better than they, we get to go to heaven and they don't. Christians will tell you outright that they believe that.”
“I think in metaphysical terms, I would call that increasing the speed of the vibration of life.”
“The purpose of relationship is not to have another who might complete you, but to have another with whom you might share your completeness.”
“God is in the sadness and the laughter, in the bitter and the sweet.”
“The deepest secret is that life is not a process of discovery, but a process of creation. You are not discovering yourself, but creating yourself anew. Seek therefore, not to find out Who You Are, but seek to determine Who You Want to Be.”
“A life lived of choice is a life of conscious action. A life lived of chance is a life of unconscious creation.”
“Remember first that everything you think, say, and do is a reflection of what you've decided about yourself; a statement of Who You Are; an act of creation in your deciding who you want to be.”
“Start telling the truth now and never stop. Begin by telling the truth to yourself about yourself. Then tell the truth to yourself about someone else. Then tell the truth about yourself to another. Then tell the truth about another to that other. Finally, tell the truth to everyone about everything. These are the 5 levels of truth telling. This is the five-fold path to freedom.”
“Life begins at the end of your comfort zone.”
“Glorify who you are today, do not condemn who you were yesterday, and dream of who you can be tomorrow.”
“As we move into the 21st century, there's what the Bible calls a 'quickening of the spirit.'”
“Beyond the Catholic exclusionary paradigm is a larger one which is the Christian one. Christians claim that if you don't believe in Christ, you can't get to heaven. Well that eliminates two thirds of the world's population!”
“The new spirituality is that it will produce an experience in human encounters in which we become a living demonstration of the basic spiritual teaching 'We are all one.'”
“And we're seeing a higher level of consciousness and many more opportunities for people to challenge their present ways of thinking and move into a grander and larger experience of who they really are.”
“They may not use the word better. But they certainly believe that they'll go to heaven and Jews will not.”
“I was told to challenge every spiritual teacher, every world leader to utter the one sentence that no religion, no political party, and no nation on the face of the earth will dare utter: 'Ours is not a better way, ours is merely another way.”
“A Soul Knowing: You are the sum total of the Body, Mind, and Soul, and each of these aspects of you has a purpose and a function, but only one has an agenda: the Soul.”
