I hope you find great value in these Quotes about Communion from my large collection of inspirational quotes and motivational sayings.
Through Qigong, one learns to quiet the mind
and allow communion with the One.
We call the One "Tao," but you may be more comfortable
with a term like "Holy Spirit," or "God,"
as long as you don't start visualizing
an old man on a throne floating in the sky.
The One is everything, and everything is the One.
Each of us is the One, and the One is inside each of us.
Just remember that it's an infinity thing -
the tiniest bit of infinity is still infinite.

Let children walk with Nature,
let them see the beautiful blendings

plains and mountains and streams
of our blessed star,
and they will learn that death
is stingless indeed,
and as beautiful as life.
- John Muir
Anything will give up its secrets if you love it enough.

self-respect and self-esteem.

a friend with whom to share your troubles, fears, hopes, and dreams.
