“I have said for many years
that the only real difference between a philosophy
and a religion
is one or more gods...

I am learning more and more--
as I did when studying eastern religions in my twenties--
how powerful prayer can be,
and I don't mean because one god answers anyone's prayers.

It is the place it puts us in.
Focus.
Reflection.
Vertical communication.
Surrender (to the powers that be
and those that may or may not be).
And so:
Hope.”
Shellen Lubin

“A critical attitude, like activity, is one of the fundamental characteristics of our time. Both are interdependent. If the critical attitude should dwindle, there would be more peace and less intelligence, to the benefit of the essential. Neither criticism nor activity, however, can steer the course in such a direction - this means that higher forces are involved.”
Ernst Jünger, The Glass Bees

Robin S. Baker
“In my personal life, learning more about my inner workings has given me confirmation that there are higher sources of power that exists among us. And because we are created in the energetic and spiritual image of them, we can experience nourishment and growth on their level of existence as well.”
Robin S. Baker, Esotericism With an Unconventional Soul: Exploring Philosophy, Spirituality, Science, and Mysticism

“The Twelve Steps teach that the only way to be freed from addiction and restored to sanity is through total and constant reliance on a Higher Power. I guess this Higher Power is somehow supposed to replace drugs, pleasure, and whatever else we have placed at the epicenter of our existence and fill the gap that these things cannot. Since our Higher Power is independent from, separate from, and beyond us, a Higher Power can help us in ways we cannot help ourselves. If we cannot put our Higher Power at the center of our lives, then something else will be there, and it will not be so kind a ruler.”
Michael J Heil

“For most of the year I wore no shoes. This Higher Power was my guide, but it seemed to be just as confused about the world as I was. Eventually, I realized that my Higher Power was an ethereal nothingness. It was a collection of lofty ideas that, although beautiful, were not capable of contradicting me, reshaping my paradigms, or defining reality for me. It was a god that appealed to my own sensibilities; it was as ever-changing and subjective as my own mind.”
Michael J Heil, Pursued: God’s relentless pursuit and a drug addict’s journey to finding purpose

Jessica Marie Baumgartner

Felisa Tan
“Humankind, with all its symbolic capability, seems to always have associated light and height with a higher power—something numinous and holy.

Could it be that deep down inside, we all know that we are part of something far greater than ourselves?”
Felisa Tan, In Search for Meaning

Dean Koontz
Some power has chosen me, called out to me. How often does that happen – to be called to greatness? But consider the cost. Prudence is required.
Dean Koontz, The House at the End of the World

“We could be spiritual without necessarily being religious, but we can’t possibly be religious without being spiritual; otherwise, we would be missing the essence of religion,
regardless of which one we practice.


Without spirituality, there is no connection to the Higher Power, whom we call God or the Universe. And without that precious connection with The Divine, we would be just practicing rituals and traditions set by our ancestors at a particular time in history.”
Claudys Kantara, Rebel Thoughts of Wisdom: Inspiring Conscious Change for Personal & Collective Growth

Joyce Vissell
“Our highest dependence is on God. It is our independence that often keeps us separate from the highest power in the universe. When we feel our complete dependence upon divine love, we feel like a child being held by the most perfect parents.”
Joyce Vissell, Heartfullness: 52 Ways to Open to More Love

Kaveh Akbar
“I don’t even know what my higher power is.”
“That didn’t stop you from getting on your knees with me a year ago and asking it to remove your suffering.”
“Asking what?” Cyrus asked. “What were we even talking to?”
“Who cares?” Gabe answered. “To not-your-own-massive-fucking-ego. That’s the only part that matters.”
Kaveh Akbar, Martyr!
