Plotinus
“When we look outside of that on which we depend we ignore our unity; looking outward we see many faces; look inward and all is one head. If a man could but be turned about, he would see at once God and himself and the All.”
Plotinus, The Enneads

Nisargadatta Maharaj
“Whatever happens, happens to you by you, through you; you are the creator, enjoyer and destroyer of all you perceive.”
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

Emil M. Cioran
“I would like to be free, totaly free... free like an aborted child.”
Emil Cioran, On the Heights of Despair

Rajiv Malhotra
“A classical concept in Hinduism has been that a true proposition has to be consistent with sruti, yukti (reason/logic) and anubhava.”
Rajiv Malhotra, Indra's Net: Defending Hinduism's Philosophical Unity

René Guénon
“Indeed, some of the problems commonly engaging the attention of philosophical thought appear to be deprived, not only of all importance, but of any meaning as well; a host of problems arise resting solely upon some ambiguity or upon a confusion of points of view, problems that only exist in fact because they are badly expressed, and that normally should not arise at all. In most cases therefore, it would in itself be sufficient to set these problems forth correctly in order to cause them to disappear, were it not that philosophy has an interest in keeping them alive, since it thrives largely upon ambiguities.”
René Guénon, Introduction to the Study of the Hindu Doctrines
