1 " Knowledge, and then love of G-d, is thehomecoming all long for, the banquet or feastthat has been long promised. "
― Edward Weiss , The Golden Prayer: A Path to Salvation
2 " Acceptance of necessity opens the door to the eternal where there is nothing to do because all is already done. "
3 " We have been striving for the things of the world and in this striving, have thrown ourselves into exile. When enough pain is experienced over a lifetime, people ask the perennial question; 'What must I do to be saved?' They must accomplish the reversal and turn towards G-d. There is no where else to go. No other path to take. "
4 " The purpose of prayer is transformation; we go from a creature that relies on the world to one who depends on G-d. "
5 " G-D REMAINS HIDDEN, not because of mystery or intention of hiding, but because of our limited perception. We see or perceive only in fragments and have a mutilated, distorted picture of the whole "
6 " The land flowing with milk and honey is an eternal land "
7 " Prayer is the water that chisels away the rock of self importance. "
8 " To move from bondage to freedom requires a shift in viewpoint; the purpose of prayer is to affect this shift; to take you from someone in need to someone who knows all needs are met in G-d. "
9 " Those who depend on G-d take the burden off of themselves and are liberated. Those who rely only on themselves make themselves G-d and carry the weight of the world; they are lost to sharing in the whole, lost to being a part of it all because they take unto themselves what is not theirs. "
10 " The battle is always between those who desire to be happy in the world and those who desire to be free - yet the only freedom that can be found is the freedom found in knowing G-d. Let us begin "
11 " It is the desire to appropriate, to take unto yourself what is not yours that causes the horrible feeling of separation. "
12 " Prayer is the water that chisels away the rock of self-importance. "
13 " The freedom of G-d lies in HIs infinite Nature. "
