1 " The brighter the light, the darker the shadow. "
― Dipa Sanatani , The Little Light (The Guardians of the Lore #1)
2 " No soul- no matter how great or how small- can avoid pain. Sometimes the greater the destiny, the greater the amount of pain. Knowing that nothing lasts forever. That all things must come to pass. "
3 " No soul- no matter how great or how small- can avoid pain. Sometimes the greater the destiny, the greater the amount of pain. Knowing that nothing lasts forever. That all things must come to pass.” Havah says to Mercury. "
4 " Nothing in this world is ever created or destroyed, it can only be transformed. "
5 " Humanity evolves because of those who are unafraid to chart their own course. "
6 " It would do you some good to appreciate the reality beyond what we can see and perceive. And just because you cannot perceive something, doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. "
7 " There are battles that can’t be won. "
8 " Beautiful gems can emerge from dirt. Struggle can teach you self-discipline and resilience. "
9 " I had so much to learn back then. I thought that being a man meant putting yourself first and bullying others into following you, no matter what the cost. Now I understand that being a man means taking responsibility, and taking charge as a leader, so that others will follow you of their own volition. --Mars from The Little Light "
10 " Life can be only lived forwards and truly understood backwards. "
11 " Unlike beauty and loveliness that fades with the passing of time, nothing and no one can ever take our wisdom and inner strength away from us. "
12 " Unfortunately, many souls do not step up to their soul task. After all, once the soul inhabits a human body it grows fearful of the unknown. Instead of embracing its true purpose, the soul runs from its own destiny, thinking that if it avoids it long enough those longings, those yearnings will just disappear. Some souls slip further and further into the abyss until they have nowhere left to go. "
13 " To be born is to know suffering. To know pain. To know fear. To know deep yearning that can never be satisfied. "
14 " The Universe can exist without intelligence. it cannot exist without compassion. "
15 " This is how it has been since the beginning. Everything in the world of matter has its equal and opposite counterpart. "
16 " If the human experience is born of compassion” the Little Light says angrily, “why does the Great Light curse humanity to suffer in the most unspeakable ways? Why is there so much grief, pain, and tragedy in the world?” Ketu gives a sardonic smile. The questions are easy to answer, but difficult to fully comprehend. It is one thing to gain knowledge, and another to experience it and fully understand its true meaning. "
17 " Even a warrior Goddess must accept that there are battles that can’t be won. "
18 " Rahu says, “You know how humanity suffers, yet you know this suffering is necessary. You understand how humanity will never change unless it experiences great darkness. You know full well how hard it is for light to fight the shadows, for one cannot exist without the other. "
19 " Do you promise to watch over me?” the Little Light asks. "
20 " How souls can hold onto each other and refuse to go; how souls can attach themselves and leave tiny pieces of their own light in other Little Lights. "
