QUOTES

15:56 "No religion teaches anything except that God is the most compassionate and the most loving and one of the biggest lies we have ever heard from organized religion is that God's love is conditional."

20:04 "When a Sufi walks into a place, a room, where things are broken, what do you think will he do? Will he walk back out and find a room where everything is all nice and fixed, or fix the broken things? That was my answer."

24:01 "As our vibration changes and as we put our work and we build that presence within ourselves and our vibration changes, we notice that slowly, slowly things, the people around us, change."

27:56 "Spirituality is when we work on ourselves and when we heal ourselves and when we grow as human beings. That's a spiritual path. A mystical path is there is no me. There is only God. So what is it that I'm fixing? I'm already healed."

32:07 "The Creator says, in Islam, in Quran, I do not look at your shape, at your form, at your color. I look at what you're carrying in the deepest part of your heart. Are you carrying love? Or are you carrying fear and anger and judgment?"
