“...there is no real person whose embodiment plays no role in meaning, whose meaning is purely objective and defined by the external world, and whose language can fit the external world with no significant role played by mind, brain, or body. Because our conceptual systems grow out of our bodies, meaning is grounded in and through our bodies. Because a vast range of our concepts are metaphorical, meaning is not entirely literal and the classical correspondence theory of truth is false.”
George Lakoff
“What is a great spiritual practitioner? A person who lives always in the presence of his or her own true self, someone who has found and who uses continually the springs and sources of profound inspiration. As the modern English writer Lewis Thompson wrote: 'Christ, supreme poet, lived truth so passionately that every gesture of his, at once pure Act and perfect Symbol, embodies the transcendent.'To embody the transcendent is why we are here.”
Sogyal Rinpoche, The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying“When we ourselves are not truly in a place of peace and we go out and try to create peace in the world, it becomes a fragmented and sometimes even corrupt form of peace. This happens because only peace can create peace, and unless we are the embodiment of it, we are projecting our bias of what peace should look like onto other people’s lives. To be at peace means to accept reality as is. Embodying peace is, in fact, the very essence of what it means to be free, as well as offering this freedom to others.”
Alaric Hutchinson, Living Peace“Nezhdanov's heart began to beat violently and he lowered his eyes involuntarily. This girl, who had fallen in love with a homeless wretch like him, who trusted him, who was ready to follow him, to go with him towards one and the same goal — this wonderful girl — Marianna — at that moment was, for Nezhdanov, the embodiment of everything good and just on earth; the embodiment of that love, that of a family, sister or wife, which he had not experienced; the embodiment of homeland, happiness, struggle and freedom.”
Ivan Turgenev, Virgin Soil“For at some point, each of us will be asked to embody what we feel and know.”
Chang-rae Lee, On Such a Full Sea“One can become ‘Embodiment of Love’ [Prem Swaroop], only when there is no my-ness [mamata].”
Dada Bhagwan“People will listen to you when you become the ‘Embodiment of Love’ [Prem Swaroop]. When can you become the ‘Embodiment of Love’? When you do not look for laws or rules”
When you do not see anyone at fault.“What you seem to forget is that I'm not one of the embodiments of evil. I'm one of the embodiments of fear. That means I know what makes evil quake in the light of the sun.”
Emily Kirby, The Silver Codex“Be an embodiment of the petition, thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven”
