Talk:Quotes About Honesty

Wisdom from Marshall Vian Summers

"For Knowledge to arise within us, the believing surface mind must become free, honest and open, which is no small thing." 9/30/2023

"Taking the Steps to Knowledge is about building experience. Its ideas are important for clarification and setting a direction, but the experience is the proof of the power of Knowledge, especially if you act on it. This experience can emerge in many different ways both subtle and strong. You will not feel it every day for that is not necessary. Over time this experience becomes the reference point within you and barometer regarding where to go, what to do and how to wisely respond to others, both friendly or not. Now instead of asking Knowledge questions and waiting for answers, you are going to your inner reference point beneath the surface of your mind and waiting to see if there is a response there. Here the need must be real and you must be honest and ready to deal with it." 5/7/2022

"Accepting that you fear God is an important realization. It is part of becoming really honest. When you realize, that instead of making Separation more real for you, God is here to free you from it and enable you to find real purpose within it, you will begin to feel this fear which is entirely natural for you to feel. When you can see that there is no punishment in God, then this fear can finally change into awe, gratitude and the return to relationship for you." 11/20/2021

“Who you are with will determine what you can know and your ability to follow what you know. This means that who you are with will determine whether you can really be honest with yourself and whether you can recognize your true opportunities in life and have the courage and strength to follow them. Who you are with will determine whether you will discover your greater purpose and whether you can express it and prepare for it accordingly.” THE ONE BOOK; Love and Relationships 3/13/2021

"If you are going to be really honest, you have to be willing and able to face and evaluate your fears which will come up. Here experiencing Knowledge may free you from little fears, but then reveal greater ones within you." 2/27/2021
