Zitate zum Thema Kreise und Kreisläufe / Circles

Zitate allgemein

• Euch ist aufgefallen, dass alles, was ein Indianer tut, sich in Kreisen vollzieht. Das liegt daran, weil die Kräfte der Welt auch in Kreisen wirken, und alles beflissen ist, rund zu sein. Der Himmel ist rund, und wie ich gehört habe, ist die Erde rund wie eine Kugel, genauso wie die Sterne. Der Wind entfaltet seine größte Kraft in Wirbeln. Die Vögel bauen ihre Nester kreisrund, denn sie haben dieselbe Religion wie wir. Die Sonne geht in einem Kreis auf und wieder unter. Der Mond vollzieht es ebenso, und beide sind rund. Sogar der Wechsel der Jahreszeiten bildet einen großen Kreis und kehrt immer wieder dorthin zurück, wo er begann. Das Leben des Menschen ist ein Kreis von Kindheit zu Kindheit. Und so ist es mit Allem, worin die Macht sich regt. Black Elk [BW 499] (1863-1950) nordamerikanischer Medizinmann [Wichasha Wakan], Ältester der Oglala-Lakota-Sioux-Indianer, katholischer Katechist, Pine-Ridge-Reservation, Süd-Dakota

 

• Alle Menschen sind Geister, die auf dieser Welt nur zu Besuch sind. Und alle Geister sind ewige Wesen.
  Alle Begegnungen sind Erfahrungen, und alle Erfahrungen sind ewige Verbindungen.
  Die 'Wahren Menschen' schließen den Kreis einer jeden Erfahrung. Weisheit der Aboriginals (AUS)

 

• Wir leben noch immer in einer 'Entweder-Oder'-Kultur, nicht in einer 'Sowohl-als-auch'-Kultur. Wir achten noch immer auf Rangfolgen, statt uns zu vernetzen. Statt eine zirkuläre Weltsicht zu vertreten, betrachten wir das Leben noch immer aus hierarchischer Sicht. Tatsächlich haben wir im Lauf der menschlichen Geschichte größtenteils anders gelebt. Es ging um Verbundenheit, nicht um Rangordnungen. Der Kreis war das Paradigma der Gesellschaft. Gloria Steinem (*1934) führende US-amerikanische Feministin, Journalistin, Autorin, @katiecouric: A Woman's World?, US-amerikanischer TV-Sender CBS NEWS, Interviewerin Katie Couric, YouTube film, Minute 37:29, eingestellt 22. Juni 2010

 

• Im Kreis zeigt sich das ABSOLUTE, ohne Form, Farbe, weitere Eigenschaften, das buchstäbliche NICHTS, es begegnet uns auf unbewusster Ebene beim Eintritt in die Kathedrale.
  - In der sperrigen, quadratischen Raute erleben wir das Symbol der Materie, unser schicksalhaftes Geworfensein in die materielle Welt,
  […] "Quadratur des Kreises" […] im Altarraum in der Form des Rechtecks (symbolisch für das letzte Abendmahl stehend; Jesus inmitten der 12 Apostel ist ein Sinnbild für die Einheit des Lebens in allem Geschaffenen: Der EINE GEIST drückt sich in allen 12 Tierkreiszeichen aus).
  Wer sich länger meditierend auf die Symbole einlässt, kann tatsächlich intuitiv erleben, dass Kreis und Raute in dieser Form "dem inneren Sinn nach" im Rechteck verschmelzen.

Wachsende Ringe

Ich lebe mein Leben in wachsenden Ringen, die sich über die Dinge ziehn.
Ich werde den letzten vielleicht nicht vollbringen, aber versuchen will ich ihn.
Ich kreise um Gott, um den uralten Turm, und ich kreise jahrtausendelang;
Und ich weiß noch nicht: bin ich ein Falke, ein Sturm oder ein großer Gesang.
Rainer Maria Rilke, deutscher Dichter

Zitate (engl.) allgemein

Very often one has illusions about the nature of reality. They have to be let go also. That there is a good and a bad, a desirable and undesirable, that is all in your mind. So you realize that the sun shines and then the clouds come up and then the rain falls. The grass grows up and dies, the stock market goes up and down, age comes and goes, people arise and leave. So you see there is the ebb and flow and if one is at this part of the cycle there is no point in crying about it, because the cycle will cycle itself out. David R. Hawkins, Sedona Seminar Devotion: The Way to God Through the Heart, DVD 1 of 3, track 5, approx. minutes 38:00-39:00, 27. September 2002   There is the ebb and flow and if one is at this part of the cycle there is no point in crying about it, because the cycle will cycle itself out. And by surrendering oneself to whatever is cycling up is how one disappears it eventually. You disappear it by choosing to be with it and letting go wanting to change it as it arises. To do that particular technique means to do it continuously, no matter what, non-stop. […] So then, one surrenders everything that stands in the way of the Presence. The Presence is so obvious, so startling and so overwhelming that there is no question about it. It is profound. It is total. It is all encompassing, totally overwhelming, totally transforming and completely unmistakable. David R. Hawkins, Sedona Seminar Devotion: The Way to God Through the Heart, DVD 2 of 3, minute 0:34:00-0:45:00, 27. September 2002   There would be no point to this incarnation if the future could be predicted. This is a world of karmic opportunity. That is why it is so valuable. It is a recycling center. There is free will and karma. There would be no point in spiritual work if you could tell the future. David R. Hawkins, Sedona Seminar God, Religion and Spirituality, 3 DVD set, 10. December 2005   All karmic cycles are linear. They are about a certain energy somewhere and when you have completed it, it is done. You have the option of being of service on the other side. David R. Hawkins, Sedona Satsang Q&A, 2 CD set, 13. September 2006

 

• Everything I see, hear, touch, feel, taste, speak, think, imagine, is completing a perfect circle God has drawn. Meister Eckhart Eckhart of Hochheim [LoC 705] (1260-1328) German mystic, Dominican theologist, philosopher

 

• The sacred hoop of my people was one of many hoops that made one circle, wide as daylight and as starlight, and in the center grew one mighty flowering tree to shelter all the children of one mother and one father. And I saw that it was holy. Black Elk (1863-1950) Oglala Sioux, medicine elder (spiritual leader), Black Elk Speaks, 1932, told by John Neihardt, 1961

• We’re at the end of a cycle. All of you have known this since childhood. The Hindus call it the Kali Yuga, the dark age. At the end of a cycle, Shiva, the Hindu lord of death, dances. At the end of a cycle, certain energetic configurations go away and others come into being. Lucia René, US American mystic, ordained Buddhist monk, author, spiritual teacher, woman's activist, Unplugging the Patriarchy. A Mystical Journey into the Heart of a New Age, Crown Chakra Publishing, 1st edition, 21. December 2009

 

• If we think of ourselves as circles, our goal is completion. [...] [I]f we think of work structures as circles [...] progress means mutual support and connectedness.

• Many of the Native American tribes (i.e. the Cherokee), the original cultures (the Dalits in India, the Kwei and the San in southern Africa) followed the paradigm is the circle not the hierarchy. Many of the native languages don't have gender articles.

• We're still living in an 'either-or' culture, not in an 'and' culture. We're still ranking instead of linking. We still have a hierarchical view of life instead of a circle. And actually for most of human history we've lived the other way. It's been about linking, not ranking. The circle was the paradigm of society. Gloria Steinem gloriasteinem.com (*1934) leading US American feminist of the new women's movement, visionary and political activist, writer, journalist, @katiecouric: A Woman's World?, presented by US American TV station CBS NEWS, YouTube film, minute 37:29, posted 22.

• The circle means resolution of conflict. The circle symbolizes Reality while the diameter symbolizes illusion [ego mind]. Video presentation by Willem de Swart, B.Sc.

• Insofar as cycles are meaningful, all science that has been developed in the absence of cycle knowledge is inadequate and partial. Thus, if cyclic forces are real, any theory of economics, or sociology, or history, or medicine, or climatology that ignores non-chance rhythms is manifestly incomplete, as medicine was before the discovery of germs. Edward R. Dewey (1895-1978) US American economist, expert on cyclical movements in economics and other fields, Cycles Magazine, About Cycles Research Institute, Cycles Research Institute for the Interdisciplinary Study of Cycles, July 1967

 

• The same road goes both up and down. The beginning of a circle is also its end. Heraclitus of Ephesus (ca. 535-475 BC) pre-Socratic Ancient Greek philosopher

 

• If these cyclic forces are real, there is a much greater degree of interrelationship within nature than was previously realized, since the same cycles appear in many different natural and social sciences. The implications are one of wholeness instead of the emphasis we so often see upon smaller and smaller sections of knowledge. Edward R. Dewey (1895-1978) economist, studied cycles in economics and other fields, Cycles Magazine, About Cycles Research Institute, Cycles Research Institute for the Interdisciplinary Study of Cycles, July 1967

 

• I live my life in big circles, that surround all things, that circle around all that is. Maybe I will not complete the last circle, but i will attempt it. Rainer Maria Rilke (1875-1926) Bohemian-Austrian poet

 

• Begin at the beginning and go on till you come to the end; then stop. Lewis Carroll [around LoC 420] (1832-1898) English writer, mathematician, logician, Anglican deacon, photographer, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland [LoC 420]
