Ida Pauline Rolf Quotes

Souls are designed to fit inside a body.

The body is the substance of the stone.

I can say, 'Well, I'm a male. I'm a male human. I'm a medical doctor. I'm an author...' If I go to a religious point of view, I will say, 'I am a soul. I am a spirit.' If I go into science, I will say, 'I am energy. I am light.' But the truth is I have no idea what I am.

Love is the substance of all life. Everything is connected in love, absolutely everything.

On the last analysis, then, love is life. Love never faileth and life never faileth so long as there is love.

All life is a manifestation of the spirit, the manifestation of love.

All the principles of heaven and earth are living inside you. Life itself is truth, and this will never change. Everything in heaven and earth breathes. Breath is the thread that ties creation together.

I don't believe there's an afterlife - but I don't believe there's an end to life. Consciousness goes beyond the bounds of your body.

All material in nature, the mountains and the streams and the air and we, are made of Light which has been spent, and this crumpled mass called material casts a shadow, and the shadow belongs to Light.

There is no such things as God's word on earth. Or if there is it is not to be found in books. -Then where is it to be found?- In love. In the laughter of children. In a gift given. In a life saved. In the quiet of morning. In the dead of night. In the sound of the ocean, or the sound of a car. It can be found in anything, anywhere. It is the fabric of our lives, our feelings, the people we live with, things we know to be real.

What I wear is pants. What I do is live. How I pray is breathe.

Odd how clear it suddenly became, once a person had died, that the body was the very least of him.

I don't think we die. I think our bodies leave, but we can never die. That which is never born, can never die. And that which never changes, can never die.

Love is life. All, everything that I understand, I understand only because I love. Everything is, everything exists, only because I love. Everything is united by it alone. Love is God, and to die means that I, a particle of love, shall return to the general and eternal source.

The mystery is in the body and the way the body works itself into nature.

If you want to find the answers to the Big Questions about your soul, you'd best begin with the Little Answers about your body.

Every breath we draw is a gift of God's love; every moment of existence is a grace.

Love is larger than life.

The breath that sharpens life is life itself.

Love is the wine of existence. When you have taken that, you have taken the most precious drop that there is in the cluster.

If my soul exists without my body I am convinced all my clothes will be loose-fitting
