Spirituality is the theme of allspirit, and spiritual writing, poetry, quotations and song lyrics can all be found in abundance. From Advaita to Zen, ancient to contemporary, there is something here for everybody. Please navigate your way around the site by using the left navigation bar.
The latest additions to Allspirit can be found on the what's new? page. If you are looking for more from a particular path or author, I encourage you to join the Allspirit yahoogroup and join in the discussion there.
Sacred Texts from various traditions, including the Gospel of Thomas, Bhagavad Gita, Hsin Hsin Ming, Tao Te Ching and several Buddhist Sutras can be found on the Sacred Texts page. Writings from contemporary mystics are listed on the Spiritual Writings page.
Check the poetry index for a list of poets, who include Rumi, Hafiz, Rabindranath Tagore, William Blake, Rainer Maria Rilke, Thich Nhat Hanh and Anna Akhmatova. There are also some contemporary poets, including Hydeh Aubon, Elaine Upton, Nirmala, Steve Toth, Yosy Flug and Silent Lotus.
There are also now literature and philosophy sections, and Wilhelm's I Ching.
In the morning when you get up generate a heartfelt intention to be in accord with bodhicitta. In the evening when going to bed, investigate whether what you did was in accord with or in opposition to bodhicitta.
