Elizabeth Gilbert Quotes About Soul

• Una verdadera alma gemela es un espejo, la persona que te muestra todo lo que te está frenando, la persona que te llama la atención para que puedas cambiar tu vida.

  Elizabeth Gilbert

  Almas gemelas, espejos, llamas

  Elizabeth Gilbert (2009). "Come, reza, ama: One Woman's Search for Everything", p.157, Bloomsbury Publishing

• Tu problema es que no entiendes lo que significa esa palabra. La gente cree que un alma gemela es tu pareja perfecta, y eso es lo que todo el mundo quiere. Pero una verdadera alma gemela es un espejo, la persona que te muestra todo lo que te está frenando, la persona que te llama la atención para que puedas cambiar tu vida. Una verdadera alma gemela es probablemente la persona más importante que jamás conocerás, porque derriba tus muros y te despierta de una bofetada. ¿Pero vivir con un alma gemela para siempre? No. Demasiado doloroso. Las almas gemelas llegan a tu vida sólo para revelarte otra capa de ti mismo, y luego se van.

  Love, Wall, Mean

• El propósito de un alma gemela es sacudirte, destrozar un poco tu ego, mostrarte tus obstáculos y adicciones, romperte el corazón para que entre nueva luz, desesperarte y descontrolarte tanto que tengas que transformar tu vida, y luego presentarte a tu maestro espiritual.

• Faith is walking face-first and full-speed into the dark. If we truly knew all the answers in advance as to the meaning of life and the nature of God and the destiny of our souls, our belief would not be a leap of faith and it would not be a courageous act of humanity; it would just be... a prudent insurance policy.

  Faith, Courage, Dark

• When I tried this morning, after an hour or so of unhappy thinking, to dip back into my meditation, I took a new idea with me: compassion. I asked my heart if it could please infuse my soul with a more generous perspective on my mind's workings. Instead of thinking that I was a failure, could I perhaps accept that I am only a human being--and a normal one, at that?

  Elizabeth Gilbert

  Morning, Heart, Thinking

  Elizabeth Gilbert (2010). “The Complete Elizabeth Gilbert: Eat, Pray, Love; Committed; The Last American Man; Stern Men & Pilgrims”, p.151, A&C Black

• Maybe [artistry] doesn't have to be quite so full of anguish if you never happened to believe, in the first place, that the most extraordinary aspects of your being came from you. But maybe if you just believed that they were on loan to you from some unimaginable source for some exquisite portion of your life to be passed along when you're finished ... it starts to change everything.

• I will tell you why we have these extraordinary minds and souls, Miss Whittaker," he continued, as though he had not heard her. "We have them because there is a supreme intelligence in the universe, which wishes for communion with us. This supreme intelligence longs to be known. It calls out to us. It draws us close to its mystery, and grants us these remarkable minds, in order that we try to reach for it. It wants us to find it. It wants union with us, more than anything.

• What profound reward you must glean from studying the world so closely....Too many people turn away from small wonders, I find. There is so much more potency to be found in detail than generalities, but most souls cannot train themselves to sit still for it.

• It's easy enough to pray when you're in distress but continuing to pray even when your crisis has passed is like a sealing process, helping your soul hold tight to its good attainment.

  Elizabeth Gilbert

  Soul, Helping, Praying

• La búsqueda de Dios es una inversión del orden mundano normal. En la búsqueda de Dios, te alejas de lo que te atrae y nadas hacia lo que te resulta difícil. Abandonas tus hábitos reconfortantes y familiares con la esperanza (¡la mera esperanza!) de que se te ofrecerá algo más grande a cambio de lo que has abandonado... si de verdad conociéramos de antemano todas las respuestas sobre el sentido de la vida y la naturaleza de Dios y el destino de nuestras almas, nuestra creencia no sería un acto de fe y no sería un valiente acto de humanidad; sólo sería... una prudente póliza de seguros.

  Destiny, Order, Swim

• I thought about the relentless thought-processing, soul-devouring machine that is my brain, and wondered how on earth I was ever going to master it. Then I remembered that line from Jaws and couldn't help smiling: 'We're gonna need a bigger boat.

• Así que me levanté e hice el pino en el tejado de mi gurú, para celebrar la noción de liberación. Sentí las tejas polvorientas bajo mis manos. Sentí mi propia fuerza y equilibrio. Sentí la suave brisa nocturna en las palmas de mis pies descalzos. Este tipo de cosas, una parada de manos espontánea, no es algo que pueda hacer un alma fría y azul incorpórea, sino un ser humano. Tenemos manos; podemos pararnos sobre ellas si queremos. Ese es nuestro privilegio. Esa es la alegría de un cuerpo mortal. Y por eso Dios nos necesita. Porque a Dios le encanta sentir las cosas a través de nuestras manos.

• I tried to reassure him with every line about how the world is hard and unfair sometimes, but that it's all OK because he is so loved. He is surrounded by souls who would do anything to help him. And not only that--he has wisdom and patience of his own, buried deep inside his being, which will only reveal themselves over time and will always carry him through any trial. He is a gift from God to all of us.

• What a large number of factors constitute a single human being! How very many layers we operate on, and how very many influences we receive from our minds, our bodies, our histories, our families, our cities, our souls and our lunches!

• Nobody wants to do it - not real change, not soul change, not the painful molecular change required to truly become who you need to be. Nobody ever does real transformation for fun. Nobody ever does it on a dare. You do it only when your back is so far against the wall that you have no choice anymore.

  Elizabeth Gilbert

  Wall, Fun, Real
