Quotes About Energy

Education -- whether its object be children or adults, individuals or an entire people, or even oneself -- consists in creating motives. To show what is beneficial, what is obligatory, what is good -- that is the task of education. Education concerns itself with the motives for effective action. For no action is ever carried out in the absence of motives capable of supplying the indispensable amount of energy for its execution.

Base motives have in them more energy than noble ones. Problem: in what way can the energy belonging to the base motives be transferred to the noble ones?

The object of an action and the level of the energy by which it is carried out are distinct from each other. A certain thing must be done. But where is the energy to be drawn for its accomplishment? A virtuous action can lower a man if there is not enough energy available on the same level.

There is a transcendent energy whose source is from heaven that flows into us as soon as we desire it. It is the true energy; it executes actions through the mediation of our souls and our bodies. We should ask for this food. The moment we ask for it and even by the fact that we ask, we know that God wants to give it to us.

Thus the motivation, energy and drive for holiness are all found in the reality and power of God's grace in Christ. And so if I am to make any progress in sanctification, the place where I must always begin is the gospel of the mercy of God to me in Christ Jesus.

There is a kind of orthodoxy in which the several loci of systematic theology, or stages of redemptive history, are all in place, but that lacks the life of the whole, just as arms, legs, torso, head, feet, eyes, ears, nose, and mouth may all be present—while the body as a whole lacks energy and perhaps life itself. The form of godliness is not the same as its power.

I must say I'm not very fond of oratory that's so full of energy it hasn't any room for facts.

Nothing could exceed his energy when the working fit was upon him: but now and again a reaction would seize him, and for days on end he would lie upon the sofa in the sitting- room, hardly uttering a word or moving a muscle from morning to night. On these occasions I have noticed such a dreamy, vacant expression in his eyes, that I might have suspected him of being addicted to the use of some narcotic, had not the temperance and cleanliness of his whole life forbidden such a notion.

I'm not sure about whether I shall go. I am the most incurably lazy devil that ever stood in shoe leather -- that is, when the fit is on me, for I can be spry enough at times. ~ Sherlock Holmes

Tut! Tut!' cried Sherlock Holmes. 'You must act, man, or you are lost. Nothing but energy can save you. This is no time for despair.

the more you practice getting quiet, the quicker you'll sense your vibes.

If your intuitive channel is open but your tuner isn't dialed to your Higher Self, you may accidentally pick up on that negative energy without even knowing it. You may unconsciously tune in to another's anxiety, depression, or fear

We are here to learn to create by raising our vibration and becoming a clear channel of focus and intention.

Imagination is the substance that creates life.

Vibes are energetic waves of subtle energy that arise from several places, some from inside your body and some from the world around you. All this makes up your vibes. Intuitive messages come from your heart and gut. Others come through the back of your head, on your arms, the back of your neck, even in your throat. These waves of energy reverberate throughout your entire physical being, sending you messages.

Shifting your energy from an overactive mental activity to a grounding physical activity often jump-starts your creativity as well.

The best protection against negative energy is to surround yourself and others with unconditional love and acceptance. More often than not, underneath a person's negative vibes is an unconscious need for love and reassurance. The negativity they put out is just a very poor way to ask for it. Knowing this, you can be proactive and send people good vibes and lots of love in advance. Doing this changes the vibe before you run into negativity.

Keep nothing that doesn't leave you with a feeling of light, positive energy. Be ruthless in your assessment of whether you should keep something—and when you do eliminate it, be quick about it. Don't second-guess yourself.

As soon as your physical space is clear, you'll have to address the energy suckers. Take an inventory of where you're stuck, and don't get discouraged. Notice all the negative attitudes, resentments, dramas, and old vendettas you carry and write them down.

Once you start to trust your vibes, you begin to realize that we are more than physical beings who are separate from one another and limited to physical space and time. Instead, you begin to understand that we are spiritual beings, and whether our ego knows it or not, we are psychically connected and communicate with one another on different energetic levels—sharing thoughts, feelings, ideas, beliefs, and information all the time. This is known as telepathy.

Spiritual law says that you receive what you give times 10, so choose to put out bright, loving energy to the world. Despite appearances to the contrary, it will return. The more openhearted you are, the quicker the telepathic reception will be.

Telepathy is the most accessible of our six-sensory skills: Everyone is mentally talking to everyone else all the time, and everyone is tuning in. You're in telepathic chat rooms every second, whether you know it or not. If you pay attention to what crosses your mind, you'll see what I mean.

To avoid this "psychic contamination," stay focused and committed to your own priorities and goals. The more defined your aims are, the more likely you will avoid the riffraff and not wander into energy that doesn't belong to you, serve you, or possibly derail you. The stronger your intentions and priorities, the better your intuitive GPS, as well as your energetic boundaries, will become, and the more insulated you'll be from any unwanted influences.

Those among us who have wide-open intuitive channels but no filters to decide what gets in and what gets out can become highly saturated with energy we don't want to experience.
