Return to the Source

Jan Van Ruysbroek, "the great Flemish mystic", said:

Knowledge of ourselves teaches us from whence we come, where we are and where we are going. We come from God and we are in exile.


I lifted this quote from The Unfolding Self: Varieties of Transformative Experience by Ralph Metzner


This theme comes up from all kinds of places, including the Gospel of Thomas.
