Points to the Moon

 “Enlightenment is: absolute cooperation with the inevitable.”
Anthony de Mello 

“The greatest learning of the ages lies in accepting life exactly as it comes to us.”
Anthony de Mello, The Prayer Of The Frog, Vol. 1  

“The Master made it his task to destroy systematically every
doctrine, every belief, every concept of the divine, for these
things, which were originally intended as pointers, were now
being taken as descriptions.

He loved to quote the Eastern saying "When the sage points
to the moon, all that the idiot sees is the finger.”
Anthony de Mello

“As one man said, "I got a pretty good education. It took me years to get over it." That's what spirituality is all about, you know: unlearning. Unlearning all the rubbish they taught you.”
Anthony de Mello, Awareness: A de Mello Spirituality Conference in His Own Words
