Salvation is worth working for. it is worth a man's going round the world on his hands and knees, climbing its mountains, crossing its valleys, swimming its rivers, going through all manner of hardship in order to attain it. but we do not get it in that way. it is to him who believes.

More From Dwight L. Moody

Before practicing meditation, we see that mountains are mountains. when we start to practice, we see that mountains are no longer mountains. after practicing a while, we see that mountains are again mountains. now the mountains are very free. our mind is still with the mountains, but it is no longer bound to anything.
Practice Meditation Mind
I've known rivers: i've known rivers ancient as the world and older than the flow of human blood in human veins. my soul has grown deep like the rivers. i bathed in the euphrates when dawns were young. i built my hut near the congo and it lulled me to sleep. i looked upon the nile and raised the pyramids above it. i heard the singing of the mississippi when abe lincoln went down to new orleans, and i've seen its muddy bosom turn all golden in the sunset. i've known rivers: ancient, dusky rivers. my soul has grown deep like the rivers.

The famous zen parable about the master for whom, before his studies, mountains were only mountains, but during his studies mountains were no longer mountains, and afterward mountains were again mountains could be interpreted as an alleory about [the perpetual paradox that when one is closest to a destination one is also the farthest).
Journey Hiking Mountain
The secret of the mountain is that the mountains simply exist, as i do myself: the mountains exist simply, which i do not. the mountains have no "meaning," they are meaning; the mountains are. the sun is round. i ring with life, and the mountains ring, and when i can hear it, there is a ringing that we share. i understand all this, not in my mind but in my heart, knowing how meaningless it is to try to capture what cannot be expressed, knowing that mere words will remain when i read it all again, another day.
Heart Knowing Secret
An ancient buddha said, “mountains are mountains; waters are waters.” these words do not mean mountains are mountains; they mean mountains are mountains.
Mean Water Mountain
The myriad valleys could have arisen anywhere on the landscape. the current positions are quite accidental. if we could repeat the experiment, we might obtain no valleys at all, or a completely different system. yet we now stand at the shore line contemplating the fine spacing of valleys and their even contact with the sea. how easy it is to be misled and to assume that no other landscape could possibly have arisen.

Everyone has faith in god though everyone does not know it. for everyone has faith in himself and that multiplied to the nth degree is god. the sum total of all that lives is god. we may not be god, but we are of god, even as a little drop of water is of the ocean.

When this is over...we will got to the rainforest, or a beach as white as bone. we will eat grapes from the vine, we will swim with sea turtles, we will walk miles on cobblestone streets. we will laugh and talk and confess. we will.

I had removed my patent leather shoes after a while, for they foundered badly in the sand. it pleased me to think they would be perched there on the silver log, pointing out to sea, like a sort of soul-compass, after i was dead.
