~Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche
The main image of Dharmadhatu is that of space - the 'space of all things' within which all phenomena manifest, abide and dissolve back into. This is similar to physical space, which is like a container within which the remaining four elements appear, abide and disappear. These four elements do not come out of any other source; they emerge from space itselt. They do not remain anywhere else other than within space; neither do they go anywhere outside of space.
~Frithjof Schuon
Love seems to be the only element capable of uniting the soul to God, for it alone is desire of possession or union—a desire whose sublimation can engender the greatest sacrifices—whereas knowledge, as seen from this point of view, appears on the contrary as a static element having no operative or unitive virtue.
