Quotes:
“Humans begin their existence in wonder…It is the very core of our being.”
“…we must remember who we are, sentient and limitless beings, but ones purposely placed on the rind of the planet swirling in space.”
“Most of us live in encapsulated lives,…We are not really aware we are on an earth … moving among other planets. We have not had an experiential awareness that we are actually living on the Earth. We have to have a real experience, not just an intellectual experience.”
“We insist that only material things are real, but where there is nothingness, elementary particles will emerge….prayer, meditation and contemplation are the methods humans can employ to tap into this vital resource of creative nothingness….To do that one has to smash the ego, make sacrifices, and commune with a sense of alternate reality. If we don’t, we will be guilty of passing on our mediocrity.”
“It seems to be what the universe wants. We are being called into this new level of consciousness to free ourselves from our small, exploiting, ego-centred consciousness.”
