#243 - I once believed in spiritual moments, until I came to understand the moments of the spirit.

 

#16 - Instead of looking to blame someone for the past, find someone that will take responsibility for the future.

 

#208 - Man is a creature who has allowed the issues of his own mind to spill forth into the physical world where these misunderstandings manifest themselves in flesh and form. The systems of Elemental Nature cannot compete against the chaos of Man's hidden domain. Only by dealing with his own daemons, can Man reverse this process and return nature to her former beauty and spirit. In this way, the battle begins and ends in the minds and hearts of all men.

 

#154 - A holiday is often a time spent away from memory, the caretaker of objects, in attempts to experience more deep, intense and meaningful moments of being.

 

 

#176 - The secret of FEAR is that it is memory dependent. Without a past, you cannot fear the future, and without a future you cannot fear the past. Fear then, exists only as a result of imagined cognition and not of the reality of the flowing moment.

 

#59 - Sometimes the things that don't talk, are far more real than the things that do.

 

#46 - Most people don't want to understand truth, they just want to own it. By holding something in memory like this they come to believe that they possess some valuable object that inherently transfers value to its owner. Little do they know that truth is weightless and has the viscosity of mercury allowing it to take the form of its container, but not necessarily affect its momentum. The mistake made by those who have allowed truth to slip between their fingers is the belief that it lies somewhere in the concrete hallways of the past or vast oceans of yet unclaimed lands in the future.

 

#211 - Time in the general sense, is a measurement. Since all measurements are an approximation of an invented method of memory allocation for the purposes of cognition, they are not real, but are generalised ideas sculpted from the available language of symbolic representation. Age then - is no more real than is a metre or a mile, it is a unit of measure that only exists as a comparison to other units of measure. So the next time you are told to 'act your age', remember that it will have to be an act.

 

 

#11 - Man can be described as the resulting encapsulation of pi with an onion.

#145 - It is a great shame of Man that he seems intent on finding all that is unique and rare, and making it conform to a general standard approved by those who will never know how words mean.

 

#40 - A hungry mind is an alert mind. Satisfaction then, breeds stupidity.

 

#30 - Both the past and the future exist only in the mind. The concept of time having a beginning and an end therefore is meaningless outside of inspection.

 

 

#131 - Behind the beginning and the end of unconsciousness, is a place without a beginning or an end. It is the truth before description.

#31 - Religion says that it controls reality through the help of a powerful book of great power and other things that no one else understands. Feel more and think less.

Science says that it controls reality through the help of powerful machines and other things that no one else understands. Think more and feel less.

Government says that it controls reality through the help of systems and laws that no one else understands. Accept more and choose less.

As religion imposes order onto chaos, it takes itself further from reality.

As science imposes chaos onto order, it takes itself further from reality.

As government imposes culture onto life, it takes us further from our selves..

 

#77 - There is only one generally acceptable moment - that of the here and now. It is the moment bubble of flux that we exist in for the duration of this sensory world of being, between the past of what was, and the emergence of what will be. This is why death is an illusion - since we only experience either life or after-life (death). Just like life, it is not the end of something, but more the beginning of something else. (Thanks to T.Mckenna)

 

#191 - How ironic that as technology advances, human intelligence diminishes. All technology depends on the slavery of its users, and always - always comes at the cost of freedom, health, awareness and truth. How simple then, the message that wisdom springs out of self awareness, self reliance and self expression. True enlightenment then, is not just always within reach, it is closer than you think.

 

#216 - To consider the ripples on the water more important than the falling stone that made them, is to mistake the echo of life as more important than the truth of it.

#240 - Art that is stationary, is a snapshot of a living moment. In this way, it moves us while it stays still. This movement in us is called E-motion and its chaotic nature helps us grow through meaning. The awakening effects of this art are called Em-pathy.

Art that moves, is an engram of a past moment. In this way, it moves while we stay still. This motion is called A-notion and its ordered nature makes us remember through habits. The sleeping effects of this art are called A-pathy.

 

#2 - He that brings himself to kill a man is no less than a destroyer of whole worlds.

 

 

#32 - Faith, just like fear, really is its own reward.

 

#149 - If every country in the world worked towards enriching its neighbors, traveling from place to place would be like never leaving home.

 

#260 - Above and below are the same place, with any difference amounting to the enigma of perspective.

 

#126 - The only way to get something done is to choose to do it. The act of choice opens clear the way to the act. When one allows a choice to be made by someone or something else, the way will be littered with doubts, hopes and fears. When life is one of choosing, it may open up to be much less of one thing and more of another.

 

#90 - The most ironic thing about the unknown, is that it remains unknown because it is ignored, just as easily as ants are ignored underfoot.

 

 

#105 - Be careful what you wish for. Dreams have a way of coming true.

 

#267 - All people are artists. The reason more people do not create, is that all people are also critics.

 

#241 - Sleep may very well be nature's way of helping us to forget or let go of a past that no longer exists, and a future we cannot possibly imagine.

 

#299 - Clarity releases a soul from the trappings of perspective.

 

 

#121 - The only thing that can keep us from truth is ourselves. Society convinces many that truth does not exist and so fantasies are plenty. In the end, it is only ourselves that we fool.

 

#261 - Uncertainty can be a nice place to be, a safe haven of sorts to be preferred over certainty in most situations. Those that are certain of something are bound to await an eternity for that certainty to end.

 

#335 - Don't be where you want to be, be where you are. Be a where instead of a what.

 

#388 - The more objects handled by the mind on a regular basis, the more mechanical becomes the person. The less objects handled by the mind on a regular basis, the more personable becomes the machinery.

 

 

#281 - Truth never disappears. It is you that spirals away from it.

 

#391 - Where does the ground end and the sky begin?
