Famous Dan Desmarques Quotes

“Even though humanity has confused itself with its own mechanics, the transitory fact remains, that knowledge, in any shape or form, comes from books. And more than 99% of all the books ever produced in human history are now, thanks to the internet, available for free, in the public domain, and whenever a computer and electricity are present. This truth, also extensively contributes to the fact that humans are now, for the first time ever, deliberately choosing to remain ignorant.”

“Emotions are very powerful, and our brain is nothing when compared to the heart. The heart has an intelligence of its own. But it is indeed connected to the rest of us, including our mind. So what this means is that our emotions are far more powerful than our reasoning. You know, like when a praying mantis gets his head chopped off by a female after sex; he knows he is going to die, but he still can't help himself and stop it. A large majority of us are like that. We think we are superior to animals, but that only applies to the amount of complexity of our problems. For a large portion of society, self-destruction is inevitable in the process of spiritual self-discovery guided by emotional impulses.”

“A flame can create many shadows and each one will depend on the flame to survive. However, the flame without its shadows loses its meaning, for to enlighten is to create shadows. We then confuse the meaning for its creation, and attach ourselves to the shadows we create, when in fact we should pay attention to the flame creating them. For the flame can create many shadows but the shadows can only be that which the flame allows them to be. There can be many shadows created by a flame but a shadow can only be a shadow.”

“After many years of mind programming ourselves with social beliefs, we end up accepting destiny and becoming what others expect us to be, even though we're unhappy about it. We then come to the realization that self-determinism can only be a choice for those who have self-awareness.”

“All the sounds, words, emotions and memories of previous experiences cannot prepare us enough for the encounters with the unexpected, challenging our values, preconceptions and beliefs. It is then that one is either rewarded for his faith or punished for the lack of it. The ultimate test, however, emerges in the form of what one desires the most hidden beneath the layer of what is simultaneously feared. No one knows the outcome of this invisible battle until its very end. It is when the heart is finally offered to that confrontation that one faces the last gate of his own mortal life, and in doing so, is led to either an immediate rebirth or a slow death.”

“Although many religions have historically been presented as true, the human tendency to resist change has crystallized such groups in thought-forms that also resist change. And that is why even the most supreme religions tend to self-destruct in the hands of the most dedicated followers.”

“Anyone who is proud of his nation, family or job, has already failed in life. Among these, the most admirable personalities pass by, looking at this big garbage of delusional validation, among insane lunatics looking for gold in it, completely unseen, many times while being disrespected. The few that are worthy of respect get it the least. And admiration goes only to the biggest garbage collectors. Insanity is the mainstream on Earth.”

“As much as I would love to take you to where I am at the speed of lightning, you are not ready. Because of that, your fears will transform my life into a hell, and your ignorance will attack me and give me much suffering. And this is why I ask you to read my books. But if you choose not to read them, I cannot do anything for you, as the books prepare you for the journey you may never be ready to take. This journey may seem slow at first and for a long period of time, but only because you are heavy in ignorance and fears. They must disintegrate with wisdom rooted in Truth.”

“As the future is built in the present, and this future is always being shaped and transformed by the present, any imagined or foreseen future is nothing but tomorrow's present. In this sense, it is more important how you observe your world today than what you will do tomorrow. The best decisions are always those which escape the imagination, do not correspond to the plans of the mind, but make perfect sense in a spiritual and emotional context.”

“As the physical body becomes less dense, there is an increasing sensibility and awareness to the subtle elements of the ether which were once unknown to the perceptive senses. The being then becomes knowledgeable of things that to others are not yet part of their reality. This new elevated state leads him to be seen by those others as crazy and out of touch with common sense. For the one who reaches such stage, however, there is an overwhelming sensation of lone wonder, where beauty is found in nothing but an empty garden of extraordinary flowers with different fragrances and colors. To this individual, the world has ceased to exist in its meanings for it is a world of brute ignorance and dark unconsciousness, guided by self-deceptive impulses. He is like a traveler in time stuck in the past. He has evolved but cannot escape the time-line in which he is in. He is blessed while led to think by fools that he is cursed. And the only thing he needs to do, in order to close the gap between his new self and the physical world, consists in looking inwards and appreciate the decadence around him from the perspective of the Observer. Once he can do that, he can be one with the Great Architect and start thinking like a god. In that precise moment, he is freed from any time-line and all the secrets are revealed unto him. His soul becomes boundless and his personality as fluid as water. He can be anything with a burning fire, and nothing like air, at the exact same time; he can love everyone like fertile soil for growth, and no one, as if he was just air; he can be everywhere and nowhere, like darkness, but also attach and detach at will, like light. And he can also have the power to unroot himself from any will produced by any thought that he might or not have chosen to have.”

“Being in a religion is important but you must remember that all religions have limitations, and these limitations put people inside karmic cycles, among which are also the common cycles that unite them, in the same challenges as well as in similar achievements, keeping them attached as a group within the same faith. This is how the mechanics of any religion are formed in order to allow the creation of an everlasting tribe. Without such methodology, a religion would disappear, as so many others did in the past. And yet, the encompassing Truth of the Great Architect is much wider than all this, and much wiser than all religions combined.”

“Beliefs are powerful motivators. You can gather a group of idiots with different viewpoints on the same subject and watch them reach a confident state of mind by gradually agreeing on untruthful conclusions. Or you can find an experienced researcher and doubt his uncommon insights and even watch how such insights are rejected by the previous group. But nothing is more unbelievable than a dream that was unseen and manifested far from the eyesight of the unbelievers, whom, through the actions motivated by their own thoughts, withdrew their presence from the continually transforming reality of the dreamer.”

“Between extremes, calm finds itself in the center, often perceived as chaotic. It is in the center of the chaos that the wise find the perfect balance, between what should and shouldn't be, what has been and could be, right and wrong, fear and courage. Along this path, luck favors those who are brave enough to ignore the conceptualizations of what is real or unreal, appreciated or unappreciated, possible or impossible. And thus, their life is guided towards risk with safety provided by the third eye.”

“Blessed are the sons of Odin for they will see Valhalla behind curtains of fire and smell the blissful fragrances of its flowers after being pierced in battle. And even though their heart is often poisoned by the darkest emotions experienced and their mind fogged by betrayal, still they can claim any storm they find themselves in as their own and gather courage from its lightenings. It is because of this wholesome attitude to turmoil and chaos that their glory is always predicted by the oracle, for their nature mirrors the dream of their own god.”

“Consciousness is a ripple of reverberations that initiate in the heart and resonate like echoes in the mind. Fear not then that which you speak, but be aware of how it affects others, for the effects of it will return multiplied unto you; and always let that which is good be known, so that you can enjoy the multiplied effects of it too, or learn to discern both. Because those who think too much before they speak have not yet realized how fear restrains them from being conscious of their own potential.”

“Contrary to public opinion, writers are not crazy. It takes a very sharp thinking, an extremely high ability for reasoning, and a very clear mind to write easily, quickly and with value. Whoever prides himself for preparing a short book for more than a year, shouldn’t be proud of his achievements, for such attitude pollutes the truth in art with a lie, and deceives the population into following the wrong leaders and reality changers.”

“Cyclic karma is not a metaphysical approach to the meaning of life because you can see it in history books. The world always attracts that which scares it the most, as if ignorance was not an excuse to avoid responsibility. And the world of today, is as silent about that which has been vilified, as in the case of the Muslims and other minorities, as it once was about the German Jews and other persecuted groups. But likewise and as before, by the same spiritual law, when you ignore that which you don't identify yourself with, you are dragged into a war you didn't choose to have.”

“Don’t feel shame because of your current life or past failures. Know that nobody is perfect and you can overcome your limitations with experience and constant learning. Focus in being a better person every day, as improvements can change your life for better, but focusing on shame and failures will only lead you towards apologizing yourself. Lazy and irresponsible people often justify their behavior with their past, while responsible and successful people strive to be better and proud of themselves.”

“Humans are very strange creatures, unconscious too, dominated by mechanics that are hidden in front of their eyes. They call you wrong when you quote their own books, completely oblivious to the fact you may have been the author, even when they claim to believe in reincarnation. They always think their interpretation of reality is more right than that of others, even when you use their own books to explain their mistakes. If you tell them you write books of a spiritual nature, they may call you a liar if you don't match their deductions on what spirituality is. If you don't tell them you write books, they will in many cases recommend you to do it, because of how you speak, even though your speaking is the result of a mental training accumulated with the exercise of writing. If you tell them that you want to write a book, however, they may laugh and tell you it's a waste of time. If you love someone, she will lose interest and if you don't, she will want to know why. If you teach inside a classroom or a temple, people listen to you, but if you speak outside these two places they don't, unless they want something from you. They call you selfish if you don't give them what they want, but act selfishly when you ask the same from them. They don't want to be lied to but lie to others, and they don't want to be afraid but enjoy being in control. They talk about injustices but never apologize. When you are near they ignore you, and when you disappear they remember you. They say life is about luck but they create their own luck every day.”
