Famous Sol Luckman Quotes

“The world we see ‘out there’ is a reflection of our cleverly molded shared consciousness, our collective belief installed through manipulation of our mimetic desire, not a given ‘thing’ that can’t be changed. This means, as in the adage, that we can heal the world only if we heal ourselves.”

“The conscious energy of attention can be used to do literally anything because it’s a focalization of the imagination, the binding life force that amalgamates thoughts, emotions and beliefs into a powerfully creative gestalt. You could also call this force chi, prana, kundalini, torsion energy, scalar waves, even mojo. These are all merely variations on the central theme of all Matrix energy dynamics: people power.”

“Our individual attention is exceedingly powerful, no doubt about it. But when our attentions (plural) come together in an aligned group, we’re looking at the nuclear option, creative or destructive potential on a monumental scale.”

“Attention is what harnesses the primal creative power of our thoughts, emotions and beliefs (which, to oversimplify, combine to form our imagination) in such a way as to build tulpas and egregores, to make dreams come true, and even to create brave new worlds and realities.”

“What we focus on, what we believe, has a direct effect on the unfolding of actual events—small ones, yes, but large ones as well. Indeed, our sustained focus is the primary driver in bringing what are initially purely imagined scenarios (some on an expanded scale) to life.”

“By succumbing to external conditioning and looking outside ourselves for answers, thus denying the power of our imagination and ignoring the only viable path forward into the future (that of internal transformation), we’re bound to just keep pouring gasoline on a world already on fire.”

“We must shift our perceptions, beliefs, intentions, and emotions. We must harness the power of the observer effect to induce a quantum change in the observed world. We must return to our center and resurrect our innate ability to perform miracles with only the tool of our consciousness. This is true magic, not something out of Hogwarts. We’re more than capable of waving our wands over the manifest world and making its madness disappear. But first, we have to realize that we’re born wizards, each and every one of us. There are no Muggles here.”

“As we embark on this challenging yet transformational inner journey, we tap into the quantum self, the infinite potential that resides within. We come to realize that we’re not victims of circumstance, but conscious creators with the power to literally change the world ... or at least our world … by altering our worldview. Our own reclaimed beliefs—which are more like deep knowings based on direct personal experience instead of mimetic desire—are some of the primary tools that we employ as increasingly conscious architects of our own experience.”

“The observer effect puts our everyday perceptions and assumptions in a blender. It dictates—if we’re to be honest with ourselves, sober in our thinking, and not reactionary in our emotions—that the world we see is NOT the ultimate reality, but merely a projection of it. From this perspective the manifest world is revealed as what Hindu mystics referred to as maya, illusion, the imaginal outpourings of minds—like children naturally playing in magical constructs that seem eminently real—simply doing what minds do.”

“A critical piece of holistic self-becoming involves the deeply felt realization that our thoughts, beliefs and intentions aren’t merely mental or ‘just imaginary’ events. On the contrary, they’re potent forces interacting synergistically with the quantum field, the biofield of the Universal Mind, if you will. In a culture crafted by eager yes-men and -women to an overbearing materialism, this may be a hard pill to swallow. But that doesn’t change this clear (to many anyway) dynamic: the simply powerful act of observation influences the universe at its most basic level.”

“Finally, we entered Chetaube County, my imaginary birthplace, where the names of the little winding roads and minuscule mountain communities never failed to inspire me: Yardscrabble, Big Log, Upper, Middle and Lower Pigsty, Chicken Scratch, Cooterville, Felchville, Dust Rag, Dough Bag, Uranus Ridge, Big Bottom, Hooter Holler, Quickskillet, Buck Wallow, Possum Strut ... We always say a picture speaks a thousand words, but isn’t the opposite equally true?”

“Contrary to the dogma downloaded from our many cult-like institutions of higher (actually lower) learning, we’re not in any way separate from the quantum dance of the imagination; we’re inextricably bound up in it. In a mind-melting paradox, we somehow manage to give rise to the quantum dance … even as it dances us!”
