“The loss of the object of love is, for the human unconscious, so much worse than the damnation of the Being, hence the fragmentation of consciousness resulting from this possibility. The persistence of the ego, in these conditions, must be given by the recognition of the ego as an extension of the totality of the world of life, or, of the transcendence of the Self, that is, it is beyond the instant, conditions or materiality - the immortal soul of ancient religions or, the non-duality of Buddhism.”

“It was the end of July and I'd convinced myself that I was pretty much back to normal. But the world around me was growing very strange indeed. The light that filled my house was deep and livid, half magnolia, half rainwater. Things sat in it, dark and very still. Sometimes I felt I was living in a house at the bottom of the sea. There were imperceptible pressures. Tapping water-pipes. I'd hear myself breathing and jump at the sound. Something else was there, something standing next to me that I couldn't touch or see, a thing a fraction of a millimetre from my skin, something vastly wrong, making infinite the distance between me and all the familiar objects in my house. I ignored it. I'm fine, I told myself. Fine.”
