Quote by Elena Y. Goldberg

“We have one powerful observer's lens that allows us to see all possible perspectives of ourselves simultaneously, and losing just one perspective means we may lose everything. An integrative way of existing is much better than walking around as broken parts of oneself in this reality. The task is to discover all possible perspectives, achieve integrity among them, and recognize when someone is trying to break it. Continuous well-being is achieved only through continuous integration.”

“To replace the self with the ego is to misunderstand the essence of our being. True egolessness can only be achieved through rare states of psychosis, enlightenment, deep meditation, or profound drug experiences. Yet, such a state is fleeting, and once it ends, we are reborn into our selves once more. An eternal egoless existence is an illusion, even for monks. Our journey is not about eradicating the ego but about continuously integrating ourselves into a harmonious whole.”

“You should realize that even the thoughts originating in your mind are not always your own. They don’t just happen when you want them to arise, but often arise within a certain dictated framework. Let me explain. In some ways, our minds have some similarities to AI models of the current era. Just like AI, we are trained on large sets of data and facts, fed by our operator (the society and world around us) and our thinking is limited within the current evolutionary constraints of our own brains, just like other animals cannot possess the cognitive capabilities of a human. To think beyond this framework is almost a superhuman task, truly demonstrated by only a few known people in history, the Buddha being one example. In other words, the one who is blind from birth, has no idea what “seeing” feels like.”

“we shouldn’t view persistent negative emotions as symptoms of a biological malaise or a malfunctioning brain, as medical professional often tend to do. Instead, we should see them as indicators that our life has veered off the intended path and we are now living in a way that fails to satisfy the deepest yearning of our soul.”

“As someone once said, “Your life doesn’t get better by chance; it gets better by change.” Unfortunately, many fail to embrace this principle, and when negative emotions, boredom, and sadness come into their misarranged lifestyles, they often resort to suppressing or masking these feelings, seeking solace in the pursuit of immediate gratifications and easily accessible distractions—a seemingly efficient yet deceptive solution that only prolongs their entanglement in the same toxic lifestyle.”
