Quote by David Sinclair

“The “quintessence of dust” is zero-finity-infinity. It can be expressed as the local plus the non-local, matter and mind, nature and supernature, physics and metaphysics, body and soul, Creation and the Creator, the dream and the dreamer, spacetime and singularity. Ontological mathematics alone can elucidate all of these relationships. It’s all in the math! It’s not as if it could be anywhere else. 1 + 1 = 2.”

“What is a dream? It’s an externalized thought, a projected thought. The mind makes a world that seems separate from the mind, but is in fact wholly contained by the mind and vanishes when the mind ceases to think about it. The universe itself is just the same. It’s a projected thought. It is born in mind, and mind can end it, and eventually does. Then starts it up again. A new dream is launched.”

“Consider the sunlight. You may see it is near, yet if you follow it from world to world you will never catch it in your hands. Then you may describe it as far away and, lo, you will see it just before your eyes. Follow it and, behold, it escapes you; run from it and it follows you close. You can neither possess it nor have done with it. From this example you can understand how it is with the true Nature of all things and, henceforth, there will be no need to grieve or to worry about such things.”
