“She missed the simplicity of Dunia’s clearest, darkest skies, pristine and unencumbered from light pollution. The vast canvas of distant galaxies, nebulas, meteorites and shooting stars had always left her in awe.

“Eres producto de millones de años evolución. Una evolución que posee el atributo de ir hacia arriba en lo complejo. El animal hace contacto con la naturaleza; pero tú, además, haces contacto con tu interior. Pues es auto-conciencia, la capacidad de pensar sobre lo que piensas. Eres materia transformándose en espíritu. Tienes la increíble misión personal de conocerte a ti mismo. Cuando te auto-observas y te descubres, es el universo entero el que se observa a sí mismo. Eres un momento, un instante fugaz en la inmensidad del cosmos, pero formas parte de un proceso en expansión universal, infinitamente mayor, que te contiene. Todos estamos de paso y vamos de regreso a casa. Viniste a contemplar la creación, a mirarla, a disfrutarla y a cuidarla. Somos obreros del universo. Polvo de estrellas, como dicen. En nosotros se reproduce la historia de toda la humanidad, y tú puedes tener acceso a ella.”

To the place where no living thing would go. Not unless it felt that the end had come.”
