“In reality, there are probably people out there who don't fully know themselves yet or think that being a man means you have to only like women, which isn't necessary at all... we can like whoever we want. If they treat us well, make us blush, or give us butterflies, we have the freedom to choose who we want to love.”

“Naked and unencumbered, I ran through the woods, a faun unleashed in the spirit of Nijinsky’s solitary ballet, The Afternoon of a Faun. The earth beneath my bare feet, the brush of leaves against my skin, the wind whispering secrets—all conspired to ignite a profound sense of freedom.”

“The search för love, joy, silence, truth, freedom or God is really a search for a union with the whole. We are brought up by a society, civilization and religion in such a way that we are given a false identity. We are all deceived by powerful people, who depend on lying and cheating. They have been cheating for centuries to be able to accumulate money and power, and they are afraid of allowing anybody to discover the truth. The whole business of the politicians, the priests, the establishment, the status quo, the vested interests, the education system, the media and the rich depend on people who are gullible and ready to be deceived. From the very childhood these people creates such situations that the child becomes aware that if he wants to survive in the world he has to compromise his truth. If the child says the truth he will be getting into trouble. By the time he is strong enough to be truthful hehas lost all sense of truth. The lies have gone so deep in him that they have become unconscious, so that it has become almost impossible to get rid of them. That is the whole process of a man searching for truth: to undo what the society has done to him. You have to be reborn, and you will have to become aware that the ego is a false identity imposed on you. You are not separate at all from the whole. You are part of the organic whole. And to know it brings great joy, because when you are not a separate entity, then how can anxiety and anguish exist? Then life becomes a joy. Then there is freedom without any fear.”
