Quote by Hazel Gaynor

“As I followed Elsie back along the riverbank, I brushed my fingertips against the silky catkins on the willow trees and wished Daddy had failed the medical examination too. I stopped now and then to collect interesting-looking pebbles that clacked together satisfyingly in my pockets, and to pick the pretty wildflowers: stitchwort and ragwort, silverweed and harebell, lady's purse and cinquefoil. Elsie told me their names. As we walked, I repeated them over and over so I wouldn't forget them, storing them away like precious gems to admire again later, in private.”

“From The Twelve Enlightenments Observe your own body. It breathes. You breathe when you are asleep, when you are no longer conscious of your own ideas of self-identity. Who, then, is breathing? The collection of information that you mistakenly think it’s you is not the main protagonist in this drama called the breath. In fact, you are not breathing; breath is naturally happening to you. You can purposely end your own life, but you cannot purposely keep your own life going. The expression, “My life” is actually an oxymoron, a result of ignorance and mistaken assumption. You don’t posses life; life expresses itself through you. Your body is a flower that life let bloom, a phenomenon created by life.”

“The idea that the World can create itself from nothing is equally absurd as the idea that God created the World from nothing. The lack of the material world, space, and time in the primordial, immaterial state of the Being is not proof that the primordial Being does not exist. Also, the lack of a material world in the primordial state does not mean that the Being creates from nothing. The Creation, or the process of creating, happens in the interaction between the Being and Nonbeing. The immateriality of the primordial Being does not mean that there was only absolute Nothing in the imagined “beginning.” This Immaterial Something is the Source of Everything.”
