“Humanity seems to be losing the basic elements that make humans human, i.e., empathy, compassion, moral, sense of logic, etc. In this way, anyone who has developed such attributes by moral conduct, religious practice and meditation, has become, by default, superior to the masses. These individuals have also been upgraded by differentiating themselves, for the spiritual world always chooses those who can more easily convey an abstract message transmitted in vibration through the heart.”

“Humanity has always been controlled by two sides and never did its accomplishments been ignored but overseen and manipulated by those in power. The truth, however, is never accepted by the ones who keep on paying the price for the untruths they embrace. In doing so, they keep the most important truths hidden from themselves, for their level of consciousness cannot go beyond their ego — the belief that they have not been massively fooled.”

“Human beings always analyze reality in linear forms due to how the human mind perceives time and sequences, and learning. But, actually, reality is multi-dimensional, and not possible for the human mind to fully grasp. The human mind is like a very old computer that can't really process so much. On the other hand, it is also a mystery how the spirit is superior to the mind, for it is as if the mind, in itself, was a trap. Whenever you think of yourself as a product of your mind, you have automatically subverted the potential of your own existence.”

“How much is your life worth? If you have low self-esteem, your life is cheap and everything related to improving it sounds expensive. Even one book sounds expensive to a very poor soul that prefers to spend money on alcohol, cigars and other addictions. It is only when you have self-worth that you have the determination and will to pay any price for your spiritual freedom and persist along any path that will take you there.”

“How much can you explore, before you forget the need for an answer? How many pleasures can you embrace, before your questions get neglected? Just imagine all the possibilities, because whatsoever you imagine, is most likely a possibility. Our imagination is not detached from reality, even if the reality of earth may not show it. The more you embrace your imagination, the less your questions make sense. Because, just like light and darkness, both, the questions emerging from material experience and the pleasure of imagining infinite possibilities, can’t coexist.”

“How many planets with life do you think there are? Would you like to live in all of them? Maybe, yes, or maybe, not! For those who don’t believe in alien life or don’t want to believe, or assume that aliens are exaggerated states of being that no human can comprehend, life on earth makes more sense to them. They see the meaning of their life in getting a good salary, a job others can respect, a nice colorful desk with a cheese cake waiting for them on top. And for those who believe, it often becomes a necessity more than a willingness. I.e, they want to escape earth, not realizing that alien life won’t be that different. Consciousness finds itself in both the similarities and the differences.”
