“In the old days, there were bogles, the horrid things, creeping in the darkness, ready to take people. And even in the daytime, when there weren't bogles, people were always fretting about them, or something or other else -- or the Church was worrying for them. The priests were always on at people about their souls, and between hell and the bogles, people's minds were never easy.”

“Are you willing to enter the divine realm? Are you willing to participate in God’s suffering? The Devil is the reification of God’s torment and rage against what he has had to endure, the cosmic pain he has felt over so many millennia. God suffered the ultimate fragmentation. He was torn into as many pieces as there are monads. No one was ever more torn asunder, more split apart, than God. And then he had to put himself together again. Hell is another dimension of heaven, not a separate location.”

“For the Hive Mind to function properly, every member of the Hive needs to understand what is going on. Only then can it do its proper job. We can have the dreams of the gods! We can build heaven on earth. Unfortunately, if people don’t comprehend what the Hive Mind truly is and their place in it is then we get hell instead. We get this exact world we’re in right now – a screwed-up Hive Mind, a Hive where the members of the Hive have viciously turned on each other. We need to clean out the Hive. We need to get it working properly. That means everyone needs to know about this book. Spread the good word!”
