Quote by Grigori Grabovoi

“Jesus Christ using different allegories calls again and again to abandon everything for the sake of attainment of the Kingdom of God, explaining, that if someone has been able to attain the Kingdom of God, then the rest will come to him of itself. So, the Kingdom of God, first of all, is a higher state of consciousness. And the ascension to still higher and higher states of consciousness – is, virtually, a way to God. And then the meaning of the phrase “the Kingdom of God is inside us” becomes clear. It is because the Kingdom of God is a higher state of consciousness that is why it is inside us. And when Jesus says again and again “Wake up!”, he means the proper sense of the word, because compared to higher states of consciousness, an ordinary state of wakefulness represents a deep sleep, nearly the same as our ordinary sleep is, compared to the state of wakefulness.”

We walk by faith and not by sight because there are places to go that cannot be seen and the scope of our vision is too small for our strides. Faith is not a denial of facts – it is a broadening of focus. It does not deny the hardness of guitar strings, it plucks them into a sweetness of sound”

“No girls until after your GCSEs." I'm so startled that I just gape at her as she hands it back. I'm used to it-it's what she always tells Rosh and me: No boys until after your GCSEs- but she said it. She may have waited until my father wasn't in the room, but she did. I heard her say it and I want to grab her and hug her because I don't think I've ever loved her so much. Girls. Maybe she's coming around after all.”
