“All the sounds, words, emotions and memories of previous experiences cannot prepare us enough for the encounters with the unexpected, challenging our values, preconceptions and beliefs. It is then that one is either rewarded for his faith or punished for the lack of it. The ultimate test, however, emerges in the form of what one desires the most hidden beneath the layer of what is simultaneously feared. No one knows the outcome of this invisible battle until its very end. It is when the heart is finally offered to that confrontation that one faces the last gate of his own mortal life, and in doing so, is led to either an immediate rebirth or a slow death.”

“Although many religions have historically been presented as true, the human tendency to resist change has crystallized such groups in thought-forms that also resist change. And that is why even the most supreme religions tend to self-destruct in the hands of the most dedicated followers.”

“We experience, while still young, our most thoroughly felt desires as a kind of horizon, see life as divided into what lies on this side of that horizon and what lies on the other, as if we only had to reach that horizon and fall into it in order for everything to change, in order to once and for all transcend the world as we have known it, though in the end this transcendence never actually comes, of course, a fact one began to appreciate only as one got older, when one realized there was always more life on the other side of desire's completion, that there was always waking up, working, eating, and sleeping, the slow passing of time that never ends, when one realized that one can never truly touch the horizon because life always goes on, because each moment bleeds into the next and whatever one considered the horizon of one's life turns out always to be yet another piece of earth.”

“Anyone who is proud of his nation, family or job, has already failed in life. Among these, the most admirable personalities pass by, looking at this big garbage of delusional validation, among insane lunatics looking for gold in it, completely unseen, many times while being disrespected. The few that are worthy of respect get it the least. And admiration goes only to the biggest garbage collectors. Insanity is the mainstream on Earth.”
