“We live in graves and call them home, and we further sustain the neurotic structure of those graves with elements of so-called sociological, cultural, traditional, religious, political and intellectual significance.”

“After man has persuaded himself that all things which exist are made for him, he must in everything adjudge that to be of the greatest importance which is most useful to him, and he must esteem that to be of surpassing worth by which he is most beneficially affected. In this way he is compelled to form those notions by which he explains nature; such, for instance, as good, evil, order, confusion, heat, cold, beauty, and deformity, etc.; and because he supposes himself to be free, notions like those of praise and blame, sin and merit, have arisen.”

“Always move by calling and not emotion. I’ve been there and done that. You never want to move out of what you feel or by disobedience or anger. Ask God for wisdom. Is It Wise to Leave a Church Disappointed? Disappointment is not rebellion it’s a signal. It tells you something sacred was expected, but something painful was experienced. Wisdom doesn’t rush out of pain—it listens to it. Leaving isn’t always the problem. Leaving without clarity is. Before you walk away, ask: • Am I leaving a place—or escaping a process or problem? • Is this disappointment a divine disruption or personal discomfort? • Have I voiced the ache, or just swallowed it? Sometimes God allows disappointment to unseat you from comfort so He can replant you in purpose. But other times, He calls you to stay—not to suffer, but to shift the atmosphere. To be the healing you hoped to receive. Wisdom is not in staying or leaving—it’s in discerning the assignment. If your presence there is no longer prophetic, if your spirit is shrinking, if your gifts are silenced, it may be time to go. But if your leaving is premature, you may miss the oil that only crushing produces. Praying for you.”

“You always dread the unfamiliar. Surely you remember the boy in your own school class who was exceptionally ‘bright,’ did most of the reciting and answering while the others sat like so many leaden idols, hating him. And wasn’t it this bright boy you selected and tortured after hours? Of course it was. We must all be alike. Not everyone born free and equal, as the Constitution says, but everyone made equal. Each man the image of every other; then all are happy, for there are no mountains to make them cower, to judge themselves again. So! A book is a loaded gun in the house next door. Burn it. Take the shot from the weapon. Breach man's mind. Who knows who might be the target of the well-read man?”

“Emotions when guided by conscience, can do wonders in the world of mortal humans – thoughts when guided by conscience, can manifest magnificent creativity on this planet – and behavior when guided by conscience, can transform this world into a real progressive abode of peace with the pure elements of compassion, kindness and courage flowing through the very spine of the society.”

“Clearly, on the world’s highest battlefield, a protracted war over the glaciers and passes had begun. The commanders in khaki reported the shooting and called the shots. Headquartered on the distant plains, the governmental chiefs of Pakistan and India depended on what their commanders from the desolate ice-covered peaks would report. Isolated with their platoons, and weighed under by snowman’s gear, these were often daredevil commanders. They were tasked to fly their country’s flags on the sequestered Himalayan peaks. Programmed into their DNA were nationalist narratives framing the other as ‘the enemy.’ Without this mindset, their hardship at such incredible heights would make no sense. From the clash of narratives alone could flow their will to battle their adversary. Institutional training and Statist historiography had programmed these men with guns into being willing warriors. Yet, when they accidently drifted into close proximity, this ‘processing’ would give way to human connection. With their weather-battered bodies and lonely hearts, quarantined from civilization and set in the harsh and desolate heights, they would share a smoke or a smile with an ‘enemy.”
