“Hata hivyo, toka mwaka 1995 watu wengi walianza kuamka kiroho dunia nzima; na mwaka 2012 waliamka zaidi, pale ulimwengu ulipoanza kuhama kutoka kwenye masafa ya ngazi ya nne ya ufahamu wa binadamu (‘4th dimension’) kwenda kwenye masafa ya ngazi ya tano ya ufahamu wa binadamu (‘5th dimension’) inayohusika zaidi na ulimwengu wa roho na ambayo bado inaendelea kuhama mpaka dakika hii. Ndiyo maana watu wengi zaidi wanamjua Mungu kipindi hiki kuliko kipindi kingine chochote kile katika historia ya dunia yetu. Kwa sababu hiyo, Shetani hatashinda.”

“SENSES, APPEARANCE, ESSENCE and EXISTENCE The world we see with our senses is very different than the world we see through our essence. Our senses perceive the world of appearance. Our essence perceives the deeper layers of existence. The first step of perceiving the world of essence is to have no goal other than to understand. "Understanding" has to be the ultimate goal. Only then, can we solve the problems.”

It wasn't success he craved, or even fame, it was history: he wanted to crack the universe open like a ripe watermelon, to arrange the mess of pulpy seeds before his dumbfounded colleagues. He wanted to take the dripping red fruit in his hands and quantify the guts of infinity to look back into the dawn of time and glimpse the very beginning. He wanted to be remembered.”

“We have examined the universe in space and seen that we live on a mote of dust circling a humdrum star in the remotest corner of an obscure galaxy. And if we are a speck in the immensity of space, we also occupy an instant in the expanse of ages. We now know that our universe or at least its most recent incarnation - is some fifteen or twenty billion years old. This is the time since a remarkable explosive event called the Big Bang. At the beginning of this universe, there were no galaxies, stars or planets, no life or civilizations, merely a uniform, radiant fireball filling all of space. The passage from the Chaos of the Big Bang to the Cosmos that we are beginning to know is the most awesome transformation of matter and energy that we have been privileged to glimpse. And until we find more intelligent beings elsewhere, we are ourselves the most spectacular of all the transformations - the remote descendants of the Big Bang, dedicated to understanding and further transforming the Cosmos from which we spring”
