“By health I mean the power to live a full, adult, living, breathing life in close contact with what I love - the earth and the wonders thereof - the sea - the sun, all that we mean when we speak of the external world. I want to enter into it, to be part of it, to live in it, to learn from it, to lose all that is superficial and acquired in me and to become a conscious, direct human being. I want, by understanding myself, to understand others.” WorldWantHumansMeanEarthSpeakUnderstandingLosesHuman BeingsWonderSunSeaConsciousAdultsDirectContactBreathingSuperficialBreathing LifeUnderstanding Myself Book:Stories.

“As the classes in modern life come together, we have become much more intensely class conscious. It's a very curious thing. But I deal with human beings with whom I've come in contact and have had a chance to closely observe. Their upper-classness is not a matter of particular fascination for me.” HumansMatterTogetherChanceHuman BeingsDealsClassModernParticularConsciousContactCuriousFascinationModern Life Author:Louis Auchincloss
“I used to do fight sequences, and I started to get self-conscious about fight sequences, because invariably the other person would get hurt, and you never want anyone to be hurt on a film, let alone you being responsible. The great thing about working with guys who have spent their life choreographing fights for wrestling is that that's what they do. That's their specialty. Their specialty is selling taking hits. Their specialty is selling explosive hits without making a contact or doing too much damage.” WantPersonsSelfFilmUsedGuyFightingHurtToo MuchConsciousResponsibleGreat ThingsSellingContactDamageWrestlingSequenceSelf ConsciousBeing ResponsibleExplosivesSpecialty Author:Vin Diesel
“Silence is essential for deep transformation. It allows the practice of conscious breathing to become deep and effective.

“There's a difference between knowing God and knowing about God. Knowing about God is all of the stuff we've been told and all of the books we've read and all of our religious experiences and what others have told us and tried to convince us of. But knowing God is when we make conscious contact.” BookStuffDifferencesReligiousKnowingConsciousContactConvinceGod KnowsKnowing GodReligious ExperienceConvince Us Author:Wayne Dyer
“Meditation isn't just something we do to make ourselves more peaceful and to take some of the stress out of our lives. We do it because it's the only direct experience we can have of knowing God. Because God is that which is indivisible. Everything else in the universe, in the physical world, is divisible. Up and down, good and bad, right and wrong, male and female, and so on. But that which is indivisible in our physical experience is called silence. And when you get into silence, you're coming to know the indivisibleness of your life - and that's conscious contact.” KnowsWorldUniverseSilenceKnowingOur LivesMeditationConsciousFemaleDirectStressMalesContactPeacefulGood And BadUp And DownKnowing GodIndivisible Author:Wayne Dyer

“We are sufficiently conscious of this dimension or quality of Brazil as a melting pot, as a culture and a nation that is being subjected to an amalgamating process. More than just a mixing process, it is an amalgamation where the fragments, the parts in collision, really interact profoundly.

“The soul which has come into intimate contact with God in the silence of the prayer chamber is never out of conscious touch with the Father; the heart is always going out to Him in loving communion, and the moment the mind is released from the task upon which it is engaged, it returns as naturally to God as the bird does to its nest.” MindHeartDoeSoulMomentsFatherPrayerSilenceReturnBirdConsciousTasksContactIntimateEngagedGoing OutCommunionChamberNests Book:Purpose in Prayer Source: Purpose in Prayer
