“To lovers of the wild, these mountains are not a hundred miles away. Their spiritual power and the goodness of the sky make them near, as a circle of friends. ... You cannot feel yourself out of doors; plain, sky, and mountains ray beauty which you feel. You bathe in these spirit-beams, turning round and round, as if warming at a camp-fire. Presently you lose consciousness of your own separate existence: you blend with the landscape, and become part and parcel of nature.” IfsFeelsSpiritualSpiritLosesExistenceConsciousnessFireDoorsSkyLoversMountainGoodnessHundredUnityRoundsMilesCirclesLandscapeCampsRaysBeamMiles AwayParcelSpiritual PowerCircle Of Friends Book:Meditations of John Muir: Nature's Temple Source: Meditations of John Muir: Nature's Temple
“Death, however, does itch. It itches all the time. It is always with us, scratching at some inner door. Mirroring, softly, barely audibly, just under the membrane of consciousness. Hidden in disguise, leaking out in a variety of symptoms. It is the wellspring of many of our worries, stresses, and conflicts.” DoeDeathConsciousnessWorryDoorsConflictStressVarietyDisguiseSymptomsMirroringWellspringMembranes Author:Irvin D. Yalom
“The popular prophets have underestimated how strange the truth can be. The human brain, that 'perfect instrument,' that 'fabulous electronic dance,' can be our open sesame to an infinitely richer life than we have believed possible. The fluent, liberating, creative, healing attributes of the altered states can be incorporated into consciousness. We are just beginning to realize that we can truly open the doors of perception and creep out of the cavern.” HumansStatesRealizingPerfectHealingBrainConsciousnessCreativeDoorsStrangePerceptionInstrumentsProphetAttributesFabulousLiberatingCreepsAlteredHuman BrainUnderestimatedFluentCavernsDoors Of PerceptionAltered States Author:Marilyn Ferguson
“There is no soul; there is only consciousness, the highest thing man ever has! Losing the conscious means to die! Death is not a door; when our conscious is gone, all is gone! Only the existence has the doors! Only the life presents you doors! You can save yourself only when you are alive, not after because there is no after! The first step for salvation is to know this simple truth!” KnowsMenLifeFirstsMeanSoulDiesSimpleExistenceConsciousnessStepsGoneAliveDoorsHighestLosingConsciousSalvationFirst StepsTruth Of LifeSimple TruthsSave Yourself Author:Mehmet Murat Ildan
“Often what is nearest is hardest of all to see - try asking a fish to define water. Distance opens a door to revelation. When the first great distances of space were conquered by technology, a camera altered the human perspective on the Earth as radically as Galileo did when he proved the sun was the center of the universe. The ecology movement was born from a photographically altered consciousness.” TryingFirstsHumansEarthUniverseWaterBornSpaceConsciousnessTechnologySunDoorsMovementPerspectiveAskingCamerasDistanceFishesHardestRevelationsEcologyAlteredCenter Of The Universe Author:Vicki Goldberg
“We can open up our computers and Skype with someone, and we see them. It's like looking through a window. And we can surf the internet through our phones, and it's like our consciousness is far away. Or we can step through a airplane door and be in another continent a few hours away. So technology feels, to me, like the doors sort of already exist, at least emotionally.” FeelsHoursConsciousnessStepsTechnologyDoorsInternetComputerWindowPhonesAirplaneFar AwayContinentsSurfSkype Author:Mohsin Hamid
