“Mysterious spaces cause us to turn inward. Amid a rich upwelling of association, we encounter many aspects of ourselves. As we grow still, we come in contact with a unified, empty, yet full ground of our being. As our consciousness grows more spacious, we find connections between us and the wider world, a shared greater reality.” WorldStillsRealityTurnsGrowsCausesSpaceConsciousnessRichGreaterAspectEmptyConnectionsContactMysteriousEncountersAssociationInwardUnified Author:John Paul Caponigro
“Thank god we don't know a lot about William Shakespeare or Moses or Homer or LautrĂ©amont. These are the best guys we got, and their art is powerful because they're mysterious. Once biographical information contaminates your consciousness, it's impossible to erase it and look at someone's work the same way again.” ArtGuyPowerfulConsciousnessImpossibleArt IsMysteriousThank GodMosesErase Author:Cass McCombs
“Life and consciousness are the two great mysteries. Actually, their substrates are the inanimate. And how do you get from neurons shooting around in the brain to the thought that pops up in your head and mine? There's something deeply mysterious about that. And if you're not struck by the mystery, I think you haven't thought about it.” IfsThinkingTwoBrainConsciousnessMysteryHavensMinesPopsMysteriousShootingNeurons Author:Charles Krauthammer
