“Individual societies begin in harmonious adaptation to the environment and, like individuals, quickly get trapped into nonadaptive, artificial, repetitive sequences. When the individual's behavior and consciousness get hooked to a routine sequence of external actions, he is a dead robot, and it is time for him to die and be reborn. Time to "drop out," "turn on," and "tune in.” ActionDiesTurnsIndividualConsciousnessEnvironmentBehaviorTunesRoutineArtificialTrappedRobotsAdaptationSequenceTurn-onHarmoniousHookedRebornRepetitive Book:Turn On, Tune In, Drop Out Source: Turn On, Tune In, Drop Out
“Comics play a trite but lusty tune on the C natural keys of human nature. They rouse the most primitive, but also the most powerful, reverberations in the noisy cranial sound-box of consciousness, drowning out more subtle symphonies. Comics scorn finesse, thereby incurring the wrath of linguistic adepts. They defy the limits of accepted fact and convention, thus amortizing to apoplexy the ossified arteries of routine thought.” HumansBookPlayFactsSoundNaturalPowerfulConsciousnessHuman NatureKeysLimitsBoxesAcceptedComicTunesSubtleMost PowerfulRoutineConventionsPrimitiveComic BookWrathScornDrowningSymphonyNoisyArteriesFinesseReverberationIncurring Author:William Moulton Marston

“When I find that I am more conscious, it's because I'm in tune with a higher reality. When I'm less conscious, it's because I've cut off that entunement to some extent. Maybe through drinking, through anger, through whatever. And I realized then that God has to be an infinite consciousness, and that I had to be an expression of that consciousness. And that the goal of life then must be to become more and more in tune with that consciousness. And I decided to give my life to God. And around that time, to make a long story short, I found Autobiography of a Yogi.” GivingLongStoriesRealityFoundGoalConsciousnessCuttingExpressionHigherConsciousDecidedInfiniteDrinkingI RealizedTunesAutobiographyLife GoalYogiLong StoryAutobiography Of A YogiInfinite Consciousness Author:Goswami Kriyananda

“How long it will take until we get to a Golden Age where everybody's perfectly in tune with God's will, I don't know; but because of Prabhupada, Krishna consciousness has certainly spread more in the last sixteen years than it has since the sixteenth century, since the time of Lord Caitanya. The mantra has spread more quickly and the movement's gotten bigger and bigger.” KnowsYearsLongAgeLastsConsciousnessLordCenturyMovementBiggerSpreadGods WillGoldenTunesKrishnaMantrasSixteenGolden Age Author:George Harrison
