“I like the company of men. I've never been welcome in those groups, but then I would no more go to a consciousness-raising group and talk about my intimate life with my husband than fly to the moon. I never understood all that.” MenConsciousnessCompanyGroupsMoonHusbandUnderstoodWelcomeIntimateMy Husband Author:Nancy Friday
“The main thesis of mind-physics holds that consciousness and matter are both manifestations of a more primary entity, and that the processes of manifestation exhibit equivalent invariances for both consciousness and matter. When the program for mind-physics is complete the subject-object dichotomy of modal logic, the polarity of concept-percept, and the antagonism between morality and technology will all come to an end. Then the non-repeatable experiment will be understood to be more primary than the traditional repeatable experiment.” MindEndsMatterProcessConsciousnessTechnologySubjectsObjectsMoralityUnderstoodConceptsProgramLogicPhysicsExperimentsTraditionalPrimariesManifestationEntityExhibitsThesisDichotomyAntagonismPolarity Author:Paul Laffoley
“Has anyone...any distinct notion of what poets of a stronger age understood by the word inspiration? ... There is an ecstasy such that the immese strain of it is sometimes relaxed by a flood of tears, along with which one's steps either rush or involuntarily lag, alternately. There is the feeling that one is completely out of hand, with the very distinct consciousness of an endless number of fine thrills and quiverings to the very toes... Everything happens quite involuntarily, as if in a tempestuous outburst of freedom, of absoluteness, of power and divinity.” IfsSometimesFeelingsHandsInspirationHappensAgeNumbersConsciousnessStepsTearsPoetFineUnderstoodStrongerNotionThings HappenEndlessDivinityEcstasyFloodToesStrainRelaxedLagOutburst Author:Friedrich Nietzsche
“So what Jesus taught must be understood from the deepest level and that is one of the best sayings to show that he was talking in that way. In the book Revelations from Christ, I found out something that Yogananda said. That Jesus had said son of men and son of God, and people often misunderstand so sometimes the translations themselves are wrong for that reason. So when he said son of man he meant his human body and personality. When he said son of God, he meant the infinite Christ consciousness with which he'd obtained oneness.” PeopleMenWayHumansSaidBookSometimesReasonShowsBodyFoundJesusChristLevelsConsciousnessTalkingTaughtSonPersonalityUnderstoodInfiniteOnenessRevelationsHuman BodyTranslationsChrist Consciousness Author:Goswami Kriyananda
