“Love is the key. If we start to express the spring of love within that is our true essence, our Truth, our spark of Divinity... and allow it to flow more... then all is revealed. Love becomes our guide in life, our connection with All, and our path back to Source.” IfsSpiritualityLove IsPathSourceKeysSpringFlowConnectionsEssenceGuidesDivinitySparksSpiritual Awareness Author:Peter Shepherd
“This human need for mysticism – surrender to an unknown truth, union – stands at the helm of all romantic feeling. It is, in essence, the same intimacy known in a mother’s arms; in those who are deprived of the experience, the need freezes and, distorted, it can rent a life. All addiction has as its foundation skewed yearning for the same transcendence. For me, the spell of the material was broken by my brother’s death; after his suicide, all I wanted was the renewal of my connection to the intangible.” NeedsHumansFeelingsWantedMotherKnownBrotherMaterialsBrokenArmsConnectionsEssenceFoundationSuicideUnionsAddictionSurrenderIntimacyMy BrotherMysticismSpellsYearningRenewalDeprivedTranscendenceFreezeIntangibleHuman NeedsHelmRomantic Feelings Author:Antonella Gambotto-Burke
“Capitalism cannot be reduced to one or a few features, but it does possess one relationship, central to its existence and operation, that constitutes the essence of inequality and ineradicable instability: the wage-labor-capital connection that dwells at the heart of the system.” HeartDoeExistenceCapitalismLaborConnectionsEssenceInequalityFeaturesOperationsInstability Author:Herbert Schiller
“I believe that dialogue is the key to breaking through our tendency to separate and isolate. Dialogue changes isolation and loneliness into connection and interdependence.

“Art is a process of concentration. It is both the distilled essence and the commentary upon otherwise mundane activities and reflections.

“Hayek made a quite fruitful suggestion, made contemporaneously by the psychologist Donald Hebb, that whatever kind of encounter the sensory system has with the world, a corresponding event between a particular cell in the brain and some other cell carrying the information from the outside word must result in reinforcement of the connection between those cells. These day, this is known as a Hebbian synapse, but von Hayek quite independently came upon the idea. I think the essence of his analysis still remains with us.” ThinkingWorldKindMadeStillsIdeasResultsBrainKnownEventsInformationParticularConnectionsEssenceRemainsCellsThese DaysAnalysisEncountersSuggestionsPsychologistSensoryCorrespondingHayekReinforcementVon Hayek Author:Gerald Edelman

“For me, the creation of a photograph is experienced as a heightened emotional response, most akin to poetry and music, each image the culmination of a compelling impulse I cannot deny. Whether working with a human figure or a still life, I am deeply aware of my spiritual connection with it.

“I have long had a tendency to tie marksmanship to morality. The essence of good marksmanship is self-control, and self-control is the essence of good citizenship.

“She had always felt that the essence of human experience lay not primarily in the peak experiences, the wedding days and triumphs which stood out in the memory like dates circled in red on old calendars, but, rather, in the unself-conscious flow of little things - the weekend afternoon with each member of the family engaged in his or her own pursuit, their crossings and connections casual, dialogues imminently forgettable, but the sum of such hours creating a synergy which was important and eternal.” HumansLittlesImportantTimeFeltHoursMemoriesMembersEternalCreatingConsciousRedFlowConnectionsEssenceExperienceLaysPursuitDialogueTriumphEngagedLittle ThingsAfternoonWeekendHuman ExperienceCasualCrossingsCalendarsSynergyWedding DayPeak ExperiencesForgettable Author:Dan Simmons
