“In our true blissful essence of mind is known that everything is alright forever and forever and forever...listen to the silence inside the illusion of the world, and you will remember the lesson you forgot, It is all one vast awakened thing. We were never really born, we will never really die. It has nothing to do with the imaginary idea of a personal self, other selves, many selves everywhere: Self is only an idea, a mortal idea. That which passes into everything is one thing.

“It was the essence of life to disbelieve in death for one's self, to act as if life would continue forever. And life had to act also as if little issues were big ones. To take a realistic attitude toward life and death meant that one lapsed into unreality. Into insanity. It was ironic that the only way to keep one's sanity was to ignore that one was in an insane world or to act as if the world were sane.” IfsWorldWayLittlesSelfBigsAttitudeForeverIssuesEssenceInsaneInsanityLife And DeathRealisticSanityIronicSaneUnrealityEssence Of LifeInsane World Author:Philip Jose Farmer

“Science has a simple faith, which transcends utility. Nearly all men of science, all men of learning for that matter, and men of simple ways too, have it in some form and in some degree. It is the faith that it is the privilege of man to learn to understand, and that this is his mission. If we abandon that mission under stress we shall abandon it forever, for stress will not cease. Knowledge for the sake of understanding, not merely to prevail, that is the essence of our being. None can define its limits, or set its ultimate boundaries.” IfsMenWayMatterFormScienceFaithUnderstandingSimpleKnowledgeForeverLimitsDegreesEssenceUltimateAccountsStressSakePrivilegeMissionsBoundariesCeaseAbandonUtilitySimple WaysUnder StressSimple Faith Author:Vannevar Bush

“Divine happiness, even the tiniest particle of a grain of it, never leaves one again; and when one attains to the essence of things and finds one's Self-this is supreme happiness. When it is found, nothing else remains to be found; the sense of want will not awaken anymore, and the heart's torment will be stilled forever. Do not be satisfied with fragmentary happiness, which is invariably interrupted by shocks and blows of fate; but become complete, and having attained to perfection, be YOURSELF.” WantHeartSelfFoundForeverFateDivinePerfectionEssenceRemainsBlowSupremeSatisfiedBeing YourselfShockGrainTormentParticlesInterrupted Author:Anandamayi Ma
