“To me it is no mystery that we can only photograph effectively what we are truly interested in or-maybe more importantly-are grappling with. Often unconsciously. Otherwise the photographs are merely about an idea or a concept-that stuff eventually falls flat for me-there must be something more, some emotional hook for it to really work for me.” IdeasFallStuffInterestConsciousnessMysteryEmotionalPhotographyConsciousConceptsPhotographFlatsHookEffectivenessGrapplingFlatness Author:Todd Hido
“Don't think about why you question, simply don't stop questioning. Don't worry about what you can't answer, and don't try to explain what you can't know. Curiosity is its own reason. Aren't you in awe when you contemplate the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure behind reality? And this is the miracle of the human mind - to use its constructions, concepts, and formulas as tools to explain what man sees, feels and touches. Try to comprehend a little more each day. Have holy curiosity.” ThinkingKnowsMenFeelsTryingMindHumansLittlesReasonUseRealityAnswersBehindsWorryMysteryHolyConceptsToolsEternityMiracleStructureCuriosityEach DayAweHuman MindFormulasConstructionQuestioningContemplatingMarvelousEternity Of Life Author:Albert Einstein
“Mysticism is a rational enterprise. Religion is not. The mystic has recognized something about the nature of consciousness prior to thought, and this recognition is susceptible to rational discussion. The mystic has reasons for what he believes, and these reasons are empirical. The roiling mystery of the world can be analyzed with concepts (this is science), or it can be experienced free of concepts (this is myticism). Religion is nothing more than bad concepts held in place of good ones for all time. It is the denial-at once full of hope and full of fear-of the vastitude of human ignorance.” WorldBelieveHumansReasonSpiritualityConsciousnessMysteryIgnoranceConceptsRationalAll TimeRecognitionDenialDiscussionEnterpriseMysticismMysticSusceptible Author:Sam Harris

“I have spent my life watching, not to see beyond the world, merely to see, great mystery, what is plainly before my eyes. I think the concept of transcendence is based on a misreading of creation. With all respect to heaven, the scene of the miracle is here, among us. The eternal as an idea is much less preposterous than time, and this very fact should seize our attention.” ThinkingWorldShouldIdeasFactsEyeHeavenAttentionMysteryCreationSceneEternalConceptsMiracleTranscendenceMisreading Author:Marilynne Robinson
“Faith is a continuum, and we each fall on that line where we may. By attempting to rigidly classify ethereal concepts like faith, we end up debating semantics to the point where we entirely miss the obvious - that is, that we are all trying to decipher life's big mysteries, and we're each following our own paths of enlightenment.” TryingMayEndsBigsFallLinesPathMysteryMissingEnlightenmentConceptsObviousFollowingAttemptingContinuumEtherealDecipherSemantics Author:Dan Brown
“Atheism and agnosticism signify the rejection of certain images and concepts of God or of truth, which are historically conditioned and therefore inadequate. Atheism is a challenge to religion to purifiy its images and concepts and come nearer to the truth of divine mystery.” CertainChallengesMysteryAtheismDivineConceptsAtheistRejectionInadequateAgnosticism Author:Bede Griffiths
