Mystery Quotes

“One of the great mysteries of our current state of consciousness is how we can live in a world where absolutely nothing is fixed, and yet perceive a world of 'fixedness.' But once we start to see reality more as it is, we realize that nothing is permanent, so how could the future be fixed? How could we live in anything but a world of continual possibility? The realization allows us to feel more alive.”

Nay, I begin to believe that even the future destiny of the human race is prefigured in the dark oracular utterances of bodily creation.”
