Outer World Quotes

“The cause of your suffering is based on the internal structure of your mind -- all the causes of your discomfort and distress originate from the inner world, and not from the outer world. Given the fact that the human brain is a necessary and proximate sufficient cause of the human mind, in general, start with the re-arrangement of your brain activity, if you want to avoid all the suffering in your life. Remember, your brain is the ultimate cure for your suffering, as well as its ultimate cause.”

“Holding back for a while and taking up some stirring moments can inspire us to ignore all futile prerogatives and rouse us to “put ourselves on hold.” By stepping out of our inner shell and discovering the outer world, we create room for other beings, learn how they think, experience what they feel, and understand what kindles them.”

“On the train I saw that world passing my window. It was when I came to see it was I who was passing that my self-centered childhood was over. But it was not until I began to write, that I found the world out there revealing, because memory had become attached to seeing, love had added itself to discovery, and because I recognized in my own continuing longing to keep going, the need I carried inside myself to know - the apprehension, first, and then the passion, to connect myself to it. Through travel I first became aware of the outside world; it was through travel that I found my own introspective way into becoming a part of it. This is, of course, simply saying that the outside world is the vital component of my inner life. My imagination takes its strength and guides its direction from what I see and hear and learn and feel and remember of my living world. But I was to learn slowly that both these worlds, outer and inner, were different from what they seemed to me in the beginning.”
