“Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication. It takes a lot of hard work to make something simple, to truly understand the underlying challenges and come up with elegant solutions. [...] It's not just minimalism or the absence of clutter. It involves digging through the depth of complexity. To be truly simple, you have to go really deep. [...] You have to deeply understand the essence of a product in order to be able to get rid of the parts that are not essential.” HardAbleOrderChallengesSimpleConsciousnessProductsHard WorkEssentialsSolutionsEssenceUltimateDepthSimplicityCome UpAbsenceComplexityElegantDiggingMinimalismClutterSophisticationReally DeepElegant Solutions Author:Steve Jobs
“It is the profoundest of cosmic ironies. The divine power, our true spiritual essence, does not achieve perfection until it hits the 'rock' bottom of the cosmos - the dense and crude earth. It remains imperfect until the moment of entombment for the simple reason that until that dark nadir is reached the experiential adventure of existence remains incomplete, and Self is not yet endowed with the entire spectrum of the light of consciousness - from spirit to matter - from the highest high to the lowest low.” DoeSelfMatterReasonMomentsLightEarthSpiritualSpiritDarkSimpleExistenceConsciousnessAchieveRocksDivineAdventureHighestLowsPerfectionEssenceRemainsBottomIronyCosmosCosmicImperfectLowestSpectrumIncompleteCrudeDenseDivine PowerNadir Book:The New Hermetics: 21st Century Magick for Illumination and Power Source: The New Hermetics: 21st Century Magick for Illumination and Power
“I really don't want to produce artwork that does not have meaning beyond simple decorative values. I want to use public space to create a public voice, and a public consciousness about the presence of people who are, in fact, the majority of the population but who are not represented in any visual way.

“Or maybe it is only that we are so habitually inattentive that when some rare but simple geometry grabs us by the shoulders and shakes us into consciousness, we call our response sacred.” SimpleConsciousnessSacredResponseShouldersShakesGeometry Book:Thirteen Moons: A Novel Source: Thirteen Moons: A Novel
“In ordinary speech the words perception and sensation tend to be used interchangeably, but the psychologist distinguishes. Sensations are the items of consciousness--a color, a weight, a texture--that we tend to think of as simple and single. Perceptions are complex affairs that embrace sensation together with other, associated or revived contents of the mind, including emotions.” ThinkingMindTogetherUsedSimpleEmotionConsciousnessColorSpeechPerceptionOrdinaryWeightEmbraceComplexesIncludingAffairSensationsItemsTexturePsychologist Author:Jacques Barzun
“The physical universe that you see is all in your mind. When you turn your mind off, or become unconscious, the physical universe, for you, disappears. Then, when you awaken your consciousness, the universe reappears magically. Quite simple really - no thoughts on your part, no physical world. As Walt Whitman succinctly stated: "The whole theory of the universe is directed unerringly to one single individual - namely to You." Without your mind to process it, the universe simply disappears into nothingness.” WorldMindWholeTurnsUniverseIndividualProcessSimpleConsciousnessTheoryDisappearUnconsciousNothingnessWalt Author:Wayne Dyer
“Meditation is not concentration. It is simple awareness. You simply relax and watch the breathing. In that watching, nothing is excluded. The car is humming - perfectly okay, accept it.

You are not to narrow down your consciousness.” LifeSidesSimpleConsciousnessAcceptingWatchesMeditationAwarenessCarOkayFellowsPassingPassingsBreathingRelaxConcentrationRejectedTrafficParts Of LifePassengersYour SideExcludedHummingSnoring Author:Rajneesh

“Simple molecules combine to make powerful chemicals. Simple cells combine to make powerful life-forms. Simple electronics combine to make powerful computers. Logically, all things are created by a combination of simpler, less capable components. Therefore, a supreme being must be in our future, not our origin.
