“Meditation is the study of making the mind still. As your mind becomes still, a power enters you. This power transmogrifies your mind, it escalates your evolution and you begin to cycle through many incarnations in one lifetime.” MindStillsStudyMeditationBuddhismEvolutionLifetimeCyclesIncarnation Author:Frederick Lenz
“Evolution is far more than a belief or an educated guess about how people came to be as they are. It is, in fact, the product of converging evidence from many, many different fields of science. Many, many thousands of studies that, in fact, have provided a theory, an organizing principal in fact, that describes how humans came to be.” PeopleHumansDifferentFactsBeliefStudyFieldsProductsTheoryEvolutionEvidenceEducatedPrincipal Author:Alan I.

“The American psychologist Julian Jaynes, in a controversial study on the origin of consciousness, argued that the bicameral mind - in which one of the hemispheres becomes specialized in silent reading - is a late development in humankind's evolution, and that the process by which this function develops is still changing.” MindStillsReadingProcessConsciousnessStudyDevelopmentEvolutionLateFunctionSilentHumankindControversialPsychologistHemisphere Author:Alberto Manguel
“Yes, evolution by descent from a common ancestor is clearly true.

“Organized religion has a part in the evolution of personal religion. It is the material upon which personal religion is grafted, but the process of grafting must be individual. Every human soul must, through thought, prayer, and study, cultivate his [sic] own religion to suit himself.” HumansSoulReligionIndividualProcessWomenPrayerStudyMaterialsEvolutionSuitsOrganizedHuman SoulOrganized ReligionGrafting Author:Lily Montagu
“How shall we define occultism? The word is derived from the Latin occultus, hidden; so that it is the study of the hidden laws of nature. Since all the great laws of nature are in fact working in the invisible world far more than in the visible, occultism involves the acceptance of a much wider view of nature than that which is ordinarily taken. The occultist, then, is a man who studies all the laws of nature that he can reach or of which he can hear, and as a result of his study he identifies himself with these laws and devotes his life to the service of evolution.” MenWorldFactsLawResultsViewsStudyTakenAcceptanceEvolutionInvisibleVisibleLatinLaws Of Nature Author:Charles Webster Leadbeater
“The entire hominid collection known today would barely cover a billiard table, ... the collection is so tantalizingly incomplete, and the specimens themselves often so fragmented and inconclusive, that more can be said about what is missing than about what is present. ...but ever since Darwin's work inspired the notion that fossils linking modern man and extinct ancestor would provide the most convincing proof of human evolution, preconceptions have led evidence by the nose in the study of fossil man.” MenHumansSaidTodayKnownStudyModernMissingEvolutionEvidenceTablesInspiredNotionProofNosesCollectionsAncestorFossilsConvincingIncompleteModern ManPreconceptionsFragmentedHuman EvolutionHominidsConvincing Evidence Author:John Reader

“Judaism, Christianity, Islam, all of these are branches, the root is love and that's where I went. I went straight to the root, I forgot the branches and I went straight to the root so that is how I see it, that is after I said of research and study and going through different phases of mental evolution, mental and consciousness evolution, not just believing in a book, believing in a certain idea, being willing to think for yourself and formulate your own ideas.” ThinkingBelieveSaidBookIdeasDifferentCertainConsciousnessChristianityStudyWillingEvolutionResearchRootsIslamBranchesPhasesJudaismThink For Yourself Author:Ziggy Marley
