“A saint is simply a human being whose soul has ... grown up to its full stature, by full and generous response to its environment, God.

“It was a truism that all civilizations were basically neurotic until they made contact with everybody else and found their place within the ever-changing meta-civilisation of other beings, because, until then, during the stage when they honestly believed they might be entirely alone in existence, all solo societies were possessed of both an inflated sense of their own importance and a kind of existential terror at the sheer scale and apparent emptiness of the universe.” KindMadeMightUniverseFoundExistenceStageCivilizationImportanceTerrorHonestlyScalesContactEmptinessPossessedExistentialSheerSoloNeuroticCivilisationTruism Author:Iain Banks
“My observation of the Universe convinces me that there are beings of intelligence and power of a far higher quality than anything we can conceive of as human; that they are not necessarily based on the cerebral and nervous structures that we know, and that the one and only chance for mankind to advance as a whole is for individuals to make contact with such beings.” KnowsHumansWholeUniverseIndividualChanceQualityMankindHigherStructureContactNervousObservationConvinceCerebral Author:Aleister Crowley
“Meditation isn't just something we do to make ourselves more peaceful and to take some of the stress out of our lives. We do it because it's the only direct experience we can have of knowing God. Because God is that which is indivisible. Everything else in the universe, in the physical world, is divisible. Up and down, good and bad, right and wrong, male and female, and so on. But that which is indivisible in our physical experience is called silence. And when you get into silence, you're coming to know the indivisibleness of your life - and that's conscious contact.” KnowsWorldUniverseSilenceKnowingOur LivesMeditationConsciousFemaleDirectStressMalesContactPeacefulGood And BadUp And DownKnowing GodIndivisible Author:Wayne Dyer
