Friday Afternoon Quotage

"When the mind is silent, then reality comes of its own accord. When you are thinking and thinking, the world has got you, and you become worldly again. Self-inquiry causes the mind to be quiet."

--Robert Adams


"Everything changes when you start to emit your own frequency rather than absorbing the frequencies around you, when you start imprinting your intent on the universe rather than receiving an imprint from existence."

--Barbara Marciniak


"The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are."

--Carl Jung

Monday Evening Ponderable

"What am I, really? The beautiful thing…is nobody can tell us what we are. Nobody can really tell us. Not in a way that’s going to be satisfactory to us. Our true nature is self-authenticating. When we bump into our true nature, it authenticates itself. Something inside us knows. This…is what has been sought for, longed for, looked for. This is it. Usually, it’s not what we expected."

--Adyashanti

"Suffering helps us learn the needed lessons to grow in intelligence and consciousness because unless we suffer we don’t see the need to come out of suffering. Suffering allows us to change how we perceive reality and to recognize how our ego struggles to keep its will and self-identity alive."

--Eliza Mada Dalian

Sunday Afternoon Ponderables

"We are living in a culture entirely hypnotized by the illusion of time, in which the so-called present moment is felt as nothing but an infinitesimal hairline between an all-powerfully causative past and an absorbingly important future. We have no present. Our consciousness is almost completely preoccupied with memory and expectation. We do not realize that there never was, is, nor will be any other experience than present experience. We are therefore out of touch with reality. We confuse the world as talked about, described, and measured with the world which actually is. We are sick with a fascination for the useful tools of names and numbers, of symbols, signs, conceptions and ideas."

--Alan Watts


"The truth is always good, isn’t it, even if it is uncomfortable? And lies, real lies, can’t ever be good in the long run, can they?"

--Thrasymachus
