neti neti Posted August 30, 2018 "By constantly monitoring thought itself, it will not only lead you nowhere, it will give you a headache. So try not to do that; instead, try to do something that's way outside of the box. Like, someplace that, if you were to see how far away from the box you were, you wouldn't even be able to tell what that box was anymore, compared to the landscape that you're comparing it against." ~Reggie Watts 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

neti neti Posted September 4, 2018 "A man is the facade of a temple wherein all wisdom and all good abide. What we commonly call man, the eating, drinking, planting, counting man, does not, as we know him, represent himself, but misrepresents himself. Him we do not respect, but the soul, whose organ he is, would he let it appear through his action, would make our knees bend. When it breathes through his intellect, it is genius; when it breathes through his will, it is virtue; when it flows through his affection, it is love. And the blindness of the intellect begins, when it would be something of itself. The weakness of the will begins, when the individual would be something of himself. All reform aims, in some one particular, to let the soul have its way through us; in other words, to engage us to obey." ~Emerson, The Oversoul 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
