“COMING FORTH INTO THE LIGHT

I was born the day
I thought:
What is?
What was?
And
What if?

I was transformed the day
My ego shattered,
And all the superficial, material
Things that mattered
To me before,
Suddenly ceased
To matter.

I really came into being
The day I no longer cared about
What the world thought of me,
Only on my thoughts for
Changing the world.”
Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

T.F. Hodge
“One who will not accept solitude, stillness and quiet recurring moments...is caught up in the wilderness of addictions; far removed from an original state of being and awareness. This is 'dis-ease.”
T.F. Hodge, From Within I Rise: Spiritual Triumph over Death and Conscious Encounters With the Divine Presence

“I am in a charming state of confusion.”
Ada Lovelace

Clarice Lispector
“Beyond thought I reach a state. I refuse to divide it up into words - and what I cannot and do not want to express ends up being the most secret of my secrets. I know that I'm scared of the moments in which I don't use thought and that's a momentary state that is difficult to reach, and which, entirely secret, no longer uses words with which thoughts are produce. Is not using words to lose your identity? is it getting lost in the harmful essential shadows?”
Clarice Lispector

“When the ancients beheld the night sky, they didn't see another place, they saw another state of being.”
Dana Hutton, The Art of Becoming: Creating Abiding Fulfillment in an Unfulfilled World

“We live in the present with knowledge that the past is alive in us – our history speaks to us. The future represents an idea or expectations that influence our present state of mind.”
Kilroy J. Oldster, Dead Toad Scrolls

Craig Krishna
“Meditation has also been proven scientifically to untangle and rewire the neurological pathways in the brain that make up the conditioned personality. Buddhist monks, for example, have had their brains scanned by scientists as they sat still in deep altered states of consciousness invoked by transcendental meditation and the scientists were amazed at what they beheld. The frontal lobes of the monks lit up as bright as the sun! They were in states of peace and happiness the scientists had never seen before. Meditation invokes that which is known in neuroscience as neuroplasticity; which is the loosening of the old nerve cells or hardwiring in the brain, to make space for the new to emerge. Meditation, in this sense, is a fire that burns away the old or conditioned self, in the Bhagavad Gita, this is known as the Yajna;

“All karma or effects of actions are completely burned away from the liberated being who, free from attachment, with his physical mind enveloped in wisdom (the higher self), performs the true spiritual fire rite.”
Craig Krishna, The Labyrinth: Rewiring the Nodes in the Maze of your Mind

Joe Dispenza

“After one divorce and other on the way I am seriously considering a ME-rriage now and.t's going to be epic! I will ask my hand in meTRInomy, for it will become a trigamy. And me, my higher self and third I will live happily ever after life...We will live in threesomeness!”
Ana Claudia Antunes, The Tao of Physical and Spiritual

“Unlike the laws of reality that scientist describe in complex mathematical equations, the laws that govern human behavior are imprecise and in constant flux. We are complex organisms because we possess the capacity to experience, recall, and imagine. We are self-constructed. How we think becomes our reality. The highest act of human intelligence is not building bombs and inventing poisons that can destroy the world, but engaging in acts of contemplation that expands human consciousness.”
Kilroy J. Oldster, Dead Toad Scrolls

“Change your state of being and your experience will follow.”
Raphael Zernoff, Being Yourself, Riding the Wave of Change

“When we understand who we are, and how our realities work, we can choose more consciously to shape our lives in an optimal way.
Knowledge of oneself is the very key to a happy life. Happiness is not something outside of our own consciousness that needs to be earned, and achieved. It is a choice that needs to be supported by positive actions. It is not enough to say that we want to be happy. Our desire of happiness, love and peace, needs to be supported by our state of being.”
Raphael Zernoff

Rachel Kushner
“Δύσκολο ακόμα και να μιλήσεις γι' αυτό", μου είπε. "Αισθάνομαι αλλαγμένη. Πες πως είμαι ένα πουλόβερ. Και πιάνεται ένα νήμα που έχει ξεφύγει και τραβιέται και αρχίζει να ξετυλίγεται το πουλόβερ και δε μένει παρά μονάχα ένας μεγάλος μαλακός σωρός από το νήμα. Μπορείς να κάνεις κάτι μ' αυτό, με τον σωρό από το νήμα, αλλά δε θα γίνει ποτέ ξανά πουλόβερ. Αυτή είναι η κατάσταση των πραγμάτων".”
Rachel Kushner, The Flamethrowers

Henna Inam
“Our being is more important than our doing. We are human beings, acting as though we are human doings. In our frenzied doing, we are often not conscious of our state of being. Yet our deepest impact comes from our state of being because it is at the root of our intentions, our choices, and our behavior.”
Henna Inam, Wired for Authenticity: Seven Practices to Inspire, Adapt, & Lead

“We cannot have it all. We must live with our limitations. We cannot hold onto life with higher esteem than it deserves. We live only once, a life best served by dedicating ourselves to reducing the suffering of others, not inflicting evilness, taking satisfaction in just being, and recognizing the glory of nature.”
Kilroy J. Oldster, Dead Toad Scrolls

Kathleen Tessaro
“Heaven isn't a place, Fanning!...Why does everyone assume it's a destination - some cerebral version of Grand Central Station? It's a state of being! The unshakeable certainty of who you are and where you fit in the world! The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune aside, we suffer most when we try to be someone or something we're not." (page 220)”
Kathleen Tessaro, Rare Objects

Robin S. Baker
