Part 5 Quote 5
“Scientists go to the brain to get to the mind. But neuroscience has never been able to adequately define consciousness. It’s like the guy who loses his keys and is looking for them under a streetlight. Someone comes along and asks him where he lost them, and he says, ‘back in the alley.’ The passer-by asks, ‘So why are you looking here?’ and he says, ‘The light’s better here.'”
Part 5 Quote 4
“Enlightened beings say that when we take birth, a veil of unknowing covers our soul, lest the knowledge of our previous incarnations distract us from our work in this life. The veil is part of māya, the illusion of separateness that accompanies incarnation, and comes with having a body and an individual consciousness. Each of us has to go through the lila, the dance, of forgetting and remembering.”
Part 5 Quote 3
“Almost everyone in the West who reports a near-death experience tells of a loving, light-filled return to the Source, the home of the soul. They report an experience of wholeness outside time and space…. I imagine that death is like finally coming home, home to an old friend who has always known me and loved me completely.”
Part 5 Quote 2
“I love nature, and that love is a method, an entrance into the vastness…. I am the trees, I am the ocean, we are together in the One, in Ram.”
Part 5 Quote 1
“Love holds the universe together. Love is the emotion of connection and merging. Viewed from the soul, this world is a manifestation of love. Love is the glue, the transfer of energy between form and formless, matter and spirit.”
