Fortunately, some are born with spiritual immune systems that sooner or later give rejection to the illusory worldview grafted upon them from birth through social conditioning. They begin sensing that something is amiss, and start looking for answers. Inner knowledge and anomalous outer experiences show them a side of reality others are oblivious to, and so begins their journey of awakening. Each step of the journey is made by following the heart instead of following the crowd and by choosing knowledge over the veils of ignorance. - Henri Bergson
Most people suffer from a case of mistaken identity, a kind of cosmic amnesia. We identify with our social persona and dramas, forgetting that – at a deeper devel – we are each a unique creative expression of Life and the Universe. Identification with limited conceptions of who we are creates false divisions and limitations in our minds. It keeps us separated from each other and the greater community of Nature and Universe that we all belong to, that evolved and birthed us into being. Don’ believe everything you think. It’s important to connect directly with the embodied Universe that surrounds you and question limited beliefs society has planted in your head. - Tao & Zen
