La Formica Zen (italian Edition) ( )

Il maestro va usato e gettato via

RIALZATEVI! Il mondo là fuori ve lo sta maledettamente SPECCHIANDO! Ma solo ""chi avrà orecchie per udire e occhi per vedere"" saprà coglierlo.. Questo è il periodo in cui bisogna dire tutto in tutti i modi possibili per svegliare le persone... ◊◊◊◊◊◊ Il lavoro di risveglio…

Chi guarda dentro apre gli occhi

La vostra visione diventerà chiara solo quando guarderete nel vostro cuore. Chi guarda all'esterno, sogna. Chi guarda all'interno, apre gli occhi. (Carl Gustav Jung)

Per sognare bisogna svegliarsi

Se davvero volete sognare, svegliatevi… Daniel Pennac

Tu non sei colui che pensa

L’inizio della libertà è la realizzazione che tu non sei”colui che pensa”. Il momento in cui cominci ad osservare colui che pensa, si attiva un livello di coscienza più alto. Incominci a renderti ◊◊◊◊◊◊ conto che esiste un vasto regno di una intelligenza al di là del pensiero,e…

È la verità a trovare noi

Non siamo noi a trovare la Verità. È la Verità a trovare noi. Dobbiamo solo prepararci". "Si può invitare un ospite che non si conosce? No. Ma si può mettere la casa in ordine, così che, quando l'ospite arriva, si è pronti a riceverlo e a conoscerlo". Tizianio Terzani

Nishida Kitarō (stanford Encyclopedia Of Philosophy)

Self and other

Nishida maintains, the individual precisely as distinct entails a plurality of interrelated individuals. Where his previous analysis of individual self-awareness described it as a self- reflection of the universal of self-awareness, his description now incorporated the…

The Acid Diaries (Christopher Gray)

Everyone you see is asleep

Personally, as a young Marxist, religion had always been anathema to me, and it was only because I was ill in bed and couldn’t find anything else to read that I opened Ouspensky’s In Search of the Miraculous, a book I had been sedulously avoiding for years. But the psychology I…

Self-remembering and the thrill of direct action

To say I had briefly “woken up” would express perfectly what had happened. And as I read more of Ouspensky’s book, I realized I had known this strange state before. Falling in love had taken me there; so had Third World travel; so had political activism when it involved crime…

Waking up just long enough to know I'm asleep

WHAT “THE ACID” (as I was coming to think of it) had done was to blow my so-called spiritual trip out of the water. I saw that Advaita philosophy had become just a way of coasting along, vaguely assuring myself that I was consciousness itself from time to time. It had no…

Fear of death is the cement of slave society

I saw that I had not been so wide of the mark in the woods. Ultimately, fear of death is the cement of slave society—that’s at the root of our fear of freedom, and we’ll never get out of this mess until we have integrated both life and death in a higher unity. Because it’s…

Driving through myself

I LOOKED UP THE passage, the one I had remembered under the holly, from Suzanne Segal’s Collision with the Infinite: In the midst of a particularly eventful week, I was driving north to meet some friends when I suddenly became aware that I was driving through myself. For years…

Toddlers radiating silver light

I found myself—literally, as though I had just woken up—in the middle of Hampstead Village. I was standing in front of Christchurch, and in the forecourt of the church was a nursery school. The children were little more than toddlers, mostly two or three years old. They were…

Visionary versus mystical experience

In summary, I would suggest that, yes, psychedelics and the magic they access could possibly prove a key factor in the birth of a new universal religion. They are coming from an angle outflanking all our materialistic conditioning—and doing so with a speed and to a depth…

The Book: On The Taboo Against Knowing Who You Are

Don't try to get rid of the ego-sensation

Remember, above all, that an experience of this kind cannot be forced or made to happen by any act of your fictitious “will,” except insofar as repeated efforts to be one-up on the universe may eventually reveal their futility. Don’t try to get rid of the ego-sensation. Take…
