belief methodology belief-systems
Science is methodology. As a belief system it's disastrous.
intelligent self errors
The universe is a self-organizing, intelligent, creative, trial-and-error learning, participatory, interactive, non-locally interconnected and evolving system.
unity flesh saws
I experienced an ecstasy of unity. I not only saw the connectedness, I felt it and experienced it sentiently. The restraints and boundaries of flesh and bone fell away.
thinking latches i-can
I'd like to discover Truth - when I can latch on to something that I think is true.
views space earth
My view of our planet was a glimpse of divinity.
moving civilization self
Understanding is becoming aware of the fact that civilization itself is in trouble and we have done it by overpopulating the planet, and by moving toward self-service and greed. These sort of things are directly the wrong approach.
real want needs
We all know that UFOs are real. All we need to ask is where do they come from, and what do they want?
zero littles matter
The quantum fluctuations within a zero-point field can start the process that builds the process, which builds into matter, an irreversible process. We have some evidence that suggests that. We don't have a Big Bang, but we have a lot of little pops! A continuous set of little pops!
waiting understanding unity
Our success and our understanding is that all beings are right inside, the deeper we go inside ourselves. There's a saying that Unity uses that I have always liked: "Let there be peace on earth, and let it begin with me." We all have to be a part of this. We have to be the initiator. We can't wait.
country evil citizens
To kill a citizen of our own country is evil, but to kill a citizen of another country is 'good.'
live-life profound feelings
The desire to live life to its fullest, to acquire more knowledge, to abandon the economic treadmill, are all typical reactions to these experiences in altered states of consciousness. The previous fear of death is typically quelled. If the individual generally remains thereafter in the existential state of awareness, the deep internal feeling of eternity is quite profound and unshakable.
blanket blanket-statements i-can
I am very, very incredulous about what I see. I can't throw caveats in. I don't make blanket statements.
creativity intuition world
We need to make the world safe for creativity and intuition, for it's creativity and intuition that will make the world safe for us.
mean moon civilization
Certainly whatever climate change and global warming means, we've got a big issue here. Right now, this civilization or this period that we're in is probably going to need the resources off our planet, perhaps the resources from the asteroids, perhaps there will be some on the moon, perhaps some on Mars that we can utilize for our own uses here.
