thinking psychics woven
No one can deny that a network (a world network) of economic and psychic affiliations is being woven at ever increasing speed which envelops and constantly penetrates more deeply within each of us. With every day that passes it becomes a little more impossible for us to act or think otherwise than collectively.
distance thinking profound
At a finite distance in the future, a critical state of encounter will occur, an ultimate co-reflective Center. A focused conspiration will allure individual persons to identify with others in profound affinity. Because of thinking altogether, love will grow into Divinity.
thinking years unbroken
The human person is the sum total of a 15 billion year chain of unbroken evolution now thinking about itself
thinking unity layers
And now, as a germination of planetary dimensions, comes the thinking layer which over its full extent develops and intertwines its fibres, not to confuse and neutralise them but to reinforce them in the living unity of a single tissue.
reflection thinking ideas
The idea is that of the earth not only becoming covered with myriad grains of thought, but becoming enclosed in a single thinking envelope so as to form, functionally, no more than a single vast grain of thought on the sidereal scale, the plurality of individual reflections grouping themselves together and reinforcing one another in the act of a single unanimous reflection...A new domain of psychical expansion- that is what we lack. And it is staring us in the face if we would only raise our heads to look at it.
believe men thinking
You have told me, O God, to believe in hell. But you have forbidden me to think...of any man as damned
life spiritual positive-thinking
We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience.
duty limits men proceed though women
It is our duty as men and women to proceed as though the limits of our abilities do not exist.
doe world god-love
God loves everyone in the world who doesn't love himself. Does God love God?
becoming capable
Not everything is immediately good to those who seek God; but everything is capable of becoming good.
real mean passion
The phrase 'Sense of the Earth' should be understood to mean the passionate concern for our common destiny which draws the thinking part of life ever further onward. The only truly natural and real human unity is the spirit of the Earth. . . .The sense of Earth is the irresistable pressure which will come at the right moment to unite them (humankind) in a common passion.The Age of Nations is past. The task before us now, if we would not perish, is to build the Earth.
wine reality suffering
Since once again, O Lord, in the steppes of Asia, I have no bread, no wine, no altar, I will raise myself above those symbols to the pure majesty of reality, and I will offer to you, I, your priest, upon the altar of the entire earth, the labor and the suffering of the world.
faces difficult staring
It often happens that what stares us in the face is the most difficult to perceive.
technology connections tasks
We now know from neural-net technology that when there are more connections between points in a system, and there is greater strength between these connections, there will be sudden leaps in intelligence, where intelligence is defined as success rate in performing a task.
