True Mysticism


"True mysticism is 
active and practical,
not passive and theoretical. 

It is an organic life-process, 
something which the
whole self does; 
not something as to
which its intellect 
holds an opinion."

- William James (1842 - 1910)

Transmuted Symbols


"The physical object, to me, 
is merely a stepping stone
to an inner world where the object,
with the help of the subconscious drives 
and focuses perceptions,
becomes transmuted into 
a symbol whose life is beyond the
life of the objects we know."

- Clarence J. Laughlin (1905 - 1985)

Mysterious Reality


"We know that behind every image revealed there is another image more faithful to reality, and in the back of that image there is another, and yet another behind the last one, and so on, up to the true image of that absolute, mysterious reality that no one will ever see."

- Michelangelo Antonioni (1912 - 2007)

Soul of Objects


"Nature is not matter only,
she is also spirit.
Spirit seems to be the
 inside of things...
the soul of objects."

- C. G. Jung (1875-1961)

Quiet Mind


"When the mind is
very quiet, 
completely still,
when there is not a movement 
of thought and therefore no experience,
no observer, then that very stillness 
has its own creative understanding.
In that stillness the mind is 
transformed into something else."

- Jiddu Krishnamurti (1895 - 1986)

Things Unknown


"There are things known
and there are things unknown,
and in between are
the doors of perception" 

Aldous Huxley (1894-1963)
