    "Humanity sees God, or the idea of God, as it sees all things else, from the point of view which its degree of vision, knowledge, etc. affords it capacity to see, and no more.

    "Why should I wish to see God better than this day? I see something of God each hour of the twenty-four, and each moment then, In the faces of men and women I see God, and in my own face in the glass; I find letters from God dropped in the street, and every one is signed by God's name, And I leave them where they are, for I know that others will punctually come forever and ever."

    Thou unseen force incessant,
    In all, and over all, and through and under all,
    What subtle indirection and significance in you?
    What clue to all in you?
    What central heart—and you the pulse—vivifies all?
    What boundless aggregate of all?
    What mightier centre of the true, the good, the loving?

    The sum of all known reverence, the fountain of all naked theology,
    All religion, all worship, all the truth to which you are possibly eligible,
    I add up in you, whoever you are, and your inherent relations—
    Unless the Christ you talk so much of is present in yourselves, here and now, there is no Christ.

    I and this mystery here we stand,
    Sure as the most certain sure, affectionate, electrical.
    Lit with the infinite, I have the idea of the All,
    Joys of the thought of time and space and death, like waters flowing,
    Bear me indeed as through the regions infinite,
    Whose air I breathe, whose ripples hear, floating on vast and mystic currents—
    Through me the afflatus surging and surging, through me the current and index.

    True religion (the most beautiful thing in the whole world and the best part of any man’s or woman’s character) consists neither in rites or Bibles or sermons or Sundays—but in noiseless secret ecstasy and unremitted aspiration, in purity, in a good practical life, in charity to the poor and toleration to all."

    ~ Walt Whitman




    "You, yourself, are the eternal energy which appears as this Universe.

    Energy itself, as William Blake said, is eternal delight.

    “Everybody is ‘you’. Everybody is ‘I’. That’s our name. We all share that.”


    Alan Watts

    James Myers Thompson (September 27, 1906 – April 7, 1977) was an American novelist and screenwriter

    Quote “There are thirty-two ways to write a story, and I’ve used every one, but there is only one plot – things are not as they seem.”
    ― Jim Thompson
    Quote Things are not always what they seem; outward form deceives many; rare is the mind that discerns what is carefully concealed within.

    — Phaedrus


    Quote Looking at life from a different perspective makes you realize that it’s not the deer that is crossing the road, rather it’s the road that is crossing the forest.

    From your perspective, the entire history of the universe (past, present, future) happens in zero proper time. You experience the whole timeline of the cosmos instantaneously.
