' Spiritual Immune Systems '...

A Fortunately,, some are born with spiritual immune systems, that sooner or later give rejection, to the illusory worldview grafted upon then from birth,, through social conditioning... They begin sensing that something is amiss,, and start looking for answers... Inner knowledge and anomalous outer experiences, show them a side of reality, others are oblivious to,, and so begins the journey of Awakening... Each step of the journey, is made by following the heart, instead of the crowd,, and by choosing knowledge ,over veils of ignorance... ------------------ Henri Bergson

' Discovering Fire for the Second Time '...

Someday,, after mastering the winds,, the waves,, the tides, and gravity,, we shall harness for God,, the energies of love,, and then,, for a second time in the history of the world,, man will have discovered fire.... ------------------ Pierre Teilhard de Chardin
