Into the Infinite: Schrödinger Funnies

Quotes

"Suchness is above existence and non-existence and both and neither."
- Walter Stace

"What is sold today as spirituality and self work is quite the opposite of what the classical esoteric traditions have passed down."
- Bernhard Guenther (from the video Know Thyself)

"What is life? It is the flash of a firefly in the night. It is the breath of a buffalo in the wintertime. It is the little shadow which runs across the grass and loses itself in the sunset."
- Chief Crowfoot

"The very fact that we exist rather than not, that anything at all exists rather than never having existed, and that we can be fully conscious of existing, is a realization both Leibniz and Heidegger claimed to be the root of all philosophical thought, as well as the foundation of all endeavors of spiritual awakening."
- Lew Paz

"There is no coming to consciousness without pain. People will do anything, no matter how absurd, in order to avoid facing their own soul. One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious."
- Carl Jung

"Advances in physics from Newton's discovery of universal gravitation to 20th-century developments in quantum mechanics and relativity theory have undermined the classical commonsense conceptions of matter to such an extent that reducibility of mind to matter is anything but straightforward, and hardly a foregone conclusion."
- Edward F. Kelly
