Daniel Pinchbeck Quotes About Consciousness

• I think a lot of people who were addicts are actually people who had that strong innate need to experience non-ordinary states of consciousness. But because our society has turned into this destructive culture of these horrible drugs that nullify you, they have that experience in a negative way. And then they lose that capacity forever, to have it in a positive way.

• El universo es una emanación de la mente. A medida que la conciencia humana evoluciona en una espiral acelerada, nos vemos obligados a darnos cuenta de que nuestras mentes manifiestan la realidad en una medida cada vez mayor: nuestras proyecciones colectivas de sombras de tecnologías derrochadoras, guerras y armamento reflejan regiones interiores más sutiles de nuestra psique y los engaños discordantes en nuestras relaciones íntimas. Si esta interpretación es válida, nos impone una responsabilidad concomitante, una grave carga.

• If consciousness is the ground of being rather than an epiphenomenon of physical processes, we may find that a basic question asked by modern astronomy and space science- 'Is there life out there?'- should be rephrased. Organic life, as well as intelligence, may already be a property enmeshed in the fabric of the cosmos, brought to fruition through the spiraling dynamics of the solar system and the galaxy, built into the structure of the universe itself.

• As a German philosopher writing in the aftermath of the Nazi regime, Marcuse understood the sleep inducing force of indoctrination, its power to make people forget and forfeit their own real interests. "The fact that the vast majority of the population accepts, and is made to accept, this society does not render it less irrational and less reprehensible," he wrote. "The distinction between true and false consciousness, real and immediate interest still is meaningful."

• The unbroken realization that you are indivisible from the universe, from universal consciousness, from the source of everything - that you are that source, that there is no other, no second, nothing that is not part of that unity, except as transitory illusion. If you could maintain that realization at all times, through waking and sleeping states of consciousness, across the threshold of death itself, what would you be?
