• A mis jóvenes amigos de ahí fuera: La vida puede ser grande, pero no cuando no puedes verla. Así que, abrid los ojos a la vida: para verla con los vivos colores que Dios nos dio como un precioso regalo a Sus hijos, para disfrutar de la vida al máximo, y para hacer que cuente. Di sí a tu vida.

• In my former life I was in insider, as much as anybody else. And I knew what it's like, and I still know what it's like to be an insider. It's not bad, it's not bad. Now I'm being punished for leaving the special club and revealing to you the terrible things that are going on having to do with America. Because I used to be part of the club, I'm the only one that can fix it.

• La última vez que estuve en Chile, me hipnotizó un amigo que está estudiando para ser curandero, quien me llevó al pasado a través de varias encarnaciones. Sin embargo, no fue fácil volver al presente, ya que mi amigo no había llegado a esa parte del curso, pero el experimento mereció la pena porque descubrí que en vidas anteriores no fui Gengis Kan, como cree mi madre.

• ¿No sientes que a veces en la vida las amistades comienzan por antipatía, a veces por indiferencia, y a veces por ese repentino magnetismo de la simpatía, como si en alguna vida anterior hubiéramos estado muy cerca y nos hubiéramos querido mucho, y sólo estuviéramos retomando los hilos de nuevo, y para tales dos almas no existe la sensación de que sean extrañas?

• I'm 36 and if I met a woman of my own age and married her, I'd also be marrying her former life, her past. It might be OK for some people - I don't want to judge it or anything - but it's not for me. It would destroy my creativity.

• Life is very difficult. It seems right to me sometimes that we should follow our strongest feelings; but then such feelings continually come across the ties that all our former life has made for us,--the ties that have made others dependent on us,--and would cut them in two.

• If your primary focus is to get over your health problems or get past a relationship crisis so that you can return to your former life and old patterns- that is, get back to business as usual-you are not really living. The distinction is paradoxical and sometimes subtle. It's the difference between walking through your life on your way to somewhere, and walking as your life. Even if you believe that where you want to get is extremely important, that destination is secondary. Your immediate experience is what really matters. It is your life.

• "Por eso existe la alquimia", dijo el chico. "Para que cada uno busque su tesoro, lo encuentre y luego quiera ser mejor de lo que fue en su vida anterior. El plomo desempeñará su papel hasta que el mundo ya no necesite más plomo; y entonces el plomo tendrá que convertirse en oro. Eso es lo que hacen los alquimistas. Demuestran que, cuando nos esforzamos por ser mejores de lo que somos, todo lo que nos rodea también se vuelve mejor".

• And only the enlightened can recall their former lives; for the rest of us, the memories of past existences are but glints of light, twinges of longing, passing shadows, disturbingly familiar, that are gone before they can be grasped, like the passage of that silver bird on Dhaulagiri.

• Besides, I'd seen a really nice pair of shoes yesterday in the mall and I wanted them for my own. I can't describe the feeling of immediate familiarity that rushed between us. The moment I clapped eyes on them I felt like I already owned them. I could only suppose that we were together in a former life. That they were my shoes when I was a serving maid in medieval Britain or when I was a princess in ancient Egypt. Or perhaps they were the princess and I was the shoes. Who's to know? Either way I knew that we were meant to be together.

• There is a stage you reach, Deagle thinks, a time somewhere in early middle age, when your past ceases to be about yourself. Your connection to your former life is like a dream or delirium, and that person who you once were is merely a fond acquaintance, or a beloved character from a storybook. This is how memory becomes nostalgia. They are two very different things - the same way that a person is different from a photograph of a person.

• We all return. It is this certainty that gives meaning to life and it does not make the slightest difference whether or not in a later incarnation we remember the former life. What counts is not the individual and his comfort, but the great aspiration to the perfect and the pure which goes on in each incarnation.

• Incluso cuando el cambio es electivo, te desorientará. Puede sufrir ansiedad. Echarás de menos aspectos de tu vida anterior. No importa. El truco está en saber de antemano que cualquier cambio importante te va a desorientar. Así te preparas para esta inevitable desorientación y te mantienes firme para superarla. Entonces aceptas el reto, haces el cambio y alcanzas tu sueño.
