Brian L. Weiss
“—Nuestra tarea consiste en aprender, en llegar a ser como dioses mediante el conocimiento. ¡Es tan poco lo que sabemos! Tú estás aquí para ser mi maestro. Tengo mucho que aprender. Por el conocimiento nos acercamos a Dios, y entonces podemos descansar. Luego retornamos para enseñar y ayudar a otros.”
Brian L. Weiss, Muchas Vidas, Muchos Sabios

“Although the members of the six categories were legally prohibited from mixing, there was, of course, a whole lot of boinking and raping going on, so mixing was inevitable. Interestingly, the Spanish crown was desperate for money, so they allowed successful members from the lower castes to purchase exemptions. You could actually buy your whiteness. I wonder how many people today would line up for that shit. I can imagine Latinx Trump supporters coming out in droves. Assholes.”

“—Que debemos compartir nuestro conocimiento con otros. Que todos tenemos muchas más capacidades de las que utilizamos. Algunos lo descubrimos antes que otros. Que uno debe dominar sus vicios antes de llegar a este punto. De lo contrario, los lleva consigo a otra vida. Sólo uno mismo puede liberarse . . . de las malas costumbres que acumulamos cuando estamos en un cuerpo. Los Maestros no pueden hacerlo por nosotros. Si uno elige luchar y no liberarse, los llevará a otra vida. Y sólo cuando decidimos que somos lo bastante fuertes como para dominar los problemas externos, sólo entonces dejaremos de padecerlos en la vida siguiente.”
Brian L. Weiss, Muchas Vidas, Muchos Sabios

“Now in my late thirties, I love indulging my feminine sensibilities. For too long, I not only feared them, I didn’t think I deserved to feel pretty or beautiful. Growing up poor, there was a part of me that believed I didn’t deserve to spend time or money on what seemed frivolous. I never saw my mother spend money on herself. I remember that she had one Mary Kay lipstick that she always wore to family parties. Even now when she buys herself something that could be considered unnecessary, she tries to give it away. I learned to deny myself pleasure also.”

“To exert control over their colonies, the Spanish commissioned paintings to illustrate different racial distinctions. As the cultural historian John Charles Chasteen describes in his book Born in Blood and Fire, a person’s caste was recorded in their baptismal register, and those of lower (and darker-skinned) castes were legally barred from, among other things, becoming priests, owning weapons, attending university, and even wearing silk.”
