""The fourth close application of mindrulness is quite extraordinary because we we are making sense of the world by observing from inside out rather than from outside in."
"Nevertheless, there are intelligent people so indoctrinated in the tennets of scientific materialism that they ignore or dismiss introspection as a valuable method for exploring the mind."" — Dec 13, 2016 02:43AM

“About dreams. It is usually taken for granted that you dream of something that has made a particularly strong impression on you during the day, but it seems to me it´s just the contrary. Often it´s something you paid no attention to at the time -- a vague thought that you didn´t bother to think out to the end, words spoken without feeling and which passed unnoticed -- these are the things that return at night, clothed in flesh and blood, and they become the subjects of dreams, as if to make up for having been ignored during waking hours.”
