“However, science, by its very nature, forms its own inherent boundaries to man’s progress. . . Focused as it is on the world out there, categorizing and measuring, theorizing and concluding all things based on external evidence and proof, science misses the core of life: the consciousness doing the experiencing.”
― Thomas Daniel Nehrer, Essence of Reality: A Clear Awareness of How Life Works

“There is no other force, no other determining factor, no external cause to the cohesive unfolding of your life’s episodes – only your composite inner nature. Change that and you change your life.”
― Thomas Daniel Nehrer, Essence of Reality: A Clear Awareness of How Life Works

“When, and only when, you clearly see the inner roots to an outer condition, can you change them and thus it.”
― Thomas Daniel Nehrer, Essence of Reality: A Clear Awareness of How Life Works

“Consider the sunlight. You may see it is near, yet if you follow it from world to world you will never catch it in your hands. Then you may describe it as far away and, lo, you will see it just before your eyes. Follow it and, behold, it escapes you; run from it and it follows you close. You can neither possess it nor have done with it. From this example you can understand how it is with the true Nature of all things and, henceforth, there will be no need to grieve or to worry about such things.”
