Roberto Calasso
“Sacrifice requires perfect awareness of destruction: if this clear-sighted attention is missing, there is no sacrifice. For technology it's enough to justify with claims about its practical utility.”
Roberto Calasso, The Ruin of Kasch

“Usually what keeps us from this experience of heaven on earth is the sum of all the memories and associated beliefs we hold that make us conclude that we are unworthy of love, and / or have been banished by God. It’s a classic case of anthropocentric projection in which it is actually our own ongoing criticism and judgement of ourselves that reinforces our experience of duality and separation.”
Estelle Gillingham, Be Who You Came To Be: How to Connect with your Soul's True Wisdom to Find Your Purpose, Gifts and Power

Ichiro Kishimi
“The birth of society is, in other words, the birth of suffering.”
Ichiro Kishimi, The Courage to be Happy: True Contentment Is In Your Power

Ichiro Kishimi
“The past you speak of is nothing more than a story skilfully compiled by ‘you now’. Please understand this point.”
Ichiro Kishimi, The Courage to be Happy: True Contentment Is In Your Power

Ichiro Kishimi
“PHILOSOPHER: Instead of seeking approval, one has to approve oneself, with one’s own mind.”
Ichiro Kishimi, The Courage to be Happy: True Contentment Is In Your Power
