“Humility starts within one's own structure. One is not one's whole structure. One is only an inhabitant of that structure” (John C. Lilly 1975, 7)

I say moreover: If the soul is to know
God it must forget itself and lose itself, for as long as it
contemplates self, it cannot contemplate God.
(Eckhart, 22)

For as the earth comes from the waters,
plants from the earth
and man from plants,
so man is speech
and speech is OM.
—Chandogya Upanishad
