“I wonder what you mean when you use the word ‘I’? I have been very interested in this problem for a long long time; and I have come to the conclusion that what most civilized people mean by that word is a hallucination, that is to say, a false sense of personal identity that is at complete variance with the facts of Nature. And as a result of having a false sense of identity we act in a way that is inappropriate to our natural environment, and when that inappropriate way of action is magnified by a very powerful technology we swiftly begin to see the results of a profound discord between man and Nature.” ~Alan Watts Posted on March 23, 2015 by underthebluedoor Posted in General, Quotes Leave a comment
“If the masses started to accept UFOs, it would profoundly affect their attitude towards life, politics, everything. It would threaten the status quo. Whenever people come to realize that there are larger considerations than their own petty lives, they are ripe to make radical changes on a personal level, which would eventually lead to a political revolution in society as a whole.” ~ John Lennon Posted on March 23, 2015 by underthebluedoor Posted in Check It Out, General, photography, Quotes 2 Comments
“The drama of a dying world has been turned into a soap opera for most people. And they don’t understand that it’s their story. And that they will eat it in the final act if somewhere between here and the final act, they don’t stand up on their hind legs and howl. Claim your identity. Claim your being. Claim your vision and your intuition. And then act from that, cleanly, without regret.” ~Terence McKenna Posted on March 22, 2015 by underthebluedoor Posted in Art, General, Quotes Leave a comment Image by Antonio Mora Source~ Do It Girl
“The handmade life is calling us to live a new way – designing, crafting, creating on our own terms. It is a consciousness of the spirit, an attunement to our deepest dreams and longings – connecting us to what is most important, rather than passively accepting what is as what will always be. As the constrictive tendrils of an old life continue to lose their grip, a new confidence and sureness is coming in. It is both a fierceness, grounded in truth and earned wisdom, and a vulnerability that is slowly opening, surrendering, wanting to be seen. A sense of lightness and excitement washes over me on this first day of spring. I feel tremendous gratitude for the gift of renewal, of re-birth, and to know that I can create this new life. I will. I am.” ~Kristen Roderick Posted on March 21, 2015 by underthebluedoor Posted in Art, General, Quotes Leave a comment Art by Jimmy Lawlor
