“To know by heart. Nobody becomes better simply by knowingand permanently memorising data, because the real goal is to teach how to thinkto encourage doubt, to inspire questions. Answers are not the truth, they seeka truth that will always be relative. Creative and curious people always havenew questions that, on the other hand, have been repeated since thedays of the greek philosophers: when, where, what, who, and why. Let us usememory only to recall the questions we asked as children… ¿what’s behind themirror?… that is the source that springs from the oasis of knowledge.”

“Settling for the view that illnesses, mental or physical, are primarily genetic allows us to avoid disturbing questions about the nature of the society in which we live. If “science” enables us to ignore poverty or man-made toxins or a frenetic and stressful social culture as contributors to disease, we can look only to simple answers: pharmacological and biological.”

“The problem with socialism is that it is a dehumanized sect that ceases to be unscrupulous people…and we already know what happened in the extermination camps of the Nazi regime, etc. etc. etc.”

““A therapist once said to me, “If you face the choice between feeling guilt and resentment, choose the guilt every time.” It is wisdom I have passed on to many others since. If a refusal saddles you with guilt, while consent leaves resentment in its wake, opt for the guilt. Resentment is soul suicide. Negative thinking allows us to gaze unflinchingly on our own behalf at what does not work.

We have seen in study after study that compulsive positive thinkers are more likely to develop disease and less likely to survive. Genuine positive thinking — or, more deeply, positive being — empowers us to know that we have nothing to fear from truth. “Health is not just a matter of thinking happy thoughts,” writes the molecular researcher Candace Pert. “Sometimes the biggest impetus to healing can come from jump-starting the immune system with a burst of long-suppressed anger.” Anger, or the healthy experience of it, is one of the seven A’s of healing. Each of the seven A’s addresses one of the embedded visceral beliefs that predispose to illness and undermine healing.””

“What Crowley's writing, what he was getting, what he was pointing to, is that the entire reason you are here is to do what, wathever you wanna call it, god, the divine mind, whatever, put you here to do. That's what he meant when he said "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law", it means if you do what you are here to do, everything else is going to fall into place, but before you know what your will is a lot of times, you have to go through the awakening process, you know, what they call enlightenment in the east, or crossing the abyss in the west. Well, whenever you go trough this process, suddenly everything that is not you, everything that is ego, starts to fall away, and you start to see what you truly are, and what you really truly are not. Now when that happens, it will cause profound changes in your life, because ninety nine percent of what we do in our lives is ego driven, and by ego i don´t mean when you think about people that are full of themselves, that's not what it means. Ego is anything within your psyche, anything within your consciousness that creates the illusion that you are separate from other people, from god, from the universe, from anything. Any sense of separation that you have is ego. Well, what happens whenever you transcend that, whenever that starts to disintegrate, whenever you start to see through the illusion of ego, you start to see what you're here for, and your first clue to what you're here for, for what your will is, is what really makes you happy, what is it that when you do you lose yourself in it, you get so immersed in it, that you don't thing about anything else, that's what your will is. Well, when you start to reach that point you start to look around you and realize the mess you've made of your life. It could be something as profound as, like, the example that i give as i've seen people that say whenever they go trough this process they realize they were born on the wrong sex, like "Suddenly i'm awake and i realize i don't want to be a man, i want to have the expierence of being a woman, that's what i'm here for", well, if you suppress that and you say that would upend my entire life, and you start pressing that down, then it's going to create psychic tension, force and pressure that is going to manifest in all sources of ways(Duncan answers: "Disease") it´s going to make you even more miserable in life… Yes! It could be anything from cancer to just all of your relationships to disintegrate, you lose your job, whatever it is because you are basically fighting againts god.”

“Young children cannot possibly understand the motives of adults. It means little to a young child that the parent feels love for him if that parent keeps disappearing at almost any time. The child experiences a sense of abandonment, a subliminal knowledge that there are things in the world much more important to the parent than he, the child, that he is not worthy of the parent’s attention. He begins to feel, at first unconsciously, that there must be something wrong with him. He also begins to work too hard to get his needs met: demanding contact, acting out or trying to please the parent to gain approval and attention.”
