A A Bailey ‘The Unfinished Biography’

Death and soul consciousness
‘Death is a touch of the Soul which is too strong for the body’

Martin Buber ‘I and Thou’

Space and infinity
‘All real living is meeting…Meeting is not in time and space but space and
time in meeting’.

Anon

Time and eternity
Time is a way of stopping everything from happening at once

Zen mondo

One windy day, two monks were arguing about a flapping banner. The first
said, ‘I say the banner is moving, not the wind’. The second said, ‘I say the
wind is moving, not the banner. A third monk passed by and said, ‘the
wind is not moving. The banner is not moving. Your minds are moving’.

Carl Jung ‘Psychology and Religion: West and East’

‘It is almost an absurd prejudice to suppose that existence can only be
physical. As a matter of fact, the only form of existence of which we have
immediate knowledge is psychic (i.e. in the mind). We might as well say,
on the contrary, that physical existence is a mere inference, since we
know of matter only in so far as we perceive psychic images mediated by
the senses’.

Sir Arthur Eddington, ‘Science and the Unseen World’

‘Science no longer identifies reality with the physical universe, for mind
and consciousness belong to the unseen world’
