“This place is a dream
only a sleeper considers it real
then death comes like dawn
and you wake up laughing
at what you thought
was your grief.” —Rumi (via nirvikalpa)

“So many dreams are crowding upon me now that I can scarcely tell true from false: dreams like light imprisoned in bright mineral caves; hot, heavy dreams; ice-age dreams; dreams like machines in the head.”
—— Anna Kavan (via xezene)
“Everything’s alright, form is emptiness and emptiness is form, and we’re here forever, in one form or another, which is empty. Everything’s alright, we’re not here, there, or anywhere. Everything’s alright, cats sleep.”
—Jack Kerouac (via welcometogypsyland)
“If one drives the mind far enough, one is eventually faced with the choice between nihilism and faith.”
—Gareth Knight, in A Practical Guide to Qabalistic Symbolism
“We have all forgotten what we really are… All that we call spirit and art and ecstasy only means that for one awful instant we remember that we forget.”
—G.K. Chesterton (via metaconscious)
“Nature loves courage. You make the commitment and nature will respond to that commitment by removing impossible obstacles. This is the trick. This is what all these teachers and philosophers who really counted, who really touched the alchemical gold, this is what they understood. This is the shamanic dance in the waterfall. This is how magic is done. By hurling yourself into the abyss and discovering its a feather bed.”
—Terence McKenna (via astral-travel)
