[T]he experience of mystery comes not from expecting it but through yielding all your programs, because your programs are based on fear and desire. Drop them and the radiance comes. (16)

Myth is what we call other people's religion.

Myth is the secret opening through which the inexhaustible energies of the cosmos pour into human manifestation.

This death to the logic of emotional commitments of our chance moment in the world of space and time, this recognition of, the shift of our emphasis to, the universal life that throbs and celebrates its victory in the very kiss of our own annihilation, this amor fati, 'love of fate,' love of the fate that is inevitably death, constitutes the experience of the tragic art.

Find a place inside where there's joy, and the joy will burn out the pain.

Sin always finds it's root in our own selfish desires and self-gratification.

Dream is the personalized myth, myth the depersonalized dream.
