Gwen StefaniThat we do not discover reality but rather invent it is quite shocking for many people. And the shocking part about it - according to the concept of radical constructivism - is that the only thing we can ever know about the real reality (if it even exists) is what it is not.

We overlook the spaciousness that it is all happening in.

Harbhajan Singh YogiWe in the "developed" world seem to have many auditory strategies that insulate us from the presence of silence, simplicity, and solitude.
