It is loneliness that leads to thoughts, thoughts to curiosity, and curiosity to discovery and realisation.

In China, they say it is far better to travel a thousand miles than read 10,000 books. I believe them.
You could say it's an accident that I was ideally suited for the work I am doing. It's the feeling of a bowstring being pulled back for 24 years and suddenly being let go. I've always been attracted to ideas that were about revolt against authority. I like ideas about the breaking away or overthrowing of established order. I am interested in anything about revolt, disorder, chaos - especially activity that seems to have no meaning. It seems to me to be the road toward freedom - external revolt is a way to bring about internal freedom. Rather than starting inside, I start outside - reach the mental through the physical. I am a Libran - if astrology has anything to do with it... - JM
Love is right. It starts in my body and then moves to the sky. Every so-called mistake is sacred. Every false lead is a blessing that brings me closer to the real. I keep watching my illusions go up in flames, truth soon cools me in its indubitable way. I don't ask anybody how I should live my life. I just live it my way. I am not saying that I will not make mistakes, I will. But I will try not to make the same mistake again and again. That's enough. I'll try and find a new mistake every day, and make it. That is the only way to learn, that is the only way for me to come to my own inner light.
