Quotes from This Download:

“It is not unusual that when people have a real taste of freedom the ego starts to mount an attack—it can be fear or terror, or something much more subtle, like boredom and distractions.”

“Illusion works because it seems totally real.”

“Ask yourself, ‘What would it be if clarity was to speak now?’ Very often you’ll find in that moment, your speaking arises from stillness, as if you’re being spoken to.”
