"The structure of any language cannot grasp the nature of unity consciousness any more than a fork could grasp the ocean. So the mystics must be content with pointing and showing a Way whereby we may all experience it for ourselves.They ask you to believe nothing on blind faith, to accept no authority but that of your own understanding and experience."

"In the woman's meditation the Self appeared as a deer, which said to the ego: I am your child and your mother. They call me the 'connecting animal' because I connect people, animals, and even stones with one another if I enter them. I am your fate or the 'objective I.' When I appear, I redeem you from the meaningless hazards of life. The fire burning inside me burns in the whole of nature. If a man loses it, he becomes egocentric, lonely, disoriented, and weak."
