“The consciousness that says 'I am' is not the consciousness that thinks.”
“I am a consciousness. The landscape thinks itself through me. ”
“But yet I am firmly persuaded that a great deal of consciousness, every sort of consciousness, in fact, is a disease.”
“I am consciously surrendering conciousness.”
“When I say that consciousness is an illusion I do not mean that consciousness does not exist. I mean that consciousness is not what it appears to be. If it seems to be a continuous stream of rich and detailed experiences, happening one after the other to a conscious person, this is the illusion.”
“All forms of art are consciousness expanders, and I am convinced that they will take us further, and more consciously, than drugs.”
