“Self awareness gives us ultimate human freedom.”

“Among the earliest forms of human self-awareness was the awareness of being meat.”

“Ultimate freedom has nothing to do with your life circumstances - it is the freedom of allowing the self to dissolve into the waves of the ocean. It is the freedom that is born through one's absolute trust in life.”

“Self-reliance is the only road to true freedom, and being one's own person is its ultimate reward”

“Human freedom involves our capacity to pause between the stimulus and response and, in that pause, to choose the one response toward which we wish to throw our weight. The capacity to create ourselves, based upon this freedom, is inseparable from consciousness or self-awareness. (p. 100)”

“I would like to make you more aware of yourself as a human, and thus, ultimately a better person.”
