“Walking the spiritual path properly is a very subtle process; it is not something to jump into naively.

This fundamental distortion may be referred to as Spiritual Materialism.”

“We laughed and laughed, together and separately, out loud and silently, we were determined to ignore whatever needed to be ignored, to build a new world from nothing if nothing in our world could be salvaged, it was one of the best days of my life, a day during which I lived my life and didn’t think about my life at all.”
