Archetypal Journey (Levels of Consciousness)
“We live, we die. Logically, nothing in between matters. Why does the world not recognize my brilliance?!…not that I need anything from the shallow, deluded people of the world anyway.”
“Knowledge is power. I want to engage in the world, but I fear being overtaken by it. I’m not ready yet, my knowledge is incomplete, I need to study more.”
“Eventually, all that one has learnt will have to be forgotten” – Ramana Maharshi
“This phenomena is not-self” – Buddha
