"And there came a
Great conflagration in the
Sea of Sky, the
mighty
Heavens poured forth
Angels of Light" |
|
Within each of us, there are
many voices which cumulate into
the form of the Eternal One.
Each of these voices is a character unto itself, holding
sway a vast library of Knowledge
that transcends all time and space. As Our Journey in this
remarkable sphere develops, these
forms become more insistent, more prevalent, asking
of our own will and
volition in forming the shape
of our lives. Becoming conscious of these unique
characteristics, helps in maintaining the all important
dialogue with our own Divine Self. |

"The only real danger
that exists is man himself. He is the great danger, and we are pitifully unaware of it. We know nothing of man, far too little. His psyche should be studied, because we are the origin of all
coming evil."
- Carl
Gustav Jung |
