Somewhere in the process I started writing toward an answer to the question I wake up with every morning and go to bed with every night.

The rich and sometimes deeply clarifying dreamscape of vast inconsolable grief?

~ Paolo Coelho
Man's conscious state is an awareness of body and breath. His subconscious state, active in sleep, is associated with his mental, and temporary, separation from body and breath. His superconscious state is a freedom from the delusion that existence depends on body and breath. God lives without breath; the soul made in his image becomes conscious of itself, for the first time, only during the breathless state.
~ Paramahansa Yogananda
The soul having been often born, or, as the Hindus say, 'traveling the path of existence through thousands of births' ... there is nothing of which she has not gained the knowledge; no wonder that she is able to recollect... what formerly she knew.... For inquiry and learning is reminiscence all."-Emerson.
~ Paramahansa Yogananda
The soul must stretch over the cosmogonic abysses, while the body performs its daily duties.
~ Paramahansa Yogananda
