“Awakening is not a thing. It is not a goal, not a concept. It is not something to be attained. It is a metamorphosis. If the caterpillar thinks about the butterfly it is to become, saying ‘And then I shall have wings and antennae,’ there will never be a butterfly. The caterpillar must accept its own disappearance in its transformation. When the marvelous butterfly takes wing, nothing of the caterpillar remains.”
― Alejandro Jodorowsky

Quotes
Quote: Hermann Hesse on Phenomena

Poetry: My Definition Of Life (Cosmic Earth Poem)
My Definition Of Life (Cosmic Earth Poem)
Every time I walk through the forest I feel that is where i belong.
I feel a soothing calmness. The sounds of nature is music to my ears,
the lush vegetation and the tall trees surrounding me as the cool breeze ruffles through the leaves
I am at peace. forever rooted and connected to nature interwoven into the fabric of my being,
as the sun peaks through the branches gently kissing my skin as i inhale the sweet aroma of the earth.
frolicking in the beauty and the enjoying the splendors that is life.
As my bare feet grounds upon the rich earth below, entrenching my roots further into the earth.
I am home, as I am mentally stimulated by all of the vibrancy around me, the colors are candy for my mind’s eye.
I become one with my surroundings.
One with the universe.
Molecules scattered through time as time stand stills, living in the moment.
My mind opened to the wonders around me.
Hypnotized by the beauty that enchants me.
Connected to the earths core, branching out to the universe,
my soul interconnected with the stars,
dancing on the moon that glows upon my skin at night.
This my brothers and sisters is my definition of life..
