A Journal of Cosmic Memories Quotes

“You join your creations as one of the created but there is no difference between you and your creations. The separation is illusion. You are the observer and the observed. The author and the character. The seed and the sapling. The captain and the ship. The wagon and the driver. The music and the composer. The dream and reality. You occupy infinite levels of yourself in worlds of thought and matter, experiencing your own awareness, beyond understanding or even description.”

“The past was not always the past. At one time the past was the present, and at another time it was the future,” she said. “Is this not so? Therefore, all depends upon the relative perspective of the observer in any timeline.

You can also access the future in visions and dreams,” she said.”
