"We can tell a lot about a creature's level of consciousness by understanding their perception of death."
"Various fascinating psychological elements are involved in the transcendental state of human consciousness. One may lose the ability to distinguish one's self from the rest of the world in transcendence, but still it is the human brain that constructs that state of mind. Hence, even in that altered state of consciousness one is not totally devoid of one's beliefs, conjectures, ideas and fantasies. In fact, these ideas fill up the transcendental experience with all kinds of fanatic stories that happen to be unique, based on the person's inner urges and drives."

"The spark of consciousness is reflected in the river, where a dance of infinite faces lined in profane lights."
"We are the flower of eternal consciousness."
"Consciousness is a transformational dynamic force which transforms us by changing our imaginations and perceptions."

"If all consciousness is subject to essential laws in a manner similar to that in which spatial reality is subject to mathematical laws, then these essential laws will be of most fertile significance in investigating facts of the conscious life of human and brute animals."
"Psychologically experienced consciousness is therefore no longer pure consciousness; construed Objectively in this way, consciousness itself becomes something transcendent, becomes an event in that spatial world which appears, by virtue of consciousness, to be transcendent."
"To begin with, we put the proposition: pure phenomenology is the science of pure consciousness."
