Although this consciousness functions through millions of forms, it is one and the same consciousness. —Nisargadatta Maharaj Your nature and the integral nature of the universe are one and the same: indescribable, but eternally present. —Lao Tzu ...it is ones rare fortune to be born a human being. I have obtained a human body. I will not lose this golden opportunity... —Buddha The outer and inner world—the universe and the human body—are one... from the largest scale (macrocosm or universe- level) all the way down to the smallest scale (microcosm or sub-sub-atomic level). In this representation the mid-point is man, who summarizes the cosmos. —Barney Wee and Agnes Lau I know that the molecules in my body are traceable to phenomena in the cosmos. That makes me want to grab people on the street and say: ‘Have you HEARD THIS? —Neil deGrasse Tyson We are the universe trying to understand itself. —Carl Sagan That capacity is mans: he can fall below the animals and he can rise above the gods. That is the glory of man and his misery too. That is the agony of man and his ecstasy too. Man is just like a bridge...a link between animal and divine. —Osho Man has this two-fold nature--in his body he is mortal, and in his intelligence he is immortal. He raises reverent eyes to heaven above, and tends the Earth below. He is blessed by being the intermediary. —Hermes Being both spirit and matter, man is an intermediary between these two great principles...Hermes concludes that man is a marvel, worthy of wonder and reverence—a sentiment that fueled the humanism of the Renaissance. —Timothy Freke and Peter Gandy youtu.be/aMsaFP3kgqQ
