A computer terminal is not some clunky old television with a typewriter in front of it. It is an interface where the mind and body can connect with the universe and move bits of it about.

A primary function of art and thought is to liberate the individual from the tyranny of his culture in the environmental sense, and to permit him to stand beyond it in an autonomy of perception and judgment.

Investigating an untrue thought will always lead you back to who you are. It hurts to believe you are other than who you are, to live any story other than happiness. If you put your hand into the fire, does anyone have to tell you to move it? Do you have to decide? No: when your hand starts to burn, it moves. You don’t have to direct it; the hand moves itself. In the same way, once you understand, through inquiry, that an untrue thought causes suffering, you move away from it. --

You may be deceived if you trust too much, but you will live in torment if you do not trust enough.
