A batch of the best highlights from what Claudia's read, .
When you ask: “Who am I?” you are trying to read yourself as if you were a simple sentence already written. Instead, you write yourself as you go along. The sentence that you recognize is only one of many probable variations. You and no other choose which experiences you want to actualize. You do this as spontaneously as you speak words. You take it for granted that a sentence begun will be finished. You are in the midst of speaking yourself.
The Nature of the Psyche
Jane Roberts
In the process of becoming a person of gnosis, there are four “enemies” to be overcome. The first enemy is fear. Once fear is overcome, the sojourner must overcome the clarity that dawns, which in effect blinds them; overcoming clarity, they come into power and must overcome its ordeal. Then, in the end, the final enemy is old age, and that, too, must be overcome.
Gnosis of Guadalupe
Tau Malachi and Elder Gideon
We are at an important age of self-analysis. The art of our time cannot possibly rise an iota above the quality of our insight. It takes strength of a high order to get beyond the ordinary intelligent attitudes of experience. It is tempting accept life as a series of opportunities and anxieties, appetites and frustrations, and, having so accepted it, to canon making and seizing opportunities, whetting and appetites, avoiding disappointment This is the pattern of procedure.
