This post exists somewhat outside the general remit of Future Conscience, and yet I feel it is necessary to open up my spiritual thoughts a bit in order to provide some further insight into where the blog comes from.
Spiritual aphorisms are intended to speak directly to the intuitive side of us, and as such they will be placed here without comment. They are as true as they are true, and as false as they are false. I hope that you find value of some kind in one or more of these, my musings along the way.

- It’s easy to pretend to be something you are not, but only to those who can’t see who you are.
- If someone seeks to sell you a secret, it is not worth learning.
- Every act of integration is simultaneously one of incarnation.

- Once you can look in the mirror and see nothing is when you will be able to gaze into another’s eyes and see a whole universe unfold.
- Do not ask for results because you will never fathom them. Ask for the process, and you will be gifted with understanding.
- The most powerful words produce no sound.
- To hold another in your arms is to feel the universe breathing.
- Salvation is not dependent upon where you were born.
- We are shown the most sublime secrets with every passing moment, and yet we claim to know none of them.

- Ask yourself: what do I hope to achieve by writing it?
- When the time arises, stay silent.
