We seem to have lost our contact with the primordial: the idea of - call it divine revelation as opposed to something that's learned by the human intellect - something that, if you lay yourself completely open, and you just open your heart completely, something will actually come into it.

Deep down, there is in the substance of the cosmos a primordial disposition, sui generis, for self-arrangement and self-involution.

To have my mind racing and my heart beating fast over glorious possibilities is very close to the summit of life experience for me.

In almost everything, experience is more valuable than precept.

All science is experiential; but all experience must be related back to and derives its its validity from the conditions and context of consciousness in which it arises, i.e., the totality of our nature.

The experience of God, or in any case the possibility of experiencing God, is innate.

We come altogether fresh and raw into the several stages of life, and often find ourselves without experience, despite our years.

The experience of life consists of the experience which the spirit has of itself in matter and as matter, in mind and as mind, in emotion, as emotion, etc.

There are moments of existence when time and space are more profound, and the awareness of existence is immensely heightened.

Being with nature opens us up to divine experience.
