I analyze religious knowledge and consciousness.

Too much knowledge and analysis can be paralysis.

I became really interested in the study of consciousness.

I find as long as I acknowledge the truth of something, then that's it. I know what it is and then I can operate. But if I overestimate the downside of something or the challenge of something and I get too obsessed about the difficulty of it, then I don't leave enough room to be open to the upside, the possibility.

I am just a human being trying to make it in a world that is rapidly losing its understanding of being human.

I operate better with education and awareness, like I think all of us do. I don't like to be walking around in a vacuum, lost in my own thoughts. I'm much better with information.

It takes considerable knowledge just to realize the extent of your own ignorance.

I can intellectualize myself out of anything.

Knowledge of the self is the mother of all knowledge. So it is incumbent on me to know my self, to know it completely, to know its minutiae, its characteristics, its subtleties, and its very atoms.

The difficulties which I meet with in order to realize my existence are precisely what awaken and mobilize my activities, my capacities.
