Understanding Quotes

All experience and phenomena are understood to be a dream, this should not be just an intellectual understanding, but a vivid and lucid experience...

Grasping and aversion is greatly diminished, and the emotional tangles that once seemed so compelling are experienced as the tug of dream stories, and no more Picture Quote #1

We need merely understand that the evolutionary process is neither random nor determined but creative. It follows the general pattern of all creativity. While there is no way of fully understanding the origin moment of the universe we can appreciate the direction of evolution in its larger arc of development as moving from lesser to great complexity in structure and from lesser to greater modes of consciousness. We can also understand the governing principles of evolution in terms of its three movements toward differentiation, inner spontaneity, and comprehensive bonding Picture Quote #1

True magic therefore is the high knowledge of the more subtle powers that have not yet been acknowledged by science up to this date because the methods of scrutiny that have been applied so far do not suffice for their grasping, understanding and utilization, although the laws of magic are analogous to all official sciences of the world Picture Quote #1

If ours is an examined faith, we should be unafraid to doubt... There is no believing without some doubting, and believing is all the stronger for understanding and resolving doubt Picture Quote #1

As you know, shibumi has to do with great refinement underlying commonplace appearances. It is a statement so correct that it does not have to be bold, so poignant it does not have to be pretty, so true it does not have to be real. Shibumi is understanding, rather than knowledge. Eloquent silence. In demeanor, it is modesty without pudency. In art, where the spirit of shibumi takes the form of sabi, it is elegant simplicity, articulate brevity. In philosophy, where shibumi emerges as wabi, it is spiritual tranquility that is not passive; it is being without the angst of becoming Picture Quote #1

By constantly moving the flashlight of your attention to the perimeter of your understanding, you enlarge your sense of the world Picture Quote #1

As the sphere of understanding grows ever larger, necessarily the surface area of ignorance gets ever bigger Picture Quote #1

I think I’ve become more understanding of people around me compared to before. I try to understand other people’s tendencies and relationships.

Although we human adults are really good at understanding other minds, we weren’t always that way. It takes children a long time to break into the system Picture Quote #1

Tolerance is understanding. It is open to new light. Those who are tolerant are always eager to explore viewpoints other than their own Picture Quote #1
