Hope for sanity but expect insanity. Do this and the world will rarely disappoint you.

If you go looking for sanity you will find the Here and Now.

God is sanity and sanity is found in the here and now. The degree to which I am crazy is the degree to which my actions in the Here and Now are governed by the Thete and Then

Everyone in the world is half crazy and half sane. The crazy and sane are sometimes thoroughly mixed together. The challenge of living in the world is to accept that you also are half crazy

Supposing, when you leave this incarnate life, that you then experienced a ‘life review’. During this review you experience every effect that you had on other beings during your incarnation, from their perspectives. Conscience is like this. We imagine our effects on others. We might not want to but, when our conscience calls to us, this is what happens.

The law of Karma is that there are consequences. Consequences of what we do, and consequences of what we do not do. These consequences are eternal. Nothing is ever ‘over’. Even if bad blood between me and other person is resolved, we are now connected.

There are four laws that govern us: Karma, Conscience, the Law of the Jungle and Tribal Law.

A person’s neurosis is grounded in the past. It is a response to what happened previously. What happened cannot be undone, and we often won’t remember anymore what did happen. Always, whatever it was we don’t like it, but we have taken lessons from it and we deeply believe them, even though we dislike them intensely.
