Brahma said, ‘I just created the world. It is neither beautiful nor ugly. It is neither enjoyable nor tormenting. It is simply there. It all depends on what you choose to do with it. If you get caught up with the delusions of the mind, this is the way it is. If you use the mind to reach enlightenment, then you are beyond this. It is all up to the individual.’
Adiyogi said, ‘But you created the mind too, which is the source of all trouble.’
Brahma replied, ‘What you do with the mind is up to you. The choice is yours.’
If your mind tells you to sin,
then remind it of this beautiful reminder and say:
"Say: Is this better or the Garden of Eternity which the righteous has been promised?"

What was that sacred and terrible, elusive smell in the air this time? My name is Ambrosius Saint-Miro, the locals call me “Ambrosius Pyhä-Mirä” and in Graad they call me “Svjata-Mira”. “Diduska?” they ask, their eyes wide with affection, but I answer them: “No. I am not your diduska.” I am Ambrosius Santa-Mira from Mesque, Ambrosio Hagiamira, I
I want so much to be a part of her world. I want to know what it’s like to be in her mind, to feel what she feels. It seems a tremendous weight to carry.

What a beautiful disaster.
Philip K. Dick had a series of hallucinations in 1974 which presented themselves as encounters with the divine, specifically with a gnostic version of the divine. From that point until the end of his life, his mind was the setting for an elaborate conflict between his basically rational nature and the intense, undismissable sense that he had
Her ne kadar çoğu şizofreni hastası işini ve ilişkisini sürdüremeyecek kadar düzensiz olsa da istisnalar da vardı. Bir şizofreni hastası çok zekiyse üstün bilişsel yetileri psikotik düşüncelerini kontrol etmesine yardımcı olur ve bu kişiler (en azından çoğu zaman) görünürde normal bir hayat sürdürürler. Bunun en bilinen örneklerinden biri Russel Crowe'un A Beautiful Mind / Akıl Oyunları filminde hayatını canlandırdığı matematikçi John Nash'tir. Nash olağanüstü zekâsı sayesinde MIT'de ve diğer önde gelen akademik akademik enstitülerde üstün başarı sergilemiş, 1994'te Nobel ödülünü kazanmıştı. Ancak hayatının pek çok dönemini akıl hastanelerinde, paranoid şizofreninin ve fasılalı depresyonun pençesinde geçirdi.
you tell me to quiet down cause
my opinions make me less beautiful
but i was not made with a fire in my belly

so i could be easy to swallow
i was made heavy
half blade and half silk
difficult to forget and not easy
for the mind to follow
