“The most dramatic shift a human being can undergo is when they recognize that their life has been programmed by decades and decades of noise—both internal noise from the mind and external noise via media. That their mind is like a sponge, or silly puddy, which has soaked up a lifetime of ink, of data, of noise. And behind all of this, one realizes that there is an evolving, silent, conscious awareness that truly knows the score and is indeed the only game in town—as it is the antenna to the feed of the cosmos and the larger consciousness system. This is waking up.”—(via anti-teachings)
