"The Second Neurotic's Notebook"
If you have known yourself, you have known everything else. Know that, by knowing which, you will know everything else.

-Satchidananda Saraswati "Swami Satchidananda"

"All That Is Unspoken"
The simplest questions are the most profound. Where were you born? Where is your home? Where are you going? What are you doing? Think about these once in a while and watch your answers change.
