Summary

This quote describes the state of matter during the radiation era that followed the Big Bang. It likens matter to a faint precipitate, implying its sparse and scattered nature, suspended within a world of dense light. At this early stage of the universe's evolution, radiation was dominant, and matter existed in the form of subatomic particles like protons and neutrons. The quote captures the contrasting composition of the universe during this period, highlighting the abundance and intensity of light compared to the relatively limited presence of matter.

I noticed an almost universal trait among Super Achievers, and it was what I call Sensory Goal Vision. These people knew what they wanted out of life, and they could sense it multidimensionally before they ever had it. They could not only see it, but also taste it, smell it, and imagine the sounds and emotions associated with it. They pre-lived it before they had it. And the sharp, sensory vision became a powerful driving force in their lives.

I am part of the sun as my eye is part of me, That I am part of the earth my feet know perfectly, and my blood is part of the sea... There is nothing of me that is alone and absolute, except my mind, and we shall find that the mind has no existence by itself, it is only the glitter of the sun on the surface of the waters.
