Riding the Light Beam 2

[Guest guest]

Einstein used his imagination and Howe used what

is now called lucid dreaming to make the discoveries

that made them famous. Their genius had little to do

with observation and reason and everything to do with

accessing other non-traditional modes of acquiring

knowledge.<br><br>From the point of view of the Sadhana Club, it is

meditation and devotion to God that accesses those

alternative ways of acquiring knowledge. Not everyone posting

in this club will accept this contention, but as the

Bible says, “ in Mark 4 and Luke 8, "He who has ears to

hear, let him hear."<br><br>But I will give the final

words to Albert Einstein:<br><br>1. "Imagination is

more important than knowledge." <br><br>2. "Reality is

merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one."

<br><br>3. "The only real valuable thing is intuition."

<br><br>4. "We can't solve problems by using the same kind

of thinking we used when we created them."

<br><br>5. "Whoever undertakes to set himself up as a judge

of Truth and Knowledge is shipwrecked by the

laughter of the gods." <br><br>6. "My religion consists of

a humble admiration of the illimitable superior

spirit who reveals himself in the slight details we are

able to perceive with our frail and feeble mind."

<br><br>7. "The most beautiful thing we can experience is

the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and

all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger,

who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in

awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed."

<br><br>8. "I want to know God's thoughts; the rest are

details." <br><br>Om namah Sivaya<br><br>omprem
