Of course the Dharma-body of the Buddha was the hedge at the bottom of the garden. At the same time, and no less obviously, it was these flowers, it was anything that I - or rather the blessed Not-I - cared to look at.

More quotes by Aldous Huxley
If the Prince of Peace should come to earth, one of the first things he would do would be to put psychiatrists in their place.
Aldous Huxley
All our science is just a cookery book, with an orthodox theory of cooking that nobody's allowed to question, and a list of recipes that mustn't be added to except by special permission from the head cook.
Aldous Huxley
Nothing — the only perfection, the only absolute. Infinite and eternal nothing.
Aldous Huxley
One of the many reasons for the bewildering and tragic character of human existence is the fact that social organization is at once necessary and fatal. Men are forever creating such organizations for their own convenience and forever finding themselves the victims of their home-made monsters.
Aldous Huxley
life is short and information endless: nobody has time for everything
Aldous Huxley
One thinks one's something unique and wonderful at the center of the universe, when in fact one's just a slight interruption in the ongoing march of entropy.
Aldous Huxley
Dying is almost the least spiritual of our acts, more strictly carnal even than the act of love. There are Death Agonies that are like the strainings of the Costive at stool.
Aldous Huxley
In the course of history many more people have died for their drink and their dope than have died for their religion or their country.
Aldous Huxley
Consciousness is only possible through change change is only possible through movement.
Aldous Huxley
Our kingdom go is the necessary and unavoidable corollary of 'Thy kingdom come.' For the more there is self, the less there is of God. The divine eternal fulness of life can be gained only by those who have deliberately lost the partial, separative life of craving and self-interest, of egocentric thinking, feeling, wishing, and acting.
Aldous Huxley
Like every man of sense and good feeling, I abominate work.
Aldous Huxley
The more powerful and original a mind, the more it will incline towards the religion of solitude.
Aldous Huxley
Wherever the choice has had to be made between the man of reason and the madman, the world has unhesitatingly followed the madman.
Aldous Huxley
Man is unique in organizing the mass murder of his own species.
Aldous Huxley
Defined in psychological terms, a fanatic is a man who consciously over-compensates a secret doubt.
Aldous Huxley
What wonder, then, if human beings in their search for the divine have generally preferred to look within!
Aldous Huxley
Addiction is an increasing desire for an act that gives less and less satisfaction
Aldous Huxley
Every idol, however exalted, turns out, in the long run, to be a Moloch, hungry for human sacrifice.
Aldous Huxley
The most valuable of all education is the ability to make yourself do the thing you have to do, when it has to be done, whether you like it or not.
Aldous Huxley
Assemble a mob of men and women previously conditioned by a daily reading of the newspapers treat them to amplified band music, bright lights...and in next to no time you can reduce them to a state of almost mindless subhumanity. Never before have so few been in a position to make fools, maniacs, or criminals of so many.
Aldous Huxley
