Whoever uses psychedelics should treat them with greatest respect. When Aldous and I used them, we prepared the ambience and ourselves the day before. The day of the session was kept as a holy day, and there were beautiful fruits and flowers around. The result was, that we had no negative experiences.

Anybody can make a baby without any checking, without thinking. This type of parenting can be tragic because one of the greatest actions a human being can do is to create another life.
Laura Huxley
Image
I would much rather sit on the floor. Very rarely do I find a table and a chair that is comfortable. But the floor is comfortable.

I find beauty almost everywhere. Now more and more I find almost everything beautiful. That is why I have great difficulty in throwing away things because I think they are quite beautiful. Even the garbage, but I have to throw that away!

Our emotions are ever-changing and infinitely varied, but the words with which we describe them are fixed and rigid. Our life is like quicksilver, our vocabulary like steel. Sometimes a consummate poet succeeds in rendering the quality of life in words. For the rest of us, this is not possible.

One asana is strong, then again another is very soft and gentle. So you have this modulation from one asana to another, just as you have from one feeling to another. Then they all, of course, make you lighter, give you space. I feel that space is what I get and receive and like to have - space inside which makes more space for openness outside.

You would think that as you get older you would be more disciplined. As I get older I get less disciplined. I just play around!

They don't consider nicotine as a drug. Why don't they put it together with all the other drugs?

Be a little kinder to each other.
Laura Huxley

The unequal distribution of food is one of the world's most tragic facts. Millions of people die because they have too little to eat, and many die because they have too much.

The art of living is simply the art of using energy in an intelligent and creative way.
Laura Huxley
Image
I believe more in concrete spirituality rather than in a spirituality that is divided from the body and from nature.

Yoga is a natural thing.

The preparation for conception to me is one of the most important things, if we are we interested in the general progress of our species.

What I say is focus your mind and respect your body. But mostly love your heart. I think that is where to begin, from there and then it goes out.
Laura Huxley
Image
You can focus your mind. You can respect your body. All of that is important.

Everything has to come through the senses, as though the soul is speaking out through the senses.
