"People who've never suffered haven't yet developed an ability to utilize their own creativity to solve a challenging situation. An analogy would be that of a person who has fallen into a well. After many attempts of trying to climb out of the well, they develop strength, ingenuity. That is what many are doing on this earth. However, devastating struggle is always karmic. It might seem karmic if one has had a bad day or week. However, "little suffering" is for the purpose of building character and inner trust. On the other hand, "extreme suffering" for no apparent reason is an indication one is dealing with big karma."

" So many souls, energies have a certain perception of others. They believe they're separate from each other. Such perceptions can collect into an energy agreeing upon a specific direction the country will take. The lesson is acceptance of differences. Don't forget you are a part of everything and everything is a part of you."

"You're at page ten but I understand the entire evolution," remarks Kuan Yin. "In reality, it's already over. It's a dream. Remember? You're living a dream. It's very complicated to hold the dream and live the dream. You are learning the art of juggling the dream and the world of dreams. No one really gets hurt."

"Even the earth is reflective of the different kinds of evolution," intervenes Kuan Yin. "There is the hellish aspect, deserts and other unlivable places. There are places on the earth where people get hurt. However, there are also places of incredible peace and beauty. All of these evolutionary potentials are being played out at the same time, somewhere on the earth. You can come to that place of peace."

"I'm seeing how one's mind can distract, can come between one another. Here and now [visiting with Kuan Yin], there is no space between our complete focused attentions. The energy is unbroken, continuous. It's like meditation."

"At the same time you're equal to everyone else, you need to know you're also special, unique. Everyone has his or her own uniqueness while also being equal to the next person."

"What I am placing my hand upon is a dense conglomeration of stuck energy made up of certain ideas. Naturally, not all ideas are included in this energy. It needs certain elements, things sprinkled into it gradually. Having compassion for the "untruth". That is what's missing. I'm sending compassion into this rock. One needs to slowly add elements of insight to reach truth."

"It's a good time to ask ourselves to look at the lies we are telling ourselves. It's a time to examine our thoughts and the thoughts of the people of the world. Let us all reflect upon the "great mix" of free will and karma. Reread the past chapters and ponder what I have said. Karma is intricate, detailed. One cannot dwell on only one particle of this great collective energy. Your life is but one frame of an entire reel of film."

"Do not drag the negative past or future into the present. Understanding the possibilities of the present. It's a skill useful for discovering the divine," comments Kuan Yin.
"Kuan Yin is showing me something-a tube, I think. I don't fully understand this diagram. It is as if one end is the past, the other the future. The middle of the tube, the present, is our way, our vehicle for changing reality. You slip into the universe, while living in this dream, this present. Your escape hatch is right here."

"What a radical concept! Everyone having loving kindness! With practice, a reality is created somewhere having that very consciousness of loving kindness. Such practice also draws one to those (loving kindness) planes of consciousness."
