I see the terrifying spaces of the universe that enclose me, and I find myself attached to a corner of this vast expanse, without knowing why I am more in this place than in another, nor why this little time that is given me to live is assigned me at this point more than another out of all the eternity that has preceded me and out of all that will follow me. Blaise Pascal
The transpersonal experiences revealing the Earth as an intelligent, conscious entity are corroborated by scientific evidence.
