"The basic core values of ONENESS are free! "
"The real innovations that belong to the future should be in service to life, in service to humanity. If we will have this attitude, then the consciousness will be aligned where the information is, where the technology is waiting.... It is a gift."
"There is another interesting point that our culture has overlooked. Which is that everything that is seminal, everything that is really important is a gift. It is a gift from the inner world."
—Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee, "Technology, Consciousness, and the Future: An Introductory Talk"

“O perdão é uma fragrância do Ser. Ele é como um raio de luz, que
encontra-se encoberto por capas de mágoas e ressentimentos. Por mais que
você não esteja podendo identificar esses sentimentos, eles existem, e a
prova disso é a separação, tanto do outro como de si mesmo. Você pode
estar magoado com o outro ou consigo mesmo, mas independentemente disso,
o fato é que algo ainda não foi compreendido e aceito. Por alguma razão,
você se recusa a aceitar. Mas, a aceitação não pode ser forçada, assim
como o perdão não pode ser imposto de fora para dentro. Ela é um fruto
da árvore da compreensão.”
“El perdón es una fragancia del Ser. Es como un rayo de luz, que se
encuentra cubierto por capas de heridas y resentimientos. Por más que no
estés pudiendo identificar esos sentimientos, éstos existen, y la
prueba de ello es la separación, tanto del otro como de ti mismo. Puedes
estar herido con el otro o contigo mismo, pero independientemente de
eso, el hecho es que algo aún no fue comprendido y aceptado. Por alguna
razón, te rehúsas a aceptar. Pero la aceptación no puede ser forzada,
así como el perdón no puede ser impuesto de afuera hacia adentro. Es un
fruto del árbol de la comprensión.”
"Forgiveness is a fragrance of the Being. It is like a ray of light that is covered in layers of hurt and resentment. Even though we may not be able to identify these feelings, they do indeed exist. The proof of their existence lies in our feelings of separation, both from the other and from ourselves. We may have been hurt by others or by ourselves, but regardless, the fact is that something has not been understood and accepted. For some reason, we refuse to accept it. Acceptance cannot be forced, and forgiveness cannot be imposed from the outside. It is a fruit of the tree of understanding."
