“Ninety-eight percent of the atoms in the body change every year. The atoms in the bones, which are apparently so solid and permanent, are completely exchanged every three months. The body’s skin is new every month, the stomach lining every four days, the surface cells that contact the food every five minutes. In this flux of constant change, all that remains the same is the immensely complex standing wave in the underlying field of nature’s intelligence. Consciousness is primary. The body is a pattern in the field of intelligence.” (1)
What are you if not a body of consciousness?
What are you if not an eddy in a stream of life?
