Wie lernen wir die Ordnungen des Schöpferischen erkennen und mitgestalten? Der Garten ist ein begrenzter Ort im Freien, von Menschen gestaltet und gepflegt: ein Ort von Kultur und Natur. Könnte es solche «Orte» der Zeit geben, so wie es in der Natur Gärten als Orte des lieblichen Zusammenwirkens mit dem Menschen gibt? Welchen Sinn können wir den Worten «Im Garten der Zeit» verleihen?

"There is no such thing as your mind and my mind. There is only mind—the totality of all that has been known, felt, and experienced by man, handed down from generation to generation. We are all thinking and functioning in that «thought sphere», just as we all share the same atmosphere for breathing. The thoughts are there to function and communicate in this world sanely and intelligently."

"Whatever you experience has already been experienced by someone else. Your telling yourself, «Ah! I am in a blissful state,» means that someone else before you has experienced that and has passed it on to you. Whatever may be the nature of the medium through which you experience, it is a second-hand, third-hand, and last-hand experience. It is not yours. There is no such thing as your own experience. Such experiences, however extraordinary, aren't worth a thing."

Nach der Freiheit VON Dingen und Konventionen entwirft sie in ihrem dritten Buch die Freiheit FÜR ein neues Menschenbild: herzzentriert statt kopfgesteuert – fliegen statt siegen. «Leben statt kleben», «Hurra!

El interior de tu convento pretende calar los peldaños de la intimidad, la cual, por cierto, es territorio conquistado por el misterio, lo ambiguo y lo desinhibido. Procura aumentar el número de ingestión de calorías a la imaginación, así como tener una cuota de responsabilidad al desenlazar sus renglones torcidos. Se resiste a objetar que nada es inequívoco. Y cuando cree que aquello termina, esto no hizo más que empezar.
