Yet all these ways succeed only for the moment, and block the road to a true solution. There is but one way to save ourselves from this hell: to leave the prison of our egocentricity, to reach out and to one ourselves with the world. If egocentric separateness is the cardinal sin, then the sin is atoned in the act of loving. The very word “atonement” expresses this concept, for it etymologically derives from “atonement,” the Middle-English expression for union.

Since there are many names for this, and the name to be used depends on the person and their cultural orientation, he used "E" when referring to this, and the appropriate word is to be verbally filled in during [[E-Therapy]] sessions. He said that all religions had their Prophets, those who spread this word, in various ways and times throughout history. He further told us that it was man who often corrupted the message, that we all have a direct [[connection]] to this, and that we don't need to go to an organized house of worship to get it....He also taught us not to deify anyone to the point of our own blindness.

We must overcome the torture of absolute separateness in some way: by submission or by domination or by trying to silence reason and awareness. Yet all these ways succeed only for the moment, and block the road to a true solution. There is but one way to save ourselves from this hell: to leave the prison of our egocentricity, to reach out and to one ourselves with the world. If egocentric separateness is the cardinal sin, then the sin is atoned in the act of loving. The very word “atonement” expresses this concept, for it etymologically derives from “at¬ onement,” the Middle-English expression for union. Since the sin of separateness is not an act of disobedience, it does not need to be forgiven. But it does need to be healed; and love, not acceptance of punishment, is the healing factor</ins></blockquote>"...we should all pursue our [[connection]] to our higher self, the master, the inner voice, the saviour, the aumakua, the bodhi, God, Buddha, Jesus, our soul, the all-knowing, the inner voice, our intuition, 'I've got a hunch,' 'something tells me,' our superconscious, or 'whatever you want to call it.
