Memorable Quotes by Sarayu:
“Mackenzie, evil is a word we use to describe the absence of good, just as we use the word darkness to describe the absence of light or death to describe the absence of life.”
“A child is protected because she is loved, not because she has a right to be protected.”
“Mackenzie, we have no concept of final authority among us, only unity. We are in a circle of relationship, not a chain of command or 'great chain of being' as your ancestors termed it. What your're seeing here is relationship without any overlay of power. We don't need power over the other becuase we are always looking out for the best. Hierarchy would make no sense among us. Actually, this is your problem not ours.”
“Humans are so lost and damaged that to you it is almost incomprehensible that people could work or live together without someone being in charge.”
“When you choose independence over relationship, you become a danger to each other. Others became objects to be manipulatedor managed for your own happiness. Authority, as you usulaly think of it, is merely the excuse the strong use to make others conform to what they want.”
“You see, broken humans center their lives around things that seem good to them, but that will neither fill them nor free them. They are addicted to power, or the illusion of security that power offers. When a disaster happens, those same people will trun against the false powers they trusted. In their disappointment, they eitehr become softened toward me or they become bolder in their independence. If you could only see how all this ends and what we will achieve wthout the violation of one human will - then you would understand. One day you will!”
