Quote of the Day:
“We human beings consider ourselves to be made up of solid matter. Actually, the physical body is the end product of the subtle information fields which mold our body as well as all physical matter. These fields are holograms which change in time and are outside the reach of our normal senses – what clairvoyants perceive as colorful, egg-shaped auras…”
