Adam Speaks

At this moment, you feel the pull of gravity holding you to the earth. You can’t see it, but you know it’s there. Most of the time you forget about gravity, but it’s always there, just the same. Feel the pull of God - it’s always there, just like gravity. Your conscience is God’s whisper - telling you what’s right or wrong - what’s wasteful or efficient. Listen . . . look . . . feel . . . you know God is there - you are never without God."
"God has made available to each of us some very special gifts. Starting with life itself, these gifts can be used to make the world a better place. Challenge one another - join with one another - find the ways you can contribute. Drop the artificial barriers society has created over the centuries - don’t let property, wealth, religion, race, cultures, and the superficial aspects of life separate you. Place one of your hands in the hand of your neighbor and your other hand in the hand of God. Together you will be amazed at all the good you can do."
"A staggering gift we share is our ability to combine our reasoning skills with our ability of speech. This allows us to resolve conflicts through the power of our ideas instead of the power of physical force. When we resort to physical force, we demonstrate a poor use of our lives."
"One of the greatest gifts we have is our ability to make recordings of our knowledge and experiences. If we perform this task accurately, we can share our successes and our failures with one another. This sharing can happen today as well as in years to come. The result can be a society engaged in a lengthy continuous improvement process. We don’t have to repeat the same mistakes. We can always do what we have learned is best. When we discover a new ‘best’, we can record that method for the benefit of others. We must be careful, however, to not distort the truth. If we do, people will begin to not trust what we record and will have to relearn much of what has already been done. Instead of moving forward and getting better, we will stagnate or slip back to some old wasteful habits."
"Remember the words you have heard and the sights you have seen. Share them with future generations so they will know, as you now know, that God is alive in each of us and our purpose in life is to do what we can to make things better."
