Meher Baba
"The mind can be called the greatest miracle of the universe, because it is out of the mind that the illusion of the universe arises. Mind is a parent miracle yet the fulfillment of its destiny lies in self-annihilation. It has not fulfilled its true purpose if it does not completeley dissapear. The temporary clay model often has to be destroyed in order to bring out a statue of permanent importance; the form of wooden planks is rasied only to be replaced later by a slab of concrete; and the hen's egg has not fulfilled its destiny until it is broken from the inside by the pecking of a hacking chicken. In the same way, the mind-mould arises only in order that it may be shatterered to peices and that its bursting may make possible the unfoldment of true and unlimited understanding which is self-sustained. Thus the mind, which is the parent miracle comes into existence only in order to vanish."
