| The first excerpt represents the past or something you must release, and is drawn from The Rig Veda: 23 We to the Mighty with our might, with lauds to him who hears
our
call,
With holy hymns have sung aloud, for vigorous strength.
24 Not earth, nor heaven, nor firmaments contain the Thunder-wielding
God:
They shake before his violent rush and vigorous strength.
25 What time the Gods, O Indra, get thee foremost in the furious
fight,
Then thy two beautiful Bay Steeds carried thee on.
26 When Vrtra, stayer of the floods, thou si"est, Thundeicr

The second excerpt represents the present or the deciding factor of the moment, and is drawn from The Pupil by Henry James: everything they do."
"He might, while he's about it, save a little - " The boy paused,
and his friend waited to hear what. Then Morgan brought out oddly:
"A little reputation."
"Oh there's plenty of that. That's all right!"
"Enough of it for the people they know, no doubt. The people they
know are awful."
"Do you mean the princes? We mustn't abuse the princes."
"Why not? They haven't married Paula - they haven't married Amy.
They only clean out Ulick."
"You DO know everything!" Pemberton declared.

The third excerpt represents the future or something you must embrace, and is drawn from The Magic of Oz by L. Frank Baum: be in the Munchkin Country, and perhaps a good way off, so let's ask
the Glass Cat to tell us how to get to the Magic Flower."
So the two girls, with Cap'n Bill stumping along on his wooden leg
after them, went out into the garden, and after some time spent in
searching, they found the Glass Cat curled up in the sunshine beside a
bush, fast sleep.
The Glass Cat is one of the most curious creatures in all Oz. It
was made by a famous magician named Dr. Pipt before Ozma had forbidden
her subjects to work magic. Dr. Pipt had made the Glass Cat to catch
mice, but the Cat refused to catch mice and was considered more
curious than useful.
