In prayerful solitude I find not only God and myself but the world and all in it, not as it sees itself but as it stands in reality.
~ Robert Farley
Experiencing grace involves the expansion of consciousness of self to all of one's surroundings as an unbroken whole, a consciousness of awe from which negative mindstates are absent, from which healing and groundedness result. For these reasons grace has long been deemed "amazing."
