Loving service rendered with integrity teaches multitudes in darkness, those who still sleep, far faster than books or lectures.
~ from LUMEN CHRISTI...HOLY WISDOM by Nan Merrill
To see all things at their origin, their beginning, puts us in kinship with all that lives: trees, birds, stars seem foreign to us only inasmuch as we perceive them outside of our common origin with them.To drink at the source of all that lives and breathes expands the heart and makes the blood sing, echoing the song of all the vital fluids in the world.To dwell near all beginnings is to draw infinitely near to that which creates both the unity and the diversity of all beings.
