"All things are connected like the blood that unites us all. Human did not weave the web of life; we are merely a strand in it. Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves" - Chief Seattle
"The Sacred is what is essential, it is like food, it
is basic. The Sacred points us back to the Divine Consciousness within
and without and brings us into authentic life, life that is attuned to
the
Eternal Presence, life that is offered as a pure gift, an act
of prayer, an eternal act of love."
- Andrew Harvey - speaking at St. Paul April 2007
