I feel there is a great spiritual awakening on the planet right now. More than any previous time, people are drawn to meditation, to mindfulness, to yoga. These have become mainstream in the West because there is a hunger.

One of the most powerful sayings I have come across is by Imam ash-Shafi'I, "My heart is at ease knowing that what was meant for me will never miss me, and that what misses me was never meant for me."

You can feel small, insignificant and insubstantial, but knowing the universe is in your tiny body should be enough to make you happy.

We are not just these three-dimensional bodies walking around. Our unconscious communicates and other people pick it up and they come to our rescue, or a spirit comes to our rescue.

There is a spirit, an energy, that works with us. We've all felt it at some point in our lives.

When there is spirit and light, the dark forces of whatever is hidden and suppressed - like hatred and separation - become more powerful.

Unbinding the Heart means to really look at the areas in our lives where we withhold our own love from our self and others.
