Grace happens when we act with others on behalf of our world.

Confirming an intuitive sense I've always felt for the interconnectedness of all things, this doctrine has provided me ways to understand the intricate web of co-arising that links one being with all other beings, and to apprehend the reciprocities between thought and action, self and universe.

There are the holding actions, the changing actions, and the vision of the future - what we want to see happen for the Earth. All are essential.

Grace happens when we act with others on behalf of our world.

We are our world knowing itself. We can relinquish our separateness. We can come home again - and participate in our world in a richer, more responsible and poignantly beautiful way than before, in our infancy.

The sorrow, grief, and rage you feel is a measure of your humanity and your evolutionary maturity. As your heart breaks open there will be room for the world to heal.

We are making choices that will affect whether beings thousands of generations from now will be able to be born sound of mind and body.
