We may tell ourselves that love is not really available. but the deeper truth is that we don't entirely trust it, and therefore have a hard time fully opening to it or letting it all the way into us. This disconnects us from our own heart, exacerbating our sense of love's scarcity.

A soul connection is a resonance between two people who respond to the essential beauty of each other's individual natures, behind their facades, and who connect on this deeper level.

It is only through letting our heart break that we discover something unexpected: the heart cannot actually break, it can only break open. When we feel both our love for this world and the pain of this world-together, at the same time-the heart breaks out of its shell. To live with an open heart is to experience life full-strength.

Forget about enlightenment. Sit down wherever you are. And listen to the wind singing in your veins.

Dennis Lewis has a deep understanding of the central importance of breathing, in both its physical and spiritual dimensions

Boundless love always manages somehow to sparkle through your limited form.

To allow yourself your own experience is the greatest act of self love
