I think what we (as a society) need from artists of all kinds is courage, a willingness to explore, and a really big sense of possibility.

Each decision we make, each action we take, is born out of an intention.

In those moments when we realize how much we cannot control, we can learn to let go.

I call myself a meditation teacher rather than a spiritual teacher.

If we fall, we don't need self-recrimination or blame or anger - we need a reawakening of our intention and a willingness to re-commit, to be whole-hearted once again.

I stepped onto the spiritual path moved by an inner sense that I might find greatness of heart, that I might find profound belonging, that I might find a hidden source of love and compassion. Like a homing instinct for freedom, my intuitive sense that this was possible was the faint, flickering, yet undeniable expression of faith.

As we work to reweave the strands of connection, we can be supported by the wisdom and lovingkindness of others.
