Quoted by@CarlMcColman Thank you for that, Carl. Yes, an American giant. Rare that I ever repeat the use of a text fragment in my art, but few observations describe incarnational spirituality as elegantly as this one, I believe. Greatly treasuring your writings, as usual, too.Quoted by@CACRadicalGrace @RichardRohrOFM 2/ This dynamic homeostasis in which inner-and-outer narratives effectively mix and match? The single co-evolutionary realm in which Reality comes to fullness in us, individually and together. The concrete reality of worldly and spiritual salvation, reconciliation and redemption.Quoted by@Zen_Moments "A meditation doesn't end with a sitting or a contemplative walk but in an act of service to the world.” - Thomas Moore. “Your power is limited by your objective. If your objective is service, the power that comes through you is unlimited.” - Pir Vilayat Inayat Khan.Quoted by3/ What’s it to be, then?
