SPIRITUAL EXPLORATIONS --20

WE ARE EXPLORING THE PRACTICE OF STILLNESS

Stillness within one individual can affect society beyond measure. -- Bede Griffiths

To meet everything and everyone through stillness instead of mental noise is the greatest gift you can offer to the universe.  -- Eckhart Tolle in Stillness Speaks

Later we will explore the practice of solitude, an important part of the journey toward heavenliness.  And we will explore the spiritual style of relationships as presented by Edward Bastian in Mandala: Creating An Authentic Spiritual Path: An InterSpiritual Process.  I want to emphasize here how intimately and intricately connected all of these practices are.  Once harnessed, as Ed likes to put it, these practices become the gateway to creating heaven on earth, a realm of abundance, joy, wisdom, beauty, love, truth, peace, justice and freedom.
