WE ARE EXPLORING THE PRACTICE OF HEAVENLINESS
+ Continuing with the 12 styles of the Mandala process, we are exploring the style of Love and Compassion.
+ Compassion is the
keen awareness of the interdependence of all things.
+ God's dream is
that you and I and all of us will realize that we are family, that we are made
for togetherness, for goodness, and for compassion.
-- Desmond
Tutu
+ This quote by ArchBishop Tutu could have been used when we explored
Imagination. Love expands as we imagine
and then create a realm of compassion,
peace, justice and sustainable abundance for all. It is so important to emphasize that this realm
is “for all” and not for some. There are
no boundaries in heaven. When we are engaged in creating and enjoying this
realm, we are awake, aware and connected to the heavenly energy which is
totally available right now, right here.
This is our prayer. This is our
mission. This is reality. This is
happening. This is bliss. Enjoy.
