No clear impressions, either from above or from without, can be received by a mind turbid with excitement and agitated by a crowd of distractions. The stillness needed for the clear shining of light within is incompatible with hurry.
Caroline Stephen, 1834-1909
Find a place where you can just BE. Remove yourself from the artificially frantic pace at which the world is trying to push you. Find a place in the world and in your heart where you can rest, where you can abide in The Spirit.
Feel the presence of the divine. Feel yourself being filled with The Spirit. It is always there. It is always here.
As your heart opens to the divine, it also opens to others. They are not separate.
Feel your own inner light, radiate in the glow of others. All sentient beings have this light. Reach out to the light in others and you will feel its warmth - and you will feel your own light blazing in testimony.
Come, let us worship together!
May all beings know peace!
Aroha nui,
Tūruapō ❣
