Remembering
“Despite the common desire to rise to the top, moments of essential change can depend upon a willingness to descend. A deep connection may be drawn between those who face the truth in themselves and the discovery of valuable pearls in depths of the ocean. Those who desire pearls must dive into deep waters; once there they risk darkness and isolation and the confusions of the murky depths. Similarly, those who would find the inner pearl must enter the treacherous waters of the soul and face the darkness found within. They must crack the hard shell of their little-self and come to know themselves from the inside out.”
- Michael Meade, “Fate and Destiny”

“I found that the power of the landscape, the presence of the animals and the dynamic flow of living energy through the wild were working on me inwardly…And this was drawing me into the deep current that has run through many human cultures for tens of thousands of years — the natural connection between the animals, the rhythms and cycles of the Earth and the waking of the soul within each person. — Eleanor O’Hanlon

“Sooner or later we will all remember to do the duties we were instructed to do. Sooner is better than later. Later brings the suffering that will cause us to remember the Creator. The decision as to when it will be is always up to each person.
