Belonging: The Sacred Core of Community

What is true community? With every choice that we make, we create the communities that we live within.

“We never feel like we completely belong until we belong to ourselves first. But even when we do, I think there’s still a way that we are just naturally hooked up to participate in a bigger sense of belonging.” ~ Adyashanti

“Things are shifting in human evolution, and we have the freedom to explore outside our family or our town to find: What is our true community? ~ Maja Apolonia Rodé

 “I could just say “hello” to someone and I could tell if they had been around one of these spiritual teachers that I knew in a deep way. I could feel the energy of the lineage within them. They were carrying the energetic imprint of what they had given their heart to, in the past or in the present. That imprint is actually something that you carry, that lives with you.” ~ Adyashanti
