Quotes from this Download:

“Meditation is an act of prayer. It’s also a physical embodiment of faith.”

“The spiritual journey is over and over and over finding out that we were wrong.”

“We are something which is beyond us.”

“Great doubt from another perspective is great sincerity.”

“One of the most difficult things for humans to be really honest with themselves about is themselves.”

“Sincerity and trust are not given to you on a platter. They are won through the crucible of experience, and a willingness to throw yourself into your own experience.”
