That which sustains the universe beyond thought and language, and that which is at the core of us and struggles for expression, is the same thing. The finite within the infinite, the infinite within the finite."

It is something so bright, loud, weird and delicate as to stupefy the senses."

Nature

The pain is like an axe that chops my heart."

Religion

"Religion is more than rite and ritual."

Spiritual
