All over the sky a sacred voice is calling your name.

And while I stood there I saw more than I can tell. And I understood more than I saw; for I was seeing in a sacred manner the shapes of things in the spirit, and the shape of all shapes as they must live together like one being.

Crazy Horse dreamed and went into the world where there is nothing but the spirits of all things. That is the real world that is behind this one, and everything we see here is something like a shadow from that one.

I cured with the power that came through me. Of course, it was not I who cured, it was the power from the Outer World; the visions and ceremonies only made me like a hole through which the power could come to the two-leggeds. If I thought that I was doing it myself, the hole would close up and no power could come through.

I was standing on the highest mountain of them all, and round about me was the whole hoop of the world. And while I stood there I saw more than I can tell and I understood more than I saw; for I was seeing in a sacred manner the shapes of things in the spirit, and the shape of all shapes as they must live together like one being. And I saw that the sacred hoop of my people was one of many hoops that made one circle, wise as daylight and as starlight, and in the center grew one mighty flowering tree to shelter all children of one mother and one father. And I saw that it was Holy.

Perhaps you have noticed that even in the slightest breeze you can hear the voice of the cotton tree; this we understand is its prayer to the Great Spirit, for not only men, but all things and all beings pray to Him continually in different ways.

The first peace, which is the most important, is that which comes within the Souls of people when they realize their relationship, their oneness with the universe and all its powers, and when they realize at the center of the universe dwells the Great Spirit, and that its center is really everywhere, it is within each of us.

The Great Spirit is everywhere; He hears whatever is in our minds and our hearts, and it is not necessary to speak to Him in a loud voice.

Black Elk  1863 – 1950
You showed me… the spirit shape of things as they should be. You have shown me, and I have seen.

J. Allen Boone  1882 – 1965
All living things are individual instruments through which the Mind of the Universe thinks, speaks and acts. We are all interrelated in a common accord, a common purpose and a common good.

If you would learn the secret of right relations, look only for the Divine in people and things, and leave all the rest to God.

Never forget that every living thing has a particular and needed job to do in the universal plan and purpose.

J. Allen Boone  1882 – 1965
The Divinity within all life innately relates each of us to every other living thing, and every other living thing to us, in true kinship.

The greatest primary principle of all life creates and animates all things and speaks wisdom through each one of them all the time.

The Mind of the Universe is constantly speaking through all life and for the greater good of all life.

The Universal Presence, power and purpose is forever moving back of all things, in all things and through all things.

We are members of a vast cosmic orchestra, in which each living instrument is essential to the complimentary and harmonious playing of the whole.

Gregg Braden

Earth’s crammed with Heaven and every common bush, afire with God.

The way is not in the sky… The way is in the heart.

God loves us all so much that he has given each of us a little speck of Himself. This speck of the Light of God is our Soul. We connect more deeply with our Soul when we open ourselves up to love.

We are all connected, each and everyone of us has a Soul, and all of our Souls are one, they are all a part of God.
