All of us are like eagles who have forgotten we know how to fly and are trapped in our nest of old food, excrement, and stale air.  We need to let go of everything and step to the edge of our nest and soar.  You cannot soar and carry all the baggage with you.  Let go!

We seek belief systems and philosophies, but true spirituality is far beyond the conception of even the most brilliant human mind.  The need to understand this truth is universal because it is the very essence of life itself, it is found only in the here and now.

Our path in life is to live in harmony with all others, the environment and oneself; to live in synchronicity with all things and to be completely authentic, sincere, and natural.  These ancient teachings provide us with a guide to living, thinking, feeling, and behaving.

If a species in nature dominates others, the resulting imbalance destroys habitats for all.  The same situation occurs when one person or group tries to use power over others.  Learning to live a balanced life, while taking others into consideration, means walking a path of humility and integrity.

Quote: One thing I know for sure is that I know nothing.  Socrates
