Hello

“Hello, sun in my face. Hello, you who made the morning and spread it over the fields … Watch, now, how I start the day in happiness, in kindness. “

The Times Are Urgent

The times are urgent; let us slow down.

Be a Lamp

Be a lamp or a lifeboat or a ladder. Help someone’s soul heal. Walk out of your house like a shepherd.

Finding Awe

We can find awe, then, in eight wonders of life: moral beauty, collective effervescence, nature, music, visual design, spirituality and religion, life and death, and epiphany.

Look Deeply

Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better.

Peace Is Generous

Peace is the generous, tranquil contribution of all to the good of all.

Don’t Plan

Don’t plan it all. Let life surprise you a little.

We Are Nature

We are nature and we are it all the time, no matter how far away or how close we perceive it to be at each moment.

Eye of the Beholder

People often say that “beauty is in the eye of the beholder,” and I say that the most liberating thing about beauty is realizing that you are the beholder.

Nature

My religion is nature. That’s what arouses those feelings of wonder and mysticism and gratitude in me. To learn about and/or register for Santa Sabina Center retreats and offerings, please go to: http://www.santasabinacenter.org/retreats-page.
