To view work as a pilgrimage is to put our heart's desires to hazard, because merely by setting out, we have told ourselves that there is something bigger and better, or even smaller and better – above all something more life giving – that awaits us in our work, and we are going to seek it. We look around to see what we have for the journey and find at bottom that we possess only intuitions and imagination.
We believe profoundly in silence -- the sign of a perfect equilibrium.Silence is the absolute poise or balance of body, mind and spirit.If you ask us: "What is silence?" we will answer: "It is the Great Mystery!"The holy silence is Great Spirit's voice!"If you ask: "What are the fruits of silence?" we will say: "They are self-control, true courage or endurance, patience, dignity, and reverence.Silence is the cornerstone of character.
