The moments you have really lived

Henry Drummond
February 2000 (Vol. XIII, No. 2)

You will find as you look back upon your life that the moments you have really lived are the moments when you have done things in the spirit of love.

Quote of the Day

Be aware of the sacred site . . .
Sacred sites are sacred because our
   response to them is sacred.
There is a resonance between the sacred
   within and the sacred without . . .

The sacred is within our hearts . . .

Visit sacred sites, yes.Bathe in the
   resonance, inspire the divine.
But never forget where lies the holiest
   power of all.   

~ from THE SACRED SITE WITHIN by Peter Russell
