Enter into the Silence, into the Heart of Truth; For herein lies the Great Mystery where life is ever unfolding... Listen for the Music of the Spheres in the resounding Silence of the universe. May balance and harmony be your aim as you are drawn into the Heart of Love.
~ Nan Merrill from her interpretation of "Psalm 132" in PSALMS FOR PRAYING

Peter Matthiessen in "Earth and Spirit" speaks of reclaiming our harmony with the universe:
As a first step we might consider this Great Mystery that is all about us ... It is the music of the stars, the color of the winds, the dead stillness between tides ... It is no less and no more strange than our life itself.
