Love is original nature. At the core of the great mystical traditions is the idea that humanity’s original nature is good. Other attributes of original nature are interconnectedness, peace, purity, wholeness and love. It is the disconnection from original nature that is the cause of dis-ease, anxiety, psychological pain and stress.

A Course in Miracles says that forgiveness is the closest thing in this world to an experience of God’s Love. Healing is the restoration of awareness of original nature. Restoration of awareness of original nature is transformative. It has the ultimate trickle down effect. It permeates body, emotions, mind and spirit. Quality of life shifts.
Would I have the courage to face down terrorists or walk through cancer. Well, I’ve had cancer, and got through it. I have yet to face terrorists, but I believe that the world is primed for something and everyone in his or her own way will have to dig down really deep to find the strength of God that passeth understanding.
