“Spiritualism, born out of the same discontent with social restrictions and punitive theologies as the suffrage movement, ended up even sharing the same table. The subsequent meeting, at the Seneca Falls Universalist Wesleyan Church on July 19-20 would ignite the woman's suffrage movement, setting the stage for a seventy-two year battle that resulted in the 1920 passage of the Twenty-First Amendment.”

“To say yes wholeheartedly is to be religious. It has nothing to do with a belief in a god. All that you need is wholehearted yes. All that you need is a total yes, so that not even a small fragment of no remains in the heart. When you say a total yes, you become a light unto yourself. And this light starts to guide you on your path. Then no outer guide is needed. When you say a total yes, you don't hold back. The total yes means to flow with life and to be available to life. The total yes means that non-resistance is all that is needed. We have to cooperate with life. Our mind is very afraid of saying yes. The mind naturally resists saying yes. The mind lives through saying no. We have lived with saying no for so many lives that we have forgotten the possibility of saying yes. We have forgotten the possibility of saying yes to ourselves, to say to others and to say yes to all that is.”
