“I refuse to turn to theology to justify the life or redeem it. There is a question always of the connection to the eternal. I say to myself above all, keep alive your conviction that there are sacred elements in the life in the practice of the life that must be respected. But the conviction in the existence of the sacred does not necessarily imply that you need to believe in a creator, because we are the ones that made the sacred.” NeedsBelieveDoeMadeTurnsExistencePracticeAliveElementsEternalConnectionsSacredRefuseConvictionCreatorTheologyJustify Author:Stanley Kunitz

“To encounter the sacred is to be alive at the deepest center of human existence. Sacred places are the truest definitions of the earth; they stand for the earth immediately and forever; they are its flags and shields. If you would know the earth for what it really is, learn it through its sacred places. At Devil’s Tower or Canyon de Chelly or the Cahokia Mounds, you touch the pulse of the living planet; you feel its breath upon you. You become one with a spirit that pervades geologic time and space.” IfsKnowsFeelsHumansEarthSpiritSpaceExistenceForeverAlivePlanetsDevilBreathsSacredDefinitionsEncountersFlagsTowersTime And SpacePulseShieldsHuman ExistenceTruestCanyonsSacred PlacesGeologic Time Author:N.

“A secret love is beautiful, sweet and sacred when it's just a light infatuation; but when that person reaches over and touches you in the heart, making it alive in a way it has never known, that secret love becomes frightening, because you can never make them love you, you would never want to make them love you...but all the same, no matter which way you view it, they don't love you...and your heart doesn't know how to beat the same.” KnowsWayWantHeartPersonsMatterLightBeautifulLove IsViewsSecretKnownKnow HowAliveLove YouSweetBeatsSacredFrighteningInfatuationSecret Love Author:Stefanie Schneider
“We need Goddess consciousness to reveal earth's holiness. Divine feminine imagery opens up the notion that the earth is the body of the Divine, and when that happens, the Divine cannot be contained solely in a book, church, dogma, liturgy, theological system, or transcendent spirituality. The earth is no longer a mere backdrop until we get to heaven, something secondary and expendable. Mater becomes inspirited; it breathes divinity. Earth comes alive and sacred. And we find ourselves alive in the midst of her and forever altered.” NeedsBookBodyHappensEarthSpiritualityHeavenChurchConsciousnessForeverAliveDivineSacredMereNotionBreatheHolinessDivinityMidstFeminineGoddessDogmaImageryAlteredTheologicalTranscendentLiturgyBackdropDivine FeminineNeed GodExpendables Author:Sue Monk Kidd
