“How do you see the world? Is there an actual relationship between you and what you see? To see with silent inner awareness is to see our true relationship with each other and with the natural world.”
Cynthia Overweg, Silent Awareness: The Revelation That Changes Everything

“If you close your eyes and ask yourself what you’d like to understand about divine or unconditioned love and whether it’s possible for you to connect with such love, you may discover a quiet, but unmistakable longing in your heart for a response. You may also sense that this heart-longing is what gives your question its energy. The sincere yearning of the heart for meaning and understanding is what drives the inner search. The wisdom and love that we endlessly seek resides silently in the goodness of our own heart.”
Cynthia Overweg, Silent Awareness: The Revelation That Changes Everything
