Casper ter Kuile
“In a conversation with Buddhist teacher Sharon Salzberg recorded in 1998, he explained, “I can’t believe in any of this stuff about creating community. I think the whole project of trying to build community is misplaced. I think community is. It is ontologically there. So, the project is more about awakening.” For him, connection is remembered, or revealed, because we are already “dangerously involved with each other in an incredibly intimate but unseen way.” That’s what it means to be human. Connection just is. We are each connected to every other thing.”
Casper ter Kuile, The Power of Ritual: Turning Everyday Activities into Soulful Practices

Holly B. Rogers
“In the same way that exercise can change both the appearance and the strength of our muscles, meditation can change both the structure and the effectiveness of our brains.”
Holly B. Rogers, The Mindful Twenty-Something: Life Skills to Handle Stress…and Everything Else

Radha Agrawal
“Recognizing and honoring our unique qualities and authentic gifts is key to developing self-confidence. But sharing our unique gifts with the greater whole is vital to our humanity.”
Radha Agrawal, Belong: Find Your People, Create Community, and Live a More Connected Life

“The great environmental activist John Seed embodies this when he says, “I try to remember that it’s not me, John, trying to protect the rainforest. Rather, I am part of the rainforest protecting itself. I am that part of the rainforest recently emerged into human thinking”
Casper ter Kuile, The Power of Ritual: Turning Everyday Activities into Soulful Practices

Radha Agrawal
“Be gently aware of your self-labeling and your labeling of others and ask yourself if it's separating or connecting you to others.”
Radha Agrawal, Belong: Find Your People, Create Community, and Live a More Connected Life
