“The vitality of a human life can be measured by the intensity of one's desire. We know we are truly alive when we experience a drive for the "more" life. Human desire or longing is the source of our spiritual energy.”

“If the driving force behind bettering human life is our insatiable desire to escape mortality what will we do when we succeed?”

“Only when we can accept God as he is can we give up the desire for spiritual experiences that we can feel.”

“There is a desire within each of us,in the deep center of ourselves that we call our heart.We were born with it, it is never completely satisfied,and it never dies.We are often unaware of it, but it is always awake. It is the Human desire for Love.Every person in this Earth yearns to love,to be loved, to know love.Our true identity, our reason for beingis to be found in this desire. Love is the "why" of life,why we are functioning at all.I am convincedit is the fundamental energy of the human spirit.the fuel on which we run,the wellspring of our vitality. And grace, which is the flowing,creative activity, of love itself,is what makes all goodness possible. Love should come first,it should be the beginning of,and the reason for everything.”

“We are not human beings living a spiritual life. We are spiritual beings living a human life.”

“Spirituality is NOT the gauge at which we should measure our humanity.”
