Quote of the month:

"Compassion is passion without attachment"



“The beating of the human heart is the singular, most powerful signature we have as individual beings. Life is impossible without it. It begins beating in the womb long before birth without our knowing how, and in perfect calibration with first and early childhood brain waves; our birthright tuning. Ah - primal and causal - a’ root sound’ – a “source vibration” so they say in esoteric schools . And, like a fingerprint, no two hearts are alike. What if, as the ancients said, there is ‘a song in every heart’s beat’…a song that can only be recognized and its wisdoms deciphered by its owner? What magic and messages of the spheres await us there…if only we could hear…if only we could hear.”  
"Etchings of the Heart” by Sally A. Ranney
