Quotes from the same author

When we see all women as the divine mother and all men as the divine father, everyone you meet is sacred.
 Stephen Levine
When the heart acknowledges how much pain there is in the mind, it turns like a mother toward a frightened child.
 Stephen Levine
We are motivated more by aversion to the unpleasant than by a will toward truth, freedom, or healing. We are constantly attempting to escape our life, to avoid rather than enter our pain we, and we wonder why it is so difficult to be fully alive. (43)

It is not for the concept, but for the experience, that we use the term the Beloved. The experience of this enormity we falteringly label divine is unconditioned love. Absolute openness, unbounded mercy and compassion. We use this concept, not to name the unnameable vastness of being-- our greatest joy-- but to acknowledge and claim as our birthright the wonders and healings within.
