But what it means is I honor you.
to keep what is true in view, the portion of universal spirit that resides in you.
So in the West, we call that soul.
In the East, they call it Atman, Buddha nature.
Christianity calls it the Holy Ghost.
Judaism calls it Yahweh.
You know, I mean, there's a thousand names.
And so what I believe, and that's just my point on the circle in the Elder Council, is that
that just like the air in a bluebird house is a little portion of the sky.
We call it the soul here, but we each carry a portion of universal spirit while we're here.
So to become intimate with that allows us to be the inlet or the conduit between the world of spirit that's existed forever and going to the grocery store.
And so the heart, again, has to stay open, has to stay this open vessel between all of time and all of life and the person you help up who dropped their groceries.
And that's why we need to be intimate with our own nature so that we have access to more.
There's a paradox that by knowing who I am, I can gain access to all I am not.
I'll give you a very personal example that really, when my father was toward the end of his life, and he lived to be 93, and we were estranged for many years.
And then in his 80s, we reconnected, which I was so grateful for.
And he was a master woodworker.
I was his firstborn son, but we never spoke the same language, although I learned so much about creativity from him.
He didn't teach it, but by watching him.
So at the end of his life, he had had a stroke and was in the hospital.
