From heart to heart, from soul to soul, there is a call and a response. The Earth calls – out of a deep longing in the Earth for its sacred nature to be recognized, for its heart to be seen and known – for the Real to return. When humanity responds, recognizes the Real in life and offers it back to life, the heart of the world can open and all life can begin to sing.

…my being partakes of your being and that of all beings. This goes beyond interdependency – our very existence is relational…therefore, what we do to another, we do to ourselves.

~ Charles Eisenstein, from The More Beautiful World Our Hearts Know is Possible

When we surrender the need to figure it all out, and cultivate the ability to let it all in, then our earth walk becomes a sacred dance of healing service on the planet. More than the world needs saving, it needs loving.

When you enter a grove peopled with ancient trees, higher than the ordinary, and shutting out the sky with their thickly inter-twined branches, do not the stately shadows of the wood, the stillness of the place, and the awful gloom of this doomed cavern then strike you with the presence of a deity?

…everything in this world is connected – …everything we do to bring harmony, anywhere and at any time, has repercussions elsewhere. The same holds true if our intention is to bring disharmony.

Oh Eagle, come with wings outspread in sunny skies.
Oh Eagle, come and bring us peace, thy gentle peace.
Oh Eagle, come and give new life to us who pray.
Remember the circle of the sky, the stars, and the brown eagle,
the great life of the Sun, the young within the nest.
Remember the sacredness of things.

~ Pawnee Prayer

…every act we make, every word we speak, every thought we think is not only affected by the other elements in the vast web of being in which all things take part, but also has results so far-reaching that we cannot see or imagine them.

The greatest achievement was at first and for a time a dream. The oak sleeps in the acorn, the bird waits in the egg, and in the highest vision of the soul a waking angel stirs. Dreams are the seedlings of realities.

Through my love for you, I want to express my love for the whole cosmos, the whole of humanity, and all beings. By living with you, I want to learn to love everyone and all species. If I succeed in loving you, I will be able to love everyone and all species on Earth… This is the real message of love.

The birds and animals, trees and grasses, rocks, water and wind are our allies. They waken our senses, rouse our passions, renew our spirits and fill us with vision, courage, and joy…as long as the birds return and the flowers bloom, I will dream of a time when we value blue skies more than new automobiles, count our wealth in joy rather than possessions, and dwell in peace and balance with the Earth. I am not without hope.

More and more people are becoming aware that we must look at our “brokenness.” The trees, the rivers, the mountain, the rain, the earth, and the creatures of the fields and forests and seas have followed their paths of balancing all life. We know that in all creation, only a human family has strayed from the sacred way. We are the ones who must come back together to walk in the sacred way.

~ Kenneth Little Hawk , Native American Storyteller

It has always been the business of the great seers (known to India as ‘rishis,’ in biblical terms as “prophets,” to primitive folk as ‘shamans,’ and in our own day as ‘poets’ and ‘artists’) to perform the work of the first and second functions of a mythology by recognizing through the veil of nature, as viewed in the science of their times, the radiance, terrible yet gentle, of the dark, unspeakable light beyond, and through their words and images to reveal the sense of the vast silence that is the ground of us all and of all beings.
