Awaken to a Peaceful Way of Living
When the mind is silent, it is capable of seeing the world as it is.
In this seeing we begin to transcend conflict and confusion.
We begin to understand who and what we are.
Our relationships become more meaningful.
Beauty and a sense of wonder fill our lives.
And a transformation of consciousness happens without effort.
