"Spirituality is a domain of awareness where we experience the sacred, where we experience the universal ... The spirit is a real force. It's abstract, but it's real."

"What gives people meaning ultimately, is knowing who they really are. I think man has eternally been obsessed with wanting to know where we come from, what is the meaning of this soap opera we participate in, and what happens after we die. All other anxieties and all other fears are actually the fear of mortality in disguise."
