“It is in our convergence and solidarity that we renew each other, the light expands and God, as Love, is visible.”

“There is a communion with God, and a communion with the earth, and a communion with God through the earth.”

“As humans and societies we seem separate but in our roots we are part of an indivisible whole and share in the same cosmic process.”

“We live to be born over and over again into higher realms of existence…”

“It is time to wake up—for something new is about to happen in our midst.”

“Deep down, the consciousness of humankind is one. This is a virtual certainty because even in the vacuum, matter is one; and if we don’t see this, it’s because we are blinding ourselves to it.”

“We have the capacity for more life but do we have the will?”

“As human beings and societies we seem separate, but in our roots we are part of an indivisible whole and share in the same cosmic process.”

“Realize that insight is the midwife of new life. Know yourself to be a thinker and thus a participant in the motherhood of God.”

“The whole history of the universe, and particularly the history of biological life on earth, has been characterized by the steady emergence of complexity.”

“A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.”

“The foundation of things is not so much a ground of being sustaining its existence from beneath as it is a power of attraction toward what lies ahead.”

“Evolution is not a linear positive progression; rather, it is movement in tension marked by gains and losses in the development of more complex life forms.”

“Only a God who is functionally and totally ‘Omega’ can satisfy us. Who will at last give evolution its own God?”

“No longer is it simply a religion of individual and of heaven, but a religion of mankind and of the earth—that is what we are looking for at this moment, as the oxygen without which we cannot breathe.”

“What is happening under our eyes within the mass of peoples? What is the cause of this disorder in society, this uneasy agitation, these swelling waves, these whirling and mingling currents and these turbulent and formidable new impulses?”

“If the Church is founded on the Good News of Jesus Christ, how did it become so radically disconnected from the itinerant preacher from Nazareth?”

“Evolution is a general condition to which all theories, all hypotheses, all systems must submit and satisfy from now on in order to be conceivable and true.”

“The universe is a story still being told.”

“…the emergence of human life is contingent on more than evolution of the physical world alone; there is an inner pressure for spiritual transcendence.”

“We are in each another holographically, this world and us: the whole of the “universe story” carved in our own hearts, and the whole of our own story reverberating within the cosmic heart.”

“If we could discover this great mystery of God in us, we would be truly free, and out of this freedom the seeds of our lives would sprout into a new world of justice and peace.”

“Creation is not about a static world but a relationship between the dynamic being of God and a world in process of coming to be.”

“Evolution rests on the power of love because what ignites the core of being is ultimately unitive and transformative.”

“God is born from within when we come to know ourselves in the divine love that lives deep within us. There too we discover that we are not strangers in this evolving universe. We are its future.”

“Religion is not a feeling of inspiration or motivation; neither is it static love. Rather, religion is the call to wholeness, to union-in-love. Every world religion shares in this call in its own unique way.”

“Love is the whole, and every human person desires to belong to the whole. Religion that empowers the whole empowers evolution for the next level of cosmic life.”

“Without religious convergence, evolution cannot go forward because we cannot harness the energies of love fro greater unity and being.”

“Everything begins with consciousness and culminates in a luminosity of conscious matter unified in love.”

“To live from the inner depth of love, as persons in evolution, is to live with purpose and direction not as an “I” but as a “we,” a collective whole.”

“Love is a sacred reserve of energy; it is like the blood of spiritual evolution.”

“There is nothing profane here below for those who know how to see.”

“To know God as the wholeness of love is to enter into oneness at the heart of all life.”

“Our duty, as men and women is to proceed as if limits to our ability did not exist. We are collaborators in creation.”

“Evolution is not driven by more information but by more being and consciousness.”

“A world opened to the future does not negate the present; rather it makes the present rich in possibilities to create something new.”

“To co-create with God is to gather the many fields of the mind into a consciousness of love.”

“The present is eternity in the now. We are able to embrace this moment by emptying ourselves into it and surrendering to life’s energy flow… Every choice in the present creates the future.”

“The whole person is the creative person who explores and animates the universe out of an inner sense of freedom and participates in its evolution toward unity.”

“We have the power to create a new world, and we have the power to destroy this one. How we choose depends on how we grasp this moment as the kiss of God, impelling us to stand up and speak.”

“Our vocation is not simply to be, but to work together with God in the creation of our own life, our own identity, our own destiny.”

“The development of technology expresses the human’s self-development and self-expression through matter; it is integral to being the image of God and thus integral to authentic self realization.”

“Where there is love and forgiveness, there is hope for a new reality.”

“What is happening under our eyes within the mass of peoples? What is the cause of this disorder in society, this uneasy agitation, these swelling waves, these whirling and mingling currents and these turbulent and formidable new impulses? ”

“I bless you matter…I acclaim you as the divine milieu, charged with creative power, as the ocean stirred by the Spirit, as the clay molded and infused with life by the incarnate Word.”

“We have enormous power to heal this wounded world through merciful love, loving hearts which welcome the stranger and accept the suffering of another as our own.”

“An interpretation of the universe…remains unsatisfying unless it covers the interior as well as the exterior of things.”

“By means of all created things, without exception, the divine assails us, penetrates us, and molds us.”

“God wants to become something new in us but we must trust God sufficiently to engage this new birth.”

“There’s an inner energy to human love, and that inner energy is consciousness.”

“The gathering body of universal compassion is not about to let itself be dismantled!”

“If we can meet one another on that path of the inner spirit, the path of the inner mystic, the path of the cosmic heart, we will come to a new planetization, a new Oneness.”

“What are the new unions forming in our lives? What are the greater wholes we are moving into?”

“We can know God with our hearts as the mystery of Love, source of life and healing, dwelling with us and in us in love.”

“Cosmically speaking, love is the power that sustains everything but that also calls the universe toward a future of new and richer being.”

“Our God is an open God, a changing God, a novel God, a God who is becoming in and through cosmic life. This is the core meaning of incarnation; it is the story of Christmas.”
