"Three things accompany the dead to the grave. Two of them return and the other stays with him. They are; his family, his property, and his deeds. His family and property leave him in the grave and come back, his deeds only stay with him." Your deeds (alone) are faithful: make of them your refuge, for they will come with you into the depths of the tomb.
Rumi

There is a distance between believing the Truth and embodying that Truth. We may know that we are children of God with divine capacities, but until we act on that belief, it remains a foggy awareness. Using spiritual practices moves us from believing in God to becoming aware of the reality of God moving in and through us.

"The flame of love is not different from you; it is you. It isn't that love is there and you are here. You and love are one and the same."
