Awareness of Love...

"When you desire to eat or drink,

or fulfill other worldly desires,

and you
focus your awareness on the love of God,

then you elevate that desire to
spiritual desire.

Thereby you draw out the holy spark that dwells within.

You
bring forth holy sparks from the material world.

There is no path greater than
this.

For wherever you go and whatever you do -- even mundane activities -- you
serve God."
