In a society that tries to standardize thinking, individuality is not highly prized.

I use a lot of different words for God - infinite intelligence, primordial, perfection or universal creativity. All of these, to me, are God. And 'God' is a word, I think, that some people feel uncomfortable with, so they can use another word, you know? It's the great mystery.

Spiritual teachers and artists that have opened the eye of wisdom for the world, and visionary community builders, have influenced my work.

I acknowledge the privilege of being alive in a human body at this moment, endowed with senses, memories, emotions, thoughts, and the space of mind in its wisdom aspect.
