A Delicate Winged Boy

"In Greek, the word for sibling is adelphos, which literally means 'from the same womb.' We have all been birthed into existence by the same formless womb, and therefore, we are all siblings... When you realize your Source, you have no choice but to see everyone as a close relative. Each time you interact with another person, you experience both yourself and that person being loved into existence by the Source. It's not a belief or an emotion, but a direct sensory experience that's always there. So it's easy and natural to care for others." —Shinzen Young
