             Unity is sought
       Due to thoughts of division
           Within a split mind
        That searches for Liberty
    From its own thoughts of bondage.

Dear Uriah,

The unity which is sought springs not from the mind but the very depths of being itself. The heart has reasons which the mind knows not about.  Check out this on the internet: www.heartmath.org

of course Brother John
But the heart, brain, and any other "object" seen as part of "you" or "seperate" is dependant upon the Mind.  Science can lay the heart or the brain upon a table and study it.
Phenomena love phenomenon.  But they have yet to locate the Mind.  Mind is simply the thought...  "i"    And examining its boundaries is like measuring your shadow....with your foot.

Intellectually I know that Canada is no better than any other country. Emotionally I KNOW that Canada is the best country in the world!

divided waters flowing

Thank you all.
