..I--and everyone else--was part of God, part of the totality. Our connectedness at this level was a core aspect of creation and--if we choose to acknowledge it--a strong basis for compassion and co-existence in our earthly lives. These insights didnt come in through my brain, as if Id read a brilliant new book. I directly experienced these understandings without filtering them through my mind. I saw what I saw, I learned what I learned, by being in the middle of it. John Graham, leader of the Giraffe Heroes Project, a nonprofit organization that honors people who stick their necks out for the common good. ..Through his meditative experiences, he had increasingly come to believe that the reason he came into this life, and the reason he had not been killed during many close calls of his wild adventures, was to serve and to heal. Thus the sign he sought came through healing--not of himself, but of another. ..Graham found that dimension of consciousness where all souls meld, that ocean that is God, that collective composite where diversity is made whole through oneness. Larry Dossey, M.D., author of One Mind
