To
live with a deep awareness of the elemental Oneness of all creation is
to partake of "God consciousness." Such experiential, rather than
merely intellectual, awareness of the profound connectedness is what I
hold to be the true meaning of being in "a state of grace." Awe at the
intricate wonders of creation and celebration of the cosmic unfolding
are the roots of worship.
