“There aren’t two worlds – the physical and the spiritual -- there is only one: God’s Kingdom on Earth as it is in Heaven. Many of us pray, ‘Our Father who art in Heaven,’ thinking that God is up there, which creates the duality of the two worlds. A lot of people in the West like to keep matter and the spirit very comfortably and conveniently apart. All truth is one, all reality is one. As soon as we take the enfleshment of God, the incarnation which, for Christians, is represented by the person of Jesus Christ, then we start taking things seriously.” – Father Bert White
-- from Mother Teresa – A Simple Path
