The universe is progressing in a direction toward greater conscious awareness, & self-understanding.

All around us, to right and left, in front and behind, above and below, we have only to go a little beyond the frontier of sensible appearances in order to see the divine welling up and showing through.


But it is not only close to us, in front of us, that the divine presence has revealed itself. It has sprung up universally, and we find ourselves so surrounded and transfixed by it, that there is no room left to fall down and adore it, even within ourselves.

By means of all created things, without exception, the divine assails us, penetrates us and moulds us.
We imagined it as distant and inaccessible, whereas in fact we live steeped in its burning layers.


As Jacob said, awakening from his dream, the world, this palpable world, which we were wont to treat with the boredom and disrespect with which we habitually regard places with no sacred association for us, is in truth a holy place, and we did not know it.
( Teilhard de Chardin)


I find his writings meaningful, inspiring in enlightenment that transpires all over this universe.
