A reflection on the human need for reflective thoughts, stillness,
silence and the 'very natural spiritual dimension' that often gets
drowned out by surface life and its overload.
We know science is awesome, as are its achievements. Yet so far
scientists have managed to sidestep the most awesome reality of all, the
true nature of human life, the source of their own genius. How is it
that in the overwhelming immensity of the cosmos, on microscopic earth,
human beings exist?
We have not yet looked reality in the face and perceived the nobility
and grandeur of who we are, each of us having a responsibility in the
universe and being part of a vast and continuing process, which can only
emerge from the shadows and darkest corners of our thought when we step
aside away from all the noise.
You Matter encourages people to think more deeply about the phenomenon
of existence, what it means to be a unique human person, and how in
unity with one another we can build a future in these uncertain times.
