“I had realized long ago that the journey of the Four Winds
represented an ancient formula for transformation: shed
the past that restrains us (particularly the myth that we were
born outcasts from Paradise), confront and overcome the
fears of the future and death that paralyze us, and we may
live fully in the present; apply the skills learned along the
way to access a sea of consciousness as vast as time itself, then
find a vehicle for expressing the experience with beauty and
living as a caretaker of the Earth.”
