When Nicolaus Copernicus discovered the Earth wasn’t the center of the Universe, everything changed. When Frederick Miescher discovered DNA, everything changed again. When quantum physicists discovered our physical universe isn’t real, that it’s a hologram - everything ... wait! Nothing changed - yet. Now "Butterflies are Free to Fly: A New and Radical Approach to Spiritual Evolution" examines how quantum physics and recent scientific experiments are radically changing our understanding of life, our reality, and our spirituality, giving us a new model for the way our universe works and the practical steps to take toward true joy and excitement and peace of mind.

Carl Schmitt (1889-1989) was an extraordinary American artist. He combined the weight and substance of the European masters with the light and color of the Impressionists to create luminous paintings found in museums and private collections around the world.

He understood that men must not only know the truth and do the good, but learn to delight in the beautiful, and to judge and make beautiful things. This is ...

Does the Quixote Trail really exist? Its “existence” was given rise to by the character Don Quixote, created by Miguel Cervantes de Saavedra, in The Ingenious Gentleman Don Quixote of La Mancha (1605), the book we commonly refer to as Don Quixote. The Trail does have a certain existence in that it comes from the mind and travels of Cervantes, but the Quixote Trail itself is drawn from the fictional adventures of Don Quixote. In this book, the author takes a spiritual trip, following a virtual route, often on his own feet, attempting to piece together the mind and body of Cervantes--played out through the character and quests of Don Quixote and his squire, Sancho Panza ...

In all the lands of the earth there was not a land as majestic as the Land of Eden. There it was that the powers of the principalities of the angels were in alignment with the energies of nature and the emerging generations of the creations. Nowhere in the whole earth were the cycles of life more evident and better understood to lead to life, and life was understood to be a WHEEL. And the creatures were inspired by the beauty of the foliage, the flowers, and the plants...
