The Question Is...

Is humankind the only animal that struggles with its existence? We are animals, a part of the animal kingdom. No doubt about that. No special life was breathed into our nostrils. No special place in the universe do we hold.

Man's nature is to dominate. Woman's nature is to nurture. That is what has allowed us to continue to survive and develop. But we know experientially that we can sense or connect with another energy, one that let's us feel what it is like to transcend the physical. It is that energy, that consciousness that opens the door to all the mystical experiences, enlightenment, awakening, higher self, realization. Call it what you will, it inspires something different than the survival instincts that we share with all living creatures.

The question is, "Why do we experience it?"
