“It moves the entire experience to the cellular body corporeal breath level and it means, that the first word you ever spoke when you came out of your mother’s womb was the name of God and the last word you will ever speak you don’t have to try to remember, do I want to say a prayer before I die? You’re going to anyway that last breath you take on your deathbed will be the name of God and it’s the one thing you’ve done constantly in your life, you are doing it now. You’re breathing and you know what there’s not a Catholic way of breathing and an Anglican way of breathing there’s not a Protestant way of breathing there’s not an American way of breathing there’s not an English way of breathing there’s not a Buddhist way of breathing there’s not a Hindu way of breathing there’s not a Muslim way of breathing we’re all doing this together and this wonderful God, has made the God self that available, that democratic that accessible, the gift is given the only problem is the gift is not being received we label religion into a series of moral achievements, make religion into a bunch of hoops that you got to jump through and about a bunch of forms that you got to bow down to, instead of leading people to know something to be true for themselves.”
