"The Practice of the Presence of God," compiled by Father Joseph de Beaufort, is a collection of the wisdom and teachings of Brother Lawrence, a 17th century Carmelite monk. This collection of letters and other records records his conversations, thoughts, and philosophy, chiefly a development of an awareness of the presence of God.
We cannot see outside what we are not inside. The universe is to us what the huge engine is to the miniature engine; and indication of any error in the tiny engine leads us to imagine trouble in the huge one.
-Swami Vivekananda
