“You feel the peace as you settle into the silence that hope and possibility provide. Love of family, friends, love of your dog and cat, the fish in your pond, the birds on the wing, love of the sunrise and sunset … love of each other. A beautiful idea beautifully expressed in The Love.”


Seyyed Hossein Nasr, Ph.D., author of The Heart of Islam
“We are now at a moment of our earthly life that love must be present across religious boundaries. The spiritual paradigm based on love, therefore, addresses our human condition in a most timely manner.”


Dr. Michael Bernard Beckwith, founder of Agape International Spiritual Center
“This book skillfully and eloquently walks us on love’s true path. It is a trustworthy guide to healing our hearts, expanding our understanding, and clarifying our view of life’s main ingredient: unconditional love.”
