Part 1
I was honored to speak at the Tohono O'odham Indian Reservation in Southern Arizona. It was an excellent opportunity to explain the teachings of The Path and share the truth about Love—that it is a medicine and a birthright for all the Hoops (cultures) inhabiting our planet. "If Fear is the illness that kills; Love is the medicine that heals."
Self-love, children, race, relationships, and health are all profoundly impacted by our dance with Love and Fear. As we begin to understand Fear as an illness that injures all aspects of our being, we can see how essential Love to our healing and the health and well-being of our lives. In its greatness, Love is the mirror reflection of the real heart and soul of every human being. "We are perfect, but we are ill."

Part 2
What role does Love play in healing the separation and racism between the different races and cultures on our planet? "Why did the white race behave as they did, and why did the people of color accept their version of reality?" Without self-love, as individual beings or races, were we, every one of us, responsible for creating the roles of the oppressor and the oppressed? Can Love heal the illness of Fear that has, thus, plagued all of humanity?
In Part 2 of my lecture, I address these issues and more as we take an in-depth look at Love and the all abiding truth that we must embrace Love—as a birthright, a medicine, and a way of life. Only then can we let go of continuing to allow Fear to stop us from loving ourselves and each other.

Part 3
As I listened to Part 3 of my lecture, I was struck by how familiar my words
are to me; these words I speak about Love. This Love is my dearest ally, my medicine, and the path upon which I walk my life each day. How can this energy, whose bigness is more extraordinary than we can ever imagine, be so powerful and tender and so accessible to every human being? I don’t know how it is, only that it is so. My life’s work has been to find the familiar words, the ones that will touch us and resonate with our souls. The words that will convey the truth of Love’s Love for us and all that we are.
The words that can express how, in loving yourself, you open the door to your heart and allow Love to heal you, and shift your reality from Fear to Love. How in loving yourself, it empowers you to become strong and self-responsible. How when you love yourself, you find the key to knowing who you are and living the life that you choose to live.
