“When a man or woman directs his or her attention to questions of ultimate reality— which are in their essence the questions of the nature of God—something awakens within us and calls to us; when a man or woman directs his or her attention to questions of ultimate value and ultimate obligation—which are also in their essence the questions of the nature of God and God’s need of us—something within us awakens and calls to us. That awakening something has no interest in material, worldly needs or attractions; no interest in pleasure or success or money or being first. I am calling it the soul (or the Self) for lack of a better word. It is not interested in what the me wants. It wishes only to live and grow and be.”
