About This Quote
The spiritual life is the life of faith, hope, and love. It is the life of trust in eternal truth. The spiritual being in which we participate is not something physical or physical-like. Rather, it is an inner state or experience in which we participate in the same way that a person who lives in a dream participates.
We are not asleep in this dream. Rather, we are awake and fully aware that our life is only a dream within a greater dream.
