"This is the lesson of the chalice, which can only be sipped from a being who has won himself over in totality. When your life becomes an outpouring for all of creation, when you have tended to your inner discrepancies with thread and needle and have woven them back into your soul, piece by fragmented piece, when you have taken a full inventory of the harm and duress you have caused others, when you are able to view your life and your integrity with the honesty of the silver-raised-palm; only then can you even begin to proceed to sip from the chalice of the one-life-force of all... for until you have made amends with yourself, this sacred elixir will be unavailable to you."
~Arkana Rose from the work of 'The Pristine Belonging'
