#AnamCara means “Soul Friend.” Anam is the Gaelic word for soul & Cara is the word for friend. In Celtic tradition, an Anam Cara is a teacher, companion or spiritual guide. -John Chianelli

The question isn't what happens to a beloved Anam Cara when they die. The question is what will happen to its timeless connection in our hearts, after their death. Will we maintain that sacred soul connection or not? That's the ultimate Zen koan. It leaves one hand clapping in the dust.

When you learn to love and to let your self be loved, you come home to the hearth of your own spirit. You are warm and sheltered. .

It is here, in this icon of human presence, that divinity in creation comes nearest to itself. The human face is the icon of creation. Each person also has an inner face, which is always sensed but never seen. The heart is the inner face of your life. The human journey strives to make this inner face beautiful. #spirituality #JohnODonohue #AnamCara
