OM, a sacred template for the Four Baskets
OM—you are probably familiar with this sound, you may have heard it in a spiritual documentary or even chanted it yourself at the end of a yoga class. OM, more correctly written AUM, has been described as the primordial sound of creation, the mathematical code of the universe, the vibration from which everything arises, the secret seed of life, death and creation, a representation of the infinite consciousness of God.

Spiral to the Center
…the Four Baskets journey helps us become aware of ourselves at the most basic level-- tracing the threads and patterns of our lives to their origin, like tracing a spiral back to the center -- where we find our blueprint of wholeness, and remember our intrinsic connection to a unified whole. That is where we can step fully into a realization of a connected mind-body-spirit; a knowing that we are inseparable from nature; an embodiment of oneness with all others and the divine. ..
