Compassionate Awareness is about experiencing life to the fullest, and allowing the compassion of God to flow through us into the world in mystical, awakened living. "To be absorbed in compassionate awareness means that we receive life with an open heart and tend to it one moment at a time.

This publication breaks new ground by introducing the community college b...
