…the unfolding of the soul is an increase in relationality and engagement. The more the soul has unfolded, the more the person is making it a priority to “improve the neighborhood,” and to find meaning in life in relationships and in creativity and in activism. Our interest in spirituality and social justice is present in the wholeness of our own heritage, which holds these two together in an integrated way. The illuminated, unfolded soul is a presence of creativity and blessing and engagement in the world.

The unfolding of our capacities is the rising of the presence of God, the incarnating of the presence of God! We are, as human beings, the dwelling place of God and divinity in the world. The calling forth of our power is the emergence of divine presence in the world…To unfold the soul in our heritage is to foster related and engaged human beings…The illuminated, unfolded soul is a presence of creativity and blessing and engagement in the world.
