At the deepest level communication
is not communication but communion.
It is wordless, it is beyond words, and
it is beyond concept.
What we have to recover [re-discover] is
our original unity [within].

Everything we have ever achieved we owe to the inexplicable
urge to reach beyond our grasp, [and] know the Unknown.
This urge is part of our evolutionary heritage, given to us for
the ultimate adventure: to discover who we are, what the
universe is, and what is the significance of the brief drama
of life and death we play out against the backdrop of
eternity.
