Subject: Female Spiritual Perspective
Speaks of emotional (non objective) experiences in spiritual terms. Makes reference to "The Mother". Suggests, paradoxically, that death is a necessary part of life. Beautiful but mostly lacking in pragmatic value. Balanced somewhat by references to Buddhism, Christianity, and physical (real world) examples. A pleasant, but temporary, escape from reality.
