It is the disconnection from each other and from the love of the Creator that societies crumble, and oppression takes its throne. Yet ‘Revolutions’ reminds us that the Creator’s love endures, a flicker of light even in the shadows. That it is love, the sacred bond among lovers, withstands the weight of mighty empires and the darkness of separation. The oppressors in the world outside are the mirrors of our disconnect from the love that resides forever within. And, the simple awareness of the beloved who eternally dwells within shatters the mirror that separates the Union.
