Higher Tea: A Sip of Inspiration

The fact that modern physics…is now making contact with mysticism, …shows very beautifully the unity and complementary nature of the rational and intuitive modes of consciousness…-Fritjof Capra

Thanks for sharing your hummingbird experience, Kim. It is a wonderful example of the powerful symbolism of nature and how we are reminded of the beauty around us. As you said, these special moments remind us to pause, breathe and appreciate life. They also remind us of the perfection and miracle of Creation.

Hummingbirds are symbols of joy, love and beauty. They hover in the moment and dart lightly through the world spreading their magical message of peace and joy. No wonder they are so fascinating. This is why the Franz Hummingbird teacup appears on the cover of my book, Higher Tea: The Essence of Joy.

As we become more conscious, our intuition awakens. We begin to recognize more subtle realms of existence. Beyond what we see and hear—beyond our five basic senses—we can understand and appreciate what every aspect of the Universe represents.

Our lives are blessed with countless opportunities to learn and grow, to experience the Divine in every creature and in every moment. This expansion in consciousness and the ability to perceive Essence and Truth beyond the obvious are gifts of grace. We have much for which to be thankful.
