The greatest human quest is to find higher expressions of Love, and experience them.

This collection is dedicated to the Love Quest in its various manifestations, human and divine.

In Love's reflections with Deity, we look inside ourselves to find the Grace that all great spiritual teachers say resides there.

In Love's reflections with our brothers and sisters, we search for that balance of giving and receiving that becomes Soul Sharing, and which can energize a new world reality.

These tracks are episodes along the path to find an ever-higher Love. I hope you find them insightful and encouraging. And may we all find the Higher Love that leads to Inner Peace and Outer Expression. - Jim Cleveland
