I had the privilege of having our Conversation of the Century this month with Judy
Cannato. As I mentioned in a prior letter, I believe it is one of the most touching,
poignant and inspiring conversations I have had. Please read the following description
of our conversation before you listen to the recording by clicking on the link at the end
of this letter.
Judy Cannato embodies the universe! She IS the universe in person. As a magnificent author, teacher and explorer of the meaning of the story of the universe in our lives, she has written two seminal books: "Radical Amazement: Contemplative Lessons From Black Holes, Supernovas, and Other Wonders of the Universe," and " Field of Compassion: How the New Cosmology is Transforming Spiritual Life." These books have inspired so many of us to experience the field of universal creativity within ourselves and our world.
In our conversation, Judy spoke about the fact that she has an aggressive form of cancer. I asked her that since she is embodying the universe story within herself, "What is the meaning of cancer from the point of view of
universal evolution? " She responded that she is experiencing this profound challenge as Spirit itself emerging further through her as her personal conscious evolution. Judy said that she is willing to share her journey with us so that we can be in communion with her. Judy’s sharing of her transformation will support not only our learning about how to transform cancer but to whatever crisis we may personally or socially be facing, knowing we are not doing any of this alone.
At the end we both prayed and I had an amazing insight. I realized that cancer is the body’s panicked effort to grow without a plan. When it succeeds, it fails. It kills the host in which it proliferates.
Through my Foundation for Conscious Evolution (FCE) I have set up The Judy Cannato Medical Fund to help raise much needed monies to pay for the cost of medical expenses amounting to $40,000 for a promising treatment Judy will receive in Mexico. I ask all of you, the conscious evolutionaries who are on this journey together now on this list, friends and colleagues, to please help with whatever contributions you are able to give to make sure Judy receives the treatment she needs now.
You may make a tax deductible donation to The Judy Cannato Medical Fund online through the Foundation
for Conscious Evolution and all donations made to the Foundation through August 25 will be directed exclusively to her medical treatment. Click here to make an online donation.
