The ramifications of the May 1864 engagement, which involved only 10,000 troops, were substantial. Previous studies, however, focused on the Confederate side of the story.

La budeidad, la iluminación o el despertar significan lo mismo, y se alcanzan cuando uno llega a la frecuencia o al estado de paz y calma en su mente, en su corazón, en su cuerpo y en su espíritu. Es justo el punto en el que uno consigue olvidarse de sí mismo, acceder a la nada y atravesarla para encontrarse en el todo. Allí se fusiona con la luz del amor incondicional.

Escuchar a Suzanne forma parte de esa llamada de luz, de esa avanzadilla angélica que pretende traer desde las estrellas esa sed de justicia, esa necesidad de colmar nuestra existencia con un nuevo paradigma que pasa por la generosidad, por la sencillez, por valores que tienen que ver con una vida nueva, mejor, más amorosa y profunda.
