Sutras can serve as a prayer or breaths of quietude of the busy mind. Sutras are basic forms of almost all ancient religions such as Hinduism and Buddhism and of early Indian philosophers who did not work with written texts. Sutras were memorized, chanted and recited for thousands of years and to this day as a way toward enlightenment and higher God consciousness, transcending self and outer world. Sutras in nursing can serve as ancient universal truths to live and evolve by, uniting with consciousness for caring and healing. Who better to help our collective healing and recovery than nurses? These nurses and caregivers narratives are an offering, providing a platform in which to reflect on our own beliefs and values. The unifying thread points to love as the highest level of consciousness and greatest source for all healing. With contributions from nurses and caregivers throughout the USA: Jean Watson Sean M.
