The younger mind behind Hearts of Love
HEARTS OF LOVE JOURNAL
Early essays and reflections connected to Hearts of Love, written while Raz's understanding of Divine Love, the soul and human nature was still taking shape.
These translations preserve the intensity, certainty and uncertainty of a younger self. They are not rewritten to imitate the present Raz. Together, they reveal what endured, what deepened and what changed.
