Māras zemi staigājot, ir būtiski pašu svarīgāko nosargāt, jo materiālā pasaule mūsu acu priekšā reizēm liekās vienīgā un 'īstā' un spiež uz priekšrocību. Rakstnieks Iain Thomas tik trāpīgi atgādina: "Un katru dienu, pasaule vilks tevi aiz rokas, kliedzot 'Šis ir svarīgi! Un šis ir svarīgi! Un šis ir svarīgi! Tev ir jāuztraucas par šo! Un šo! Un šo! Un katru dienu, tas paliek tavā ziņā paraut savu roku atpakaļ, pielikt to pie savas sirds un teikt, 'Nē. Šis ir tas, kas ir svarīgi.'
Walking Māras land (the physical world), it is essential for us to protect that which is most important, because the material world in front of our eyes seems like the only and 'real' one, pushing for precedence. Writer Iaian Thomas so eloquently reminds us: "And every day, the world will drag you by the hand, yelling, “This is important! And this is important! And this is important! You need to worry about this! And this! And this!” And each day, it’s up to you to yank your hand back, put it on your heart and say, “No. This is what’s important."
I went to the sea to sew coins
I carried my soul in the palm of my hand
The sea's coins are valuable
My soul is valuable
All the white coins of the sea
Are not worth my soul
Lai notiek tā!
