Lest I Founder

The fear of failure is the source of regret: strategies of control invariably disempower and weaken the controlled. Does fear protect, or merely appear to justify self-preservation? The thought of spiritual ruin cannot enter the mind that does not seek to make real the forays of others. Sign in to see full entry.

Prosperity

Abundance is more than the belief in acquirement. Is not the belief that acquirement be the source of abundance really the cause of poverty? What one wants can never be sated; nor, can it create security. Prosperity is acknowledgment, then demonstration of knowing one's true identity. From this... Sign in to see full entry.

The Teacher

He comes at most inauspicious times. He is usually in disguise, as he is unaware of his role. Is a teacher renowned for what he knows, or what he shows? The world is but a reflection of ourselves. Sign in to see full entry.

Elixir of Contentment

Question its source, and its spell will have been broken: contentment is the nectar of God. It is each person's responsibility not to create contentment, but to prepare the way for its manifestation.

The Pendulum

A recorder of achievement; a bringer of justice; a measurement of experience- the pendulum swings inexorably forward, only to fall back again. Can forward movement exist without an equal setback?

Windows of the Soul

Look into the windows, which cannot conceal what they reflect. Are they kind or indifferent? Are they hardened by denial, or clouded by guilt? Do not the eyes that truly see remain motionless?

The Edge of Forever

There is nowhere else to be; there is no one else to become; there is nothing else to do. Can I move forward through retrogression? Stand still, and glimpse the edge of forever.

The Conundrum of Love

Love is what we are; but, we need something to love in order to experience love. One became two to experience itself as whole and unblemished.

Decision Maker

What is looked upon is a result of what has been seen, and either denied or upheld. For even in denial, what is seen is but a choice to see through default about what is not there. Who is the one who decides? Is he not himself a decision, a result of what is decided? A world that is peaceful is no... Sign in to see full entry.

Nothing Special

If nothing be special, then life becomes extraordinary. It is the choosing that clouds the sun. If I make the choiceless choice, might my open arms become full? Reaching the sacred ground requires no pilgrimage, but rather a decision to acknowledge its form instead of yours. Sign in to see full entry.
